Most DJs quote per event rather than per hour, with evening bookings in Ohio running from about $95 to $1,350+ and typical spends around $410. Hourly figures usually only appear for short add-on slots or extra time at the end of the night. When comparing quotes, check what is included: sound equipment, lighting, setup time and travel are normally built in, while uplighting, an extended set or a separate system for a second room adds to the fee. December dates and peak-season weekends are the first to go, so confirm your date as soon as the venue is settled. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Gary Perl's ROCK-ON DJ
"My husband and I were at a wedding July 18, 2025 and the DJ Gary Perl's Rock-ON DJ Service and I would NEVER recommend them. They interrupted the officiant, they did follow the schedule that was presented to them. The bridesmaid music for them to walk in was interrupted and the DJ did not announce the process. The bride and father walking in was disrupted as well. When it was time for the toast the DJ's announced everyone go to the bar so we can do a toast which set things back about 30 minutes. The DJ did not follow any of the schedule, they did the anniversary dance and stopped the music at 10 year anniversary without saying anything. The bride and groom dance and the bride with her father dance were stopped before the music was done. The DJ's were very unprofessional in their appearance and persona. Both looked very unkempt, this was a formal black tie wedding. The DJ's were dressed in jeans t shirts and baseball hats. What DJ does not dress appropriately for a black tie affair. The DJ set the scene as if they were doing a casual picnic outside. It was very disappointing for the bride and groom and their families. The mother of the bride did talk to the DJ but he disregarded anything she had to say. Several times they were asked to turn the music down during dinner and they would not. The DJ's treated this event like it was a joke. The brides sister/maid of honor even presented cd's with music to be played for dancing, the DJ refused to play any requests telling the guests no one would dance to that. The DJ's are being paid to create a wonderful experience at the reception and these two did just the opposite. They are not paid to disrespect guests and the families as they did very publicly. Regardless of how long they have been in business or the fact he was a Cleveland DJ back in the 1970's which he kept talking about throughout the reception. They were just the worst DJ's I have ever seen for wedding reception.

Table Manners Productions Events DJ
"Scottie did an awesome job. He came early to setup, was all ready to go well ahead of any quests arriving which set the precedence for how the rest was gonna go. Very professional and laid back and read the audience when it was time to move onto the next thing for the evening. When it came to dancing he played a ton of great hits and mixed songs back to back for a nonstop party. Was always attentive to our needs, came and checked in with us regularly, let the photographers know when he was about to start first dances and toasts, and made sure the spotlight was on us. Highly recommend him and we want him back for a barn party in the future!"
Groovy Savage
"Groovy Savage is the owner of a small family business that works by contract with professional dj equipment. Groovy, like his father, is an ordained minister. He is a charismatic, hard working, dedicated professional that gives 100 % every time. He puts on a great show, takes all requests because he has a wealth of music from several decades, and makes every event fun."
BackForward / Adam Cartwright
"Talented across the board!
We were blown away by Adam’s professionalism, attention to detail, musical talent and fun factor at our recent party! The cherry on top was his ability to take great quality professional photos! Adam was a great MC who took my DJ playlist inspiration and ran with it to create the perfect playlist for our party. And we can’t forget the Taylor Swift meets Coachella rendition of Happy Birthday which flowed into Jack & Diane. Such a fantastic addition to the event!"
