Wedding DJ prices can be difficult to compare because apparently similar quotations do not always include the same performance time, equipment, planning or level of experience. The most useful question is not simply “What is the cheapest price?” but “What will be included, and who will be responsible for the evening?”
We Perform’s standard wedding disco package is £550 for 7:30pm until midnight. It includes a professional wedding DJ, sound equipment, dance-floor lighting and a private online client event page for planning your music and key moments.
What is included in the £550 wedding disco package?
- A professional wedding DJ from 7:30pm until midnight
- Suitable sound equipment and dance-floor lighting
- A private client event page
- First-dance and important-moment planning
- Your must-play and do-not-play choices
- Guest requests where they suit your plans
- Communication and preparation before the wedding
If your venue, access arrangements or timings require something different, tell us when enquiring so that everything can be discussed clearly before you book.
Why do wedding DJ prices vary?
Prices can reflect the DJ’s experience, performance length, preparation, equipment, travel, insurance and the practical requirements of the venue. An experienced wedding DJ also has to judge the room throughout the night, bring different generations together and adapt when the planned timeline changes.
We Perform has supported more than 1,000 weddings and events and has received consistent positive feedback for more than ten years. That experience informs the planning before the wedding as well as the music decisions made on the night.
Can we choose our own wedding music?
Yes. Once booked, you receive a personalised online event page where you can add favourite songs, your first dance, essential tracks, do-not-play choices, timings and instructions. You can provide a detailed selection or just the songs that matter most to you.
Your choices give the evening its character. The DJ then uses those choices alongside appropriate guest requests and professional judgement to keep the celebration flowing naturally.
Questions to ask before comparing quotations
- What performance times are included?
- Are sound and lighting included?
- Can we submit must-play and do-not-play choices?
- Who will actually perform at the wedding?
- How will the DJ prepare for our venue and timeline?
- What happens if the DJ becomes unavailable?
- Are there any additional travel, setup or finishing-time charges?
A clear answer to these questions makes it much easier to compare value rather than price alone.
