In Raleigh, Just like in Durham, Chapel Hill, and throughout North Carolina, once the guests arrive …the wedding DJ is the most consquential wedding vendor that you'll hire. The average wedding puts 75%-80% of their event in their DJ's hands. That's why, when it’s time to celebrate and have fun, you can relax and enjoy your event with Stylus! Entertainment is the single most important part of how your wedding will be remembered. If your wedding DJ isn’t getting everyone of all ages involved, from your friends to your parents and grandparents, then they’re probably not playing the right mix for you.

“Jason and the Stylus team are amazing to work with. They are proactive to make sure they have everything they need for your event which is so helpful and very responsive if you contact them for something. Our DJ was Spencer for my daughter’s bat mitzvah party and he was amazing. The assistant DJ with the photo booth was amazing as well and just as engaged. We’re still being told what an awesome party we had thanks to Stylus!”

Only 6 weeks out, and he was free on our date *and* had played the venue before! Fast-tracked our consult meetings, worked with us on our timeline for our very short ceremony and reception and overall had great tips and tricks. There were one or two moments during the wedding that were maybe hiccups (including me kicking the plugs out!) but he rolled with it, we rolled with it.
