DJ Stephen Downing 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
Hillsborough, NC
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,950

Hi, I’m Stephen. I’m a professional wedding DJ and musician with a PhD in Music Composition. I help couples create weddings that feel fun, modern, and genuinely them. You won’t get a cookie-cutter playlist or a DJ who just presses play. You get a thoughtfully curated soundtrack that reflects your style, your people, and the energy you want at every moment. From the ceremony to the last song of the night, I focus on making your wedding feel welcoming, inclusive, and unforgettable. The goal is simple. You and your guests have the best time possible.

Honestly, I would love to be friends with Stephen Downing! I loved his vibe from the beginning, and my husband and I are so glad to have booked him for our wedding in November 2025! Stephen was easy to work with from the beginning. We had a quick phone call at the inception of planning to get a rough outline of what we were looking for. Stephen provided a handy shared document for us to brainstorm the ceremony and reception music from the start of the day to the end! I was a very DIY bride, so I’m so thankful that he shared this document with us early so that I could get to work! Not only did Stephen play our favorite tunes on the dance floor, but he also announced for our whole reception and provided the setup for our ceremony. His setup is impressive and made complete by some extremely fun dance floor lighting. Honestly, working with Stephen made my wedding planning a breeze. I didn’t have to think about the actual flow of the night at all. He has weddings down to a science, taking into consideration every part of the day to make sure the vibe is always right! If my husband and I could get married again, we would absolutely pick Stephen Downing! I wish our reception could have lasted forever. I’m still wishing to get back on that dance floor with all of our friends! Thank you, Stephen, for the most magical night!

I’m from New Orleans, originally. We love to throw a party. Having four of your favorites on tap … whether local craft beer, bubbly, hard seltzer, or even cocktails. Well, that’s what we like to call ‘passing a good time’.

We couldn't have asked for a better bar service for our wedding! The mobile tap trailer was a hit from the moment it arrived. Lil Brew Bird was incredibly professional, friendly, and attentive to our guests. They kept everything running smoothly, ensuring the drinks flowed without any hiccups. Not only was the setup visually stunning, but the quality of the drinks was fantastic, and our guests kept raving about the selection. They were quick to serve and made sure everyone was well taken care of all night. Highly recommend this service for anyone looking to add a unique touch and exceptional service to their event

I left the music selection up to him and he did not disappoint, keeping the dance floor packed all night long. Juran was also early to set up and made sure we had everything we needed to have an awesome experience.

Bread and Butter Catering is my culinary love letter to my home of North Carolina. As a Durham native, I bring my deep roots of Southern hospitality with my years of culinary experiences ranging from Michelin level restaurants in San Francisco to fly fishing lodges of Alaska to being the Executive Chef for my home team Durham Bulls. Good food, and good service go hand in hand, and my team and I strive to bring both of those to your event.

Derek was wonderful in my work holiday party! So many compliments of the food, I was so happy! He was timely and cleaned up so well in our new office space. He had items for anyone with a dietary restriction and that was so helpful. He even brought some decorations in our company colors. I received wonderful feedback of not only Derek, but the company in general. He was knowledgeable and it was almost like he could read my mind. I don't have a bad thing to say :)

From the very first conversation, Casie demonstrated an open, helpful, and kind communication style that put us at ease. She took the time to get to know us and understand exactly what we were looking for in terms of capturing our special day. Casie's organizational skills, artistic eye, and clear talent were evident in the stunning photos she delivered. We had provided Casie with a detailed shot list beforehand, and she made sure to get every single photo we requested, even some we hadn't thought of. The only thing I wish we had done was make sure to get like a full length shot of my dress front and back and a great photo with just my siblings - something to keep in mind for future couples working with anyone. Overall, we are thrilled with the quality of Casie's work and highly recommend her to any couple planning their wedding. She captures people in a beautiful way that is always so unique to the couple. We did 8 hours. We recommend 9 because getting ready always takes longer than you think. - happy couple

