Charlotte Wedding Entertainment: DJ vs. Live Band

Charlotte wedding DJs typically cost $800-$3,000 for 4-5 hours of music, MC services, and basic sound equipment. Live bands range from $3,000-$8,000+ depending on the number of musicians. Some couples opt for a hybrid approach: a band for cocktail hour and a DJ for the reception.

When interviewing DJs, ask about their backup plan if equipment fails, whether they've worked at your venue before, and if they offer uplighting or photo booth add-ons.
