Orange County
The number covers the night. Music, MC, planning, sound, load-in, and pack-out. Dance-floor hours are only the part you see.
A quote is the package, plus add-ons, plus travel if you are outside Orange County, plus overtime if the night runs long.
Most people start here
This is planning and production, not a four-hour party. Ceremony, cocktail hour, introductions, and a real timeline cost more because they are more work.

How it works
30% retainer holds the date. Balance is due 14 days before.
Orange County is included. LA, Inland Empire, and San Diego are $125–$300 depending on the drive and the load-in.
Hard load-in (stairs, long push, beach, remote parking): $75–$300 after I see the venue. Early load-in or late strike: $75–$150 per hour. Parking, valet, and venue fees are yours, or I bill them back.
I need one dedicated 20-amp circuit. Bigger systems may need more. Outdoor gigs need a dry, covered, safe spot and real power.
Holiday, NYE, or peak Saturday: 15–25% extra. Booked inside 14 days: 15% extra if I am free.
Card payments add 3–4%. Zelle, ACH, or check is the quoted price. COI or extra insurance paperwork: $75–$175 if the venue makes it a project.
Overtime is $200 per hour, billed in 30-minute steps at $100.
Minimum with my PA: $950. Talent-only, venue PA already proven: $750.
Music requests are welcome in advance. I still run the room.
The retainer stays if you cancel. One date transfer if you ask 30–60 days out and I am free. Price can change with the new date.
I can plug into house gear when it is safe. I do not guarantee someone else's speakers.
Example
Signature wedding. 150 guests. Orange County. Ceremony, cocktail, six-hour reception.
