Signature Djs

5.0

Toano, VA

DJ
Starts at $1,295

Signature DJs is owned and managed by Brandon Frazier, aka "DJ House". In creating Signature DJs, Brandon recruited a team of professional and experienced DJs and event planners available to meet and exceed all of your needs. During your initial consultation Brandon will match you with the best options based on your preferences and event type. We also offer so many different options to personalize your wedding and make the experience unique for you and your guests. We have lighting, special effects, and even licensed pyrotechnicians on our team that can provide professional fireworks displays to end your night with a BANG!

“We booked the Signed Sealed Delivered package and Brandon and Kellie exceeded expectations from planning to execution. While they came as a package deal, they each deserve their own review for their excellent work. Brandon from Signature DJs provided the best possible wedding DJ service. In planning the event, he was organized and thorough in working with us on the song list and order of events which he would be emceeing. Yet he took much of the burden off our shoulders by applying extensive experience and was flexible during the event in response to guests’ musical needs. The sound system quality was remarkable. He miked our ceremony, in which there were no sound issues, including the officiant, bride, groom, and a quartet in an expansive indoor space. The sound in the reception was also crisp and voluminous without preventing conversation – a difficult achievement. Complementary to the sound, Brandon provided “up lighting,” the maximum units of which we opted for. I recommend this choice because the lighting significantly supported the festive atmosphere to an extent I did not anticipate, though I trusted Brandon’s assertion that they would. Throughout the reception, Brandon monitored and responded to the energy of the dance floor to keep the party going all the way through the end of our time. He also provided a photo booth with an extensive set of props, which was a big hit with our guests, and which was of impressive, current technology. Finally, and this is the most memorable contribution, during the toasts to the bride and groom, Brandon interjected with a musical complement to a speech, which was perfectly humorous and elevating of the moment. Such an action could easily be detrimental, but Brandon’s judgement and awareness created a memory I will forever treasure. Concurrently, day-of coordinator Kellie was organized, knowledgeable, and delivers 100%. Here are some of the reasons why I highly recommend her. First, Kellie was super organized from the start. She set up a personal website for tracking to-do items and sent reminder emails to keep me on track with planning. She also helped me devise a precise wedding day timeline, reviewed my contracts with other vendors to confirm timing, and coordinated with them as a primary point of contact. She attended my final venue walkthrough and ceremony rehearsal to ensure everything was in order. Secondly, Kellie was very knowledgeable and had an answer for every question or issue. She identified issues I hadn’t considered and gave me advice and suggestions. She also had a great eye for detail and made sure everything looked perfect on the day. She texted me pictures of changes she made for my approval. She was always one step ahead of any problem and handled it before I noticed. Finally, Kellie delivered 100% on the day of the wedding. She showed up on time and immediately took over all setup and vendor instruction. She made sure everything ran smoothly and according to the timeline. She took care of the cleanup and packing at the end of the night. She moved my decoration pieces, cards, gifts, and photo guest book (already filled with the photobooth prints) to my hotel room and displayed them beautifully on a table. I was able to enjoy every moment of my wedding day without stress thanks to her. In summary, hiring Signature DJs Brandon and Kellie was the best decision I made for my wedding day. They went above and beyond what I expected. I cannot imagine better service.”

Starts at $2,100
Serves Suffolk, VA

We believe in providing you service that is attentive, accommodating, and above expectations. Attentive: We will communicate promptly from your initial inquiry to your wedding day. We will also pay attention to the details big and small as well as reading the crowd through out the night to play the right songs at the right time. Accommodating: if you want it you got it. We offer an easy-to-use app to help the planning process. We conduct a thorough consultation to ensure that we know exactly what you want and what you don't want on your big day. This also means that every request no matter how specific is taken seriously.

