When to get a DJ
MiniDJ is a great fit for many events, but there are certainly times when a DJ or production company is a better choice. However, if MiniDJ isn't the right fit, then keep in mind that a budget DJ likely won't be either. If the following apply to your event, then you'll want to budget for a premium, professional DJ which typically start at $1500-2500.
- Large events with hundreds of guests.
- Large venues requiring multiple speakers for complete sound coverage.
- Events requiring skilled DJs that can mix live (e.g. high school prom).
- Events requiring lighting design and production.
- Events requiring a very large sound system with a lot of bass.
- Weddings requiring extensive planning and custom coordination.
- Custom video, sound, or lighting production.
