Photographer & Dj i need them!!

You get what you pay for ?

When I first started out I was charging £200. Never go for a free photographer. There's no motivation to perform.

Try Gumtree for cheap togs starting out...chances are they'll suck so be careful to see their work first...then again at that price you can't be choosey.

Wedding photography is an unbelievable stress that few can deal with. Even very well known pro togs steer well clear of wedding photography (lightweights)?. It has also been the cause of friendship break ups even here on hitched where the photography has not been what the couple expected. It isn't as easy to deliver as some pros make it look.

Do think carefully...although I do also appreciate that budgets are not always easy. Prioritise what will last and not that which lasts just for the day. (ok...thats my opinion...then I am sort of biased)

It can be a bit of sticker shock when you start pricing services for a wedding. But there are alot of not so great people out there who just want your money, and actually don't provide very good service, so buyer beware.

I work with Karl at olympic disco alot, and can vouch for him. He's a solid guy, and very professional. Always set up and ready when he's supposed to be. (shockingly not always the case). Here is a link to his site. http://www.o-dj.co.uk/index.html

I think I am out of your budget as photographer, and don't know of any that I would feel comfortable recommending that might be in your range. The lower your budget, the more careful you need to be as you shop around. Do alot of shopping around. Best of luck! Teri

I can help on the DJ front! I help run two organisations. The wedding DJ Association .... all the guys are top class wedding specialists (all been approved)... but they're not the cheapest. Alternatively, we have some gems in AMPdj and you can pop an enquiry in here https://mobiledjdisco.co.uk/ . Both work in the same way....submit an enquiry and the DJs local to you and available on your date will contact you with their details and fee. This way you can browse through a selection.

If you want more help with choosing a DJ, especially what questions you should be asking....just give me a yell.

For a local DJ in your area try the National Association of Disc Jockey's web site - NADJ - look at the Find A DJ Section.

There will be lots of DJs in your local area. The problem will be finding the ones that meet your expectations!

Do a little bit of research, most DJ's will have a website and they should also have some photos of previous parties, also word of mouth is a very good way to find good and bad services.

Pick a few you like the look of and give them a call. Ask about their wedding experience, what music do they play, do they sound confident and do they know the venue (and have played there)?

Even if their website looks "expensive", its often worth calling them to get an idea of price and also as a benchmark of some of the others work.

You should be able to quickly identify a few serious DJ's from those that are not really geared towards Weddings, where 100% reliability is demanded.

From then on, see if you can meet your favorite.

You'll probably meet the photograher, so see if the DJ is also able to meet up. Its not always possible, but would be a sign that they are serious about getting your business and also have nothing to hide.

Lastly, the "NADJ, SEDA, WDJA" acromns you may see are basically DJ associations.
DJ's that are members agree to a code of conduct, and membership of these associations should be seen as a good sign that the DJ is serious about their profession.

Best of luck, I'm very sure you'll find some good providers quickly.
