A DJ or A Band First thing is do you want a DJ or a band. Both can do a great job but there are few decisions you need to consider when deciding for your self. How much do you want to spend? DJ's are slightly less expansive than a band. Bands can often cost anywhere between $1000 to as much as $10,000. The average DJ price is around $800. Another question is the style of music your looking for. There is nothing better than live music but unfortunately only a few bands are able to have the range that DJ can.
