How much does a wedding DJ cost in Lima, Peru?
The price of a wedding DJ in Lima depends on five things: your guest count, the venue and whether ceremony, cocktail hour and reception are in separate spaces, the lighting, the power generator (if Paul arranges it) and the destination. That is why DJ Paul has no price list: he builds an exact quote around your actual wedding, with no ranges and no surprises.
What is fixed is what comes included: Paul mixes your wedding from start to finish with his own sound and lighting, and editing your dance songs costs nothing extra. He takes only 24 weddings a year.
What sets the price of your wedding
[06]- 01
Guest count
It scales the sound and the logistics of the whole night.
- 02
The venue and its spaces
If the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception are in separate spaces, as is common in Lima, each one needs its own sound system.
- 03
Lighting
Moving heads for the dance floor and architectural uplighting for the rest of the venue.
- 04
Power generator
Runs from the first minute, not as a backup. Usually the caterer provides it; if not, Paul arranges it. Optional second generator, because one machine can fail and two will not fail at once.
- 05
Destination
Within the full-rig range (up to Huacho, Chincha and Chosica) or farther away, where Paul travels with his technician and sound is coordinated with a local provider.
- 06
Editing your dance songs
First dance, surprise dance and hora loca. Included, no extra cost.
What is included
- DJ
- Paul mixes your wedding from start to finish. Editing the songs for your dances (first dance, surprise dance, hora loca) is included at no extra cost. No MC announcing every moment: the microphone is only for the speeches you plan. The music leads, not the voice.
- Sound
- D.A.S. and RCF systems with an Allen & Heath mixer. Independent systems for ceremony, cocktail hour and reception when they are in separate spaces, as they usually are at Lima venues. Wireless microphones for the ceremony and speeches.
- Lighting
- Moving-head beams for the dance floor, with colors, gobos and effects, plus wireless architectural uplighting that transforms the venue without touching the decor.
- Power generator
- Public power in Peru does not give a professional sound system the stability it needs, which is why sound "drops" at many weddings when the lights come on. The generator runs from the first minute, not as a backup. Usually the caterer provides it; if not, Paul arranges one with a trusted supplier. A second backup generator is optional.
