Awarded Best of Zola
“I honestly don't even know where to begin. Carina is hands-down one of the most thoughtful, kind, hard-working, enjoyable, and creative people I have ever met. She handled every single thing with poise and grace. Every wedding plan changes, or has hiccups but frankly I never had to feel those because Carina just handled it with such calm and supportive energy that I didn't even have time to worry about anything at all. I think one of the most unique things about Carina is how she puts her EVERYTHING into making your vision come true. She sat down and HAND-WROTE every single name card (200!!!) because I liked an idea she had. She showed up to my rehearsal dinner with a bouquet for me that she stopped and made herself just so I could have something for that night. Day of was no different, honestly it was almost sad because I knew I wouldn't get to have my fun meetings with her anymore (luckily we are now good friends so I get to do that either way!!) I recommend Carina for your wedding if you want someone to create a vision, to be kind and thoughtful, to listen and show up to every appointment and to put her entire heart into making sure your vision comes to fruition.”

Hey there! I’m an outgoing & fun boutique wedding DJ that works with a limited number of couples to fully customize the vibe of the wedding day to your style & personality, and help guests have more fun than they planned on, until the very last song! As a DJ, host, & party producer I guide you through the wedding music to make the entire process easy, delivering an engaging wedding experience through crowd interaction (no awkward moments ever), full music curation, and immersive sound & full-room lighting design. Plus, your guests might just think you hired Pitbull ;)

Awarded Best of Zola
“Let me begin by saying that I, myself, am a special event DJ. When it came to booking a DJ for our wedding, there was no doubt that Marty was who we wanted to rock the party. Not only is he enthusiastic about weddings, he also brings a wealth of performance experience, having been a musician and DJ for decades. Marty came extremely prepared, even asking for a photo of each person giving a toast, so that he could brief each of them before their speech. He also runs his entire system through a battery backup, meaning that, even if the venue's power completely goes out, he can keep the party going. In terms of mixing, Marty is extremely polished and creative, keeping the energy high, and transitions seamless. We highly recommend DJ Marty Nightengale. You won’t regret booking him!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“We hired Bunn DJ Company Virginia to DJ our 150-guest wedding. Frank was our DJ, and he did a wonderful job all day helping us to curate several different vibes for different parts of the evening. The online tools from Bunn DJ made curating and sharing a playlist of our favorite songs as well as what songs to use where (first dance, wedding party introductions, last dance, etc) a breeze as well as very user friendly. Frank was a great MC, and got 150 guests wrangled to several different rooms throughout the night between cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing (all in different parts of our venue)! He did a great job balancing songs for different age groups as well as when to let songs play out longer or mix into the next song more quickly if the crowd was not into it. He is a big reason our dance floor was packed all night long! We were very happy with Bunn DJ Company Virginia’s services and specifically Frank’s skill as a DJ. Also, if it is within your budget, get the club cannons. Firing those off on our dancefloor was pure electricity for the energy on the dancefloor!”

  • Florist

  • Serves Fuquay-Varina, NC

Every wedding tells a story, and I believe the flowers should feel just as personal. As a NC native and Pittsboro farmer-florist, I grow many of the flowers I design with, pairing the best of each season with your style, color palette, values and the details that matter most to you. Whether it's a favorite color, a cherished family memory or simply the feeling you want your guests to remember, I love translating those ideas into flowers that feel aligned with you. You don't need to know flower names or what's in bloom. That's where I come in. I guide you through the process, creating flowers that are beautiful, seasonal and very you.

“cannot recommend Buck Naked Farm enough for your wedding flowers! From the very first consultation, they made the entire process so easy and personal. I wanted flowers that felt fresh, natural, and unique—nothing cookie-cutter—and they delivered beyond my expectations. The bouquets and centerpieces were stunning, filled with seasonal blooms grown on their farm in Pittsboro. You could *feel* the care and love that went into every arrangement. The colors and overall design perfectly matched the relaxed, romantic vibe of our wedding. My guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the flowers were! What I loved most was knowing that everything was locally and sustainably grown—something that was really important to us. They even accommodated my vision while suggesting blooms like dahlias that I hadn’t thought of, making the arrangements even more magical. If you’re looking for wedding flowers that are truly one-of-a-kind and beautifully designed, they are the way to go. They’re perfect for couples who want gorgeous local florals with a personal touch. 10/10!”

She went above and beyond her stated duties and we felt so fortunate. She held our hands when we needed it, but also gave us the flexibility and room to make our own creative decisions.

From the very beginning of the planning process, he really took the time to listen to what we wanted and understand the vibe we were going for. He was also incredibly helpful in guiding us through the areas we weren’t quite sure about, which made the planning process so much easier. The music was amazing, and our guests were on the dance floor all night long! He did such a great job reading the room and keeping the energy going without ever feeling forced. We truly feel like he played a huge part in making our reception such a fun and memorable night. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and would absolutely recommend him to anyone planning their wedding!”

Theresa is the consummate professional. From the moment she begins, you feel as though you are on the set of your own movie. She works her magic with incredible artistry, innovation, and creativity, and she has a true gift for making you look and feel your absolute best.

My makeup photographed beautifully, lasted flawlessly throughout each event, and I never once had to worry about it.

Your wedding day moves fast — the nervous excitement before the ceremony, the hug from someone you haven't seen in years, the look between you two when no one else is watching. I'm here to catch all of it, so years from now you can look back and feel it again, not just see it. I blend documentary storytelling with an editorial eye — refined, intentional images that still feel real. Nothing overly posed, nothing you'll look back on and wince at. My background in art direction and a lifetime spent moving between countries shaped how I see a scene: I notice light, composition, and the small human moments most people miss.

“From the first phone call, I knew we'd made the right choice. Raiana captured moments we didn't even know were happening, my father's face during the vows, my niece sneaking a bite of cake. Every photo feels like a little piece of our hearts. Worth every penny, and then some.”
