I went there last weekend too. Did you see that guy that is both an officiant and a dj? He gave me the heeby jeebies. Anyways, yes, I agree that it is difficult to find a good dj on a budget. It's one of the biggest reception decisions, since they have such an influence on the ambiance of the party.
I'm curious who the inflatable instrument player is, though. That way I don't accidently choose them.

Ask for Brandon - he's AWESOME!
He can do lighting as well. :)
I asked my photographer for rec's and she gave me some excellent choices.
YES. I was so determined in finding someone that wasn't your club DJ or radio station type that would still play all the music I wanted without thinking I was an old fart but that was smooth and classy.
My wedding planner was not kidding when she gave me the recommendation because after our September 6 event recently, I am floored at how little direction I gave the DJ we selected from the company and how AWESOME he was at hitting my DJ soft spot. When I mean little direction, I mean I gave him my play list details for the reception (and a very minimal one) at the venue when I arrived for the ceremony. No, not two weeks before like they preferred. What can I say, I was a procrastinator (got sick before the wedding). We had discussed ceremony and cocktail music for about 10 minutes on the phone a few weeks prior. He understood exactly what I meant and I was thrilled.
PLEASE contact Denon and Doyle DJs (www.djay.com) and ask for Brian Holmes to be your DJ. They allow you to select a DJ and you can met any and all at a showcase. I booked him blindly based on the recommendation of my coordinator and also Mark Addington at Denon & Doyle.
Trust me when I mean smooth and classy; we had a black tie wedding with professionals (CPAs.....*snore*), our parents and their friends, AND students, and all three crowds were pleased
You'll love their rates. We paid about $1400 for 7 hours of non stop music.
I ended up going witn Brandon and Kami at http://www.soundimagedjs.com/
Kami and I worked together at Baskin Robbins many years ago! Brandon is the DJ/MC and Kami is a day-of-coordinator, which is a great bonus if you werent thinking of having one (or were, and going to pay seperately).
I'm really comfortable with the price and the people!
Hi Bees,
I am getting married in May and I am using Dj Jeremy.
http://www.djjeremyproductions.com/default.htm
I met with him in person, and he was extremely personable, professional and reasonable! He contacted me with a lot of information via email and was always very prompt.
He is a DJ at a Club in SF and he also does lots of weddings on the side. He also has a bunch of mixes on his website to show how diverse he can be. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
Check out his Yelp reviews. ALL 5 stars. Plus, he doesn't require an up front fee. You pay when the services are rendered.

Roger Clary with AMS Entertainment is awesome. Their prices are super reasonable - they start at about $900.

Sorry, there are no users yet.
Is it me, or is this the most difficult vendor to procure? It seems like all the classy professionals in the area are out fo my price range. I went to the Bridal show at Sunrise Mall last weekend and it was decidedly un-helpful. The less expensive DJs were cheesy and kind of scary (one enthuseastically told me about the many-hour meetings we would have at my house to do all the planning together and came with the added bonus of playing inflatible instruments to entertain bored guests). I just haven't been able to get comfortable trusting anyone I've met so far.
Any reccomendations?
