Karl went above and beyond for us every step of the way! I wanted a faux boxwood wall for our photobooth and he made one for us. I was also able to use my own designs for the photobooth so that it matched the rest of our wedding. Last minute we found out some close family couldn't come and Karl recorded and edited a video of our ceremony and had it to us incredibly quickly. We really put off our music selections but DJ Ben was able to work with us just a few days before the wedding and everything came out perfectly.

Victor + his team TRULY made our entire day perfect from start to finish. We actually met him at two prior weddings we attended and loved his energy and pure happiness so much he was one of the first vendors we hired. He is extremely communicative, helpful, detail oriented, and creative! From start to finish our ceremony, cocktail hour, reception music + photo booth was seamless. I cannot tell you how many people complimented their services, Victor’s energy, and the amount of fun he brought. Multiple people asked for the “playlist” I gave him, well I simply told him a few artists and songs and he performed his magic from there. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you! - The Dinsmores

Working with DJ Trey was effortless. He was so quick about communication, very detail oriented, and overall cared about giving you the best party ever! He designed the coolest monogram to be projected on our dance floor and he was very patient with me as I struggled to decide on a design! He had so many good designs to choose from! I also didn’t know that he would cover his dj equipment with a white wooden panel. Most djs I’ve seen at other weddings have their equipment exposed and I always thought this was completely normal, but Trey made his setup look so elegant this way! I would highly recommend working with him for any event!

DJ Touche absolutely rocked the house at our wedding in Summersville, WV. Not only did he provide some awesome moments that everyone at the wedding will remember, he played exactly the type of music we wanted played the whole night. He put his twists on things and made it better than we could’ve imagined. A lot of guests at our wedding have personally reached out and told us how awesome the DJ was and how he created the best possible environment for a wedding. Not only does DJ Touche have the stamp of approval, I really hope someone I know has him at their wedding because WOW! I couldn’t have imagined our day without him.

We could not have found more talented and delightful DJs than Paige and Holly. They were so easy and fun to work with (hands down our favorite vendors) and they gave us such a joyful, perfect soundscape for our wedding. When we weren't sure what kind of music we wanted to play, Paige and Holly were both ready with suggestions and asked the perfect questions to get a feel for our music style. The questionnaire they shared with us was so helpful to me in getting an idea for how plan music at weddings and what decisions you want to think about along the way. Their warmth and energy were so comforting and uplifting to me as we planned everything (I'm a very anxious person and this made a HUGE difference to me 3). Holly and Paige both made us feel confident and supported in leaning in to our music preferences for all stages of the ceremony and reception, and they made everything so easy for us. We had so many friends and family tell us how much they loved the music and how well the songs blended together and flowed. I could not be happier that we had the privilege of working with these lovely humans and I cannot recommend them highly enough!

Luxury Harpist - Tori Parrish

Asheville, NC
  • Solo performer
  • Serves Hickory, NC

I am a classical harpist with over twenty years of experience, and I love working with couples to add a magical touch to their special day. I have a full repertoire of classical and romantic music, and I arrange my own medleys and popular music as well! I have performed in weddings in North Carolina, California and Tennessee and with the Stanford Symphony Orchestra and the American Youth Harp Ensemble. Some of my favorite performances were touring renowned concert halls in Austria including St. Peter's Cathedral and Melk Abbey. Now, I'm based in Asheville, NC and work with students of all ages sharing the joys of the harp.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tori’s presence at our wedding celebration made our day incredibly special and relaxing! Having Tori playing the harp during the prelude and ceremony was a treat - we could hear the harp music as we finished getting ready! Even our guests on zoom heard the music and couldn't stop talking about how beautiful it was. The whole process of working with Tori was streamlined, professional and effortless! They communicated promptly and provided comprehensive details well in advance of the day to ensure everything was coordinated. Tori also made the process of choosing music so easy. Other than our song for walking down the aisle, we didn’t have strong preferences. Tori got to know our personalities and preferences and made music choices for us that fit the mood of our gathering and ceremony perfectly! We heard some samples of the music during our planning session and were already touched and tearing up. Working with Tori was truly one of the least stressful parts of planning the wedding and we never had to worry about music in the ceremony. We also cried when they sent us the special recording of their arrangement of Ben Platt’s “So Will I” that we loved for walking down the aisle. It was so special to have personalized and unique music arranged for our day, and a commemorative recording we can listen to forever. We cannot recommend Tori highly enough! Thank you so much Tori!!