“Summit Events is PHENOMENAL! I cannot say enough wonderful things about them. Since our initial meet and greet to our wedding day (which was about 8 months) Ben was pro-active, communicative, and passionate, and worked with us to create the wedding of our dreams! His company offers practically every service imaginable, and it was a relief to know Summit Events could handle everything from our uplighting and colored lights to our entire sound system, band, DJ, and string quartet. I appreciated all the services offered because like most couples planning a wedding, we wanted as few vendors as possible and upon hearing Summit Events and their wide variety of packages, we immediately knew Ben was the right fit for our 200 black tie wedding! Ben is so knowledgeable and an expert in all things lighting, music, and sound. Ben worked with us for months through various in-person and phone call meetings, even coming to our venue to do a walk-through with us to ensure everything would be perfectly organized and pre-selected/arranged for the wedding day. He assisted us in selecting the various colored uplights and general lights for different portions of our reception. The guests were in awe with all the changing colors and lighting effects, the vibe changed from chill/relaxed dinner hues to flashing/colored lights for the dancing portions, and everything in-between, it was amazing! Now for the music! In the months leading up to the wedding, Ben generously gave us so much time and energy in helping us create different vibes for the different portions of the reception. He understood our vision and ran with it! His app was user-friendly (even for the most un-technologically inclined person such as myself) and allowed us to add songs to different portions of the day, and also detailed notes about introductions, speeches, and anything else we wanted him to know/do. The wedding day was flawless! Ben was an enthusiastic, fun, and wildly upbeat DJ! The sting quartet (for our ceremony and cocktail hour) and band (for the majority of the reception) were phenomenal! We choose an 8-person band with 2 vocalists and primarily string instruments. All the musicians were so talented and all the music was beautiful. Jason (my new favorite person) was the lead singer and an amazing vocalist/musician. He also met with us multiple times, in person and on the phone, to make sure he understood exactly what our vision was and the type of music we wanted played at various portions of the day. He was kind, knowledgeable, and patient (even when we told him about our surprise bridal flash mob dance)! He personally composed various musical arrangements with the instruments/songs we requested, his passion and talent were unsurpassed! Jason and the band were SO much fun! Their stage presence was the best of any band I've seen, they were engaging, high-energy, and sounded incredible. Guests were raving all evening and are still talking about how amazing our band/DJ sounded! Our guests danced all night and you couldn't pull anyone away from the dance floor! Our wedding day was perfect, we heard multiple comments from guests saying it was the best wedding they've ever been to. All thanks to Ben, Jason, and everyone at Summit Events! We couldn't be happier! They created our dream wedding and I cannot recommend them more!”

“Kelton was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He stuck with us even when we had to postpone our wedding for two years due to the pandemic, so we really appreciated his commitment to working with us. Kelton has a great system for figuring out your taste, priorities, and run of show. He set up very quickly at our venue, which was key given we were running on a tight schedule, and he managed to produce nice sound in a very cavernous space (no idea how!). He kept us running on time and made all transitions seamless. His music perfectly matched the vibe we wanted, starting with a relaxed cocktail hour and dinner, and gradually increasing the tempo into a full-scale dance party as the night went on. And our friends and family had an absolute blast! He had everyone from 20 somethings to family in their 60s and 70s dancing until the very end! We got so many positive messages the next day, including one person who described our DJ as being "on fleek."”

Charlotte, NC

DJ
Serves Suffolk, VA

Welcome! My name is Obehi (obey). I'm a Nigerian-born American. God has blessed me with many opportunities to be a full-time DJ. I take very seriously the nearly 200 weddings I've had the privilege of being a part of. I hope this curated page can show you and your family that I will give 110% of my talent and personality to aid in making your night one to remember.

“Finding the right DJ was one of the most important things for my fiancé and I when we were planning our wedding. We stumbled across a video on social media of Obehi at a wedding absolutely rocking out with his clients and their guests and we were immediately sold. From the very first phone call, we knew we had made the right choice. Obehi was open, honest, and deeply cared about making sure he was providing us with an exceptional DJ experience at our wedding! He answered questions when we needed him and he truly took the time to get to know us as a couple to ensure that the music he was playing matched us and our vibe. Our wedding was nothing short of perfect and Obehi played a huge role in the that! He played every song that was requested by us as a couple, our guests, and beyond. He interacted with us personally, with our guests, and even made sure to join us on the dance floor! Obehi is more than just a DJ...he's an MC, some comic relief in a stressful moment, and now a forever friend! If you are looking for a DJ for your special day, I cannot recommend Obehi enough!”
