There's no denying that weddings are expensive! According to the "Cost of Wedding" website, couples in San Antonio typically spend between $14,309 and $23,848 with an overall average of $19,078 per wedding. A single guest could add $136-$167 to your overall cost! With those kinds of numbers, we make it a priority to give our customers the very best advice on how to save money when booking your wedding vendors. Here are some tips we'd like to give you to get the very best deals on booking your wedding DJ in San Antonio!
Tip #1
Book your wedding vendor at Bridal Shows or Open Houses
We typically offer our very best deals at Bridal shows and Open houses. Each wedding vendor has their own deal or special at these events, but from our experience, there's no better time to book your favorite vendor. For example, we attend the Bridal Extravaganza in San Antonio, 2-3 times a year. For this particular event, we typically spend 3-4 days preparing and pay for a booth to showcase our company. It's no wonder why we offer the very best deals at these shows! But be sure to get there early, as our dates typically book up fast. It's not only a great time for couples to get to know our staff and see them in action, but they can typically save 10-20% on their overall cost by booking during these events.
An Open house is another great time to book your favorite wedding vendors. These are held throughout the year by wedding venues looking to showcase "mock weddings" and give venue tours to potential couples. Usually, open house events are only available for preferred wedding vendors to attend. This means that you not only get a great deal but you can also trust that the vendor is referred and trusted by the wedding venue to do a great job!
Tip #2
All-Inclusive Package
Here at Look Entertainment, we have something called our "All Inclusive Package" which contains everything we offer at a low discounted price. This package is for the bride and groom who want it all! It contains 7 hours of DJ which includes ample time for your ceremony music all the way to your final dance! Your wedding DJ will bring 20 premium wireless uplights that will transform your reception hall into a beautiful backdrop for photographs and will set the mood for a fun atmosphere. A custom designed wedding monogram with your names and date will be projected onto a wall or your dance floor by our professional gobo light. We will set up "Dancing on a Cloud" for your first dance. This is our signature look for couples wanting dramatic and beautiful first dance photos, and that wow factor! You also get to enjoy 4 hours of our open-air photo booth, in addition to an upgraded backdrop and photo album you can take home as a keepsake at the end of the night! This deal is by far the best way to save some money and get everything you need to make your dream wedding come true!

Tip #3
Sunday and Weekday Weddings
Another little known fact throughout the wedding industry is that Sunday or even some weekday weddings are typically discounted. This can total to substantial savings from everything including your wedding venue all the way down to your photographer and it's not different for Look Entertainment when it comes to our DJ, Uplighting, and Photobooth services! Although we do not have a specific set amount that we discount for Sunday or weekday weddings, we often have more flexibility on our pricing for the remaining days. This is because of the fact that most people get married on Saturdays and Fridays, therefore we have more flexibility for the remaining days.
With all these tips on how to save money planning your big day, we hope that every bride and groom get the very best deal they deserve!