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!

Diana and Robby, Owners of A Bride’s DJ, feel especially qualified because they both like to celebrate more than the average human. Robby is willing to wear a costume for any reason. Having a themed event? He has dressed up & made announcements like a pirate. Arrr! We have a small team of DJs who have each performed at 100 to 1500 weddings. Our DJs extensive experience & training ensures a smooth planning experience for clients, excelling in communication, are ego-free (so you get what YOU want), detail-oriented, and most importantly…they actually mix the music.

I got married in August 2023, and I was hesitant to hire a DJ because my fiancé and I had such specific music requests. Basically, we knew the exact songs we wanted played at our wedding, but we really wanted someone to help mix the songs, help MC the night, and just generally keep the vibe going all night. And wow was A Bride’s DJ absolutely perfect! I first spoke to Diana, and she was incredibly helpful, responsive, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. She made us feel so comfortable and easily answered all of our questions. And Robby was absolutely fantastic too! He never made us feel like our niche request was a bad idea. In fact, he made us feel like we were in perfectly capable hands, and he was right! Robby mixed our music perfectly and did such a wonderful job keeping the energy high during our whole wedding. He even came up to me at the end of the night and asked if there were any other songs I wanted played, which was such a thoughtful gesture and goes to show how great A Bride’s DJ is to work with. If you are looking for a top-notch DJ in the Asheville, NC area, I truly can’t recommend Diana, Robby, and A Bride’s DJ enough!

Your event deserves the best music professional! I know planning an event and choosing a DJ can be a lot; let me make the music the easiest part for you. I’ve been making memorable experiences since 2007; where I shine is matching the music to your vibe while also reading the room, using real DJ transitions to keep the dance floor energy up, working with vendors to keep the event running smoothly, interacting with the crowd, and customizing what I do for each client to create an authentic celebration that brings you and your guests together. Whether it's a wedding, corporate event, or private party; I've got you covered.

If you are looking for the best DJ for your wedding please do not look any further. We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Marty. But we are going to list them anyway! First off, Marty was such a joy to work with and we do not say that lightly. Even before he even played a song at our wedding, the process of working with Marty was truly unmatched. He was the most accommodating and listened to our every request (of which there were many lol). Every call we had with him, we would hang up and just feel filled with joy (We know that sounds corny but it is truly what my wife and I felt like). He truly went above and beyond to make our entertainment at our wedding come alive. At the wedding - he was UNREAL!!! I would consider myself fairly "picky" when it comes to entertainment and he blew my expectations out of the water. He brought an amazing set up with lights for him and also uplighting that is a must. Finally, I think the thing we appreciated most about Marty was that he was so genuine. The wedding business is filled with people who are looking out for themselves first and Marty could not be more opposite of that. He truly cared about us and could not have been more thoughtful. We will never forget it! We cannot say enough great things about Marty. He truly is gifted and is a NO brainer for not only a wedding but any event!

Raleigh, NC
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,995
  • Serves Hickory, NC for additional fees

I started Discoboxx in 2022 to bring a more stylish and tasteful approach to weddings and events in North Carolina. For ten years, I was fortunate to help grow two of the biggest and most successful DJ collectives in Los Angeles, DJing hundreds of weddings and playing at the most stunning event venues and nightlife spots. When my family decided to move to Raleigh, I knew I would have the opportunity to create a new experience for clients in The Tar Heel State looking for something different. A wedding DJ company for couples not looking for a “wedding DJ.”

As a wedding planner, I work with a lot of wedding DJs - and by far, Discoboxx has been the best experience for both my couples and myself. They truly take the time to get to know couples, provide a customized planning portal and conduct final meetings to confirm details, and are fantastic with communication and response time. On the day-of, they excel at everything from announcements and guiding the flow of guests all the way through dance floor transitions and mixing records. Intuitive, talented, and client experience-focused; you won't find a better DJ collective than Discoboxx.

Tasteful Tea worked with us to add specific instruments that we wanted for our favorite music genres and had a great song list to look at for reference. They knew how to read a room and keep the party going (without cheesy get-on-the-dancefloor songs). So kind and really made our reception the blast that it was!

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

Cuarteto Guataca is AMAZING. Every single member of this group is an absolute joy to work with, and their talent is beyond words! Cuarteto was our wedding band, and I don’t think anyone sat down the entire reception! Hire them now!!
