Services and Pricing...
Here is a quick quote from a Gentlemen I spoke to at a cocktail party few years ago when I told
him I was a DJ...
"Ya know we went to wedding last weekend. They had a chocolate fountain, doves, ice
sculpture, exquisite dinner, and it was at a swanky hotel. Her cousins friend was the DJ...He
was terrible. We went home early. Our friends that stayed said he did a really bad job.

Rates for the DJ industry vary greatly, ranging from $350.00 to $3,500.00 with an average of
$1,200.00 for a 4 hour booking. The best price is not always the best deal, especially if you are
planning a wedding. As a matter of fact, surveys conclude that nearly 100% of brides would
have spent more money on their entertainment and made it their #1 priority in hindsight. Visit
our Wedding Central page for more wedding tips. Or you may visit the "DJ Selecting Tips" page
for some good DJ hiring tips.
A full-service disc jockey company like ProTouch will normally invest 12 to 30 hours to your
special event but it may appear that you are only paying for "4 hours". Consultations, music
purchasing & editing, preparation, set-up and tear-down, contribute the overall success of
your special occasion.
So why are the ProTouch rates so competitive?
To maintain affordable rates compared to other DJ companies we keep our operation simple.
However,in no way do we compromise quality of service. We have a home based, low overhead
approach and don't use extra staff like "roadies" to set up and break down equipment for our
events. We do it all ourselves.
Our music library is extensive enough to minimize music procurement. Our user friendly website
enables clients to create and manage your timeline and music requests. You can even make
payments online as early or as often as you like!
* Standard services always include:
- An excellent industrial audio grade sound system capable of providing sound for events
of up to 1000 people.
- Extensive music library which will always include your own "Must Play" and "Do Not Play"
music list.
- Wireless and Wired microphones.
- Dance lighting sufficient for a 5,000 square foot dance area ( 50' x 50' )
- Advice and consultation throughout your booking period to the day of your event!