Hi, I’m Rebecca—the heart and eye behind the lens. I’m a wedding photographer drawn to the quiet, in-between moments—the ones that often go unnoticed but mean everything. The soft glances, the gentle laughter, the way your hands find each other without thinking. Those are the moments that tell your story honestly. With a refined, minimal approach, I focus on creating imagery that feels effortless and timeless. My goal isn’t just to document how your day looked, but to preserve how it felt. The emotions, the connection, the intimacy that makes your love uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Rebecca was an absolute dream from start to finish—starting with our initial meeting, through our engagement shoot, and all the way to our wedding day! She is incredibly friendly, and she has a unique ability to make professional photos feel easy, natural, and fun. When my husband and I began searching for a wedding photographer, we knew we needed someone we felt completely comfortable with on such an important day, and Rebecca was the perfect choice. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We also feel so lucky to have worked with her amazing 'day of' team—Luisa, Chris, and Maggie. They were all not only professional but also incredibly warm and relaxed, making the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. We truly feel blessed to have had Rebecca and her team capture our special day! We look forward to working with Rebecca again in the future.

  • Starts at $1,695
  • Serves Hillsborough, NC

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.

We are so thankful we chose Stylus S.E. and DJ Mez for our wedding! From start to finish, DJ Mez made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. He set the perfect tone during the ceremony, kept the energy high at the reception, and made sure the dance floor was never empty. He was incredibly professional, easy to communicate with, and really listened to what we wanted. Our guests are still raving about the music! If you're looking for a DJ who will truly elevate your wedding day, we can’t recommend DJ Mez and Stylus S.E. enough.

Words can't express how amazing Bre was to work with! Before I found Bre I was overwhelmed with ever aspect of wedding planning - I didn't even know where to start when it came to catering, flowers, signage, timelines, etc. Not only did she help this unorganized bride with planning an entire wedding, but she provided such comfort and ease for the actual wedding day. I didn't have to worry about how anything looked or how the "flow" of events would work because Bre was on top of it all. I am so thankful to have had her help for the months, days, hours and minutes of this entire process. She has been the sweetest person from the minute I inquired with her all the way through our post-wedding conversations!

Jimmy went above and beyond in his role as photographer. Not only were the photos absolutely perfect and returned in a timely manner, he did far more than take photos. He was attentive and made the experience fun. We clicked well with him and he understood our vibe. When something went wrong with our ceremony plan, he was the first to come and check in and help get me back in track to enjoy our special day. He cleared my plate from the reception so our speech photos wouldn’t be impacted, and he did a great job photographing our dogs who were not easy to corral. Thanks Jimmy for being amazing!

We strive to provide pure bliss to each of our clients most memorable events.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so grateful and glad that we found Myesha at Belton Bliss Events for our wedding. From the first moment we met her, we had a gut feeling that she was the right person to help us, and we were so right. Our wedding was pretty big (140 people) with lots of moving parts, and Myesha was integral to it being the best wedding we could have ever asked for. Our guests raved about how smooth and fun everything was, and we stayed ahead of schedule for almost the entire day. When I asked her mid-day if anything catastrophic had happened, she said "I would never tell you if it had" and I trusted her completely to handle anything that came up. And she did! As a testament to how wonderful Myesha is, and how she will go above and beyond for her couples: At the end of the night, we left the venue for our after party... and about an hour later, we realized Myesha had walked over to tell us that we'd left our cake and leftover food behind! We were prepared to send a family member to grab it, but Myesha instead got our hotel key, ran across town and delivered everything to our room so it was there when we got back from our after-party. Even when I woke up at 4 am on the wedding day with an idea for something I wanted to make happen, she said "Don't worry about it" and made it happen. We love Myesha, and you cannot go wrong hiring her!

Marlon and his team are awesome! Start to finish everything was great. He does all the things you expect out of a videographer at baseline (setting up timelines with you, finding good shots beforehand at the venue, making you feel comfortable), and excels at the things you want him to. Always out of the way but somehow managed to get the perfect videos and angles. Pulling you out only at the perfect moments when there are lulls, or when he has an insane golden hour shot to take (the one of my wife and I running through a field is one of the highlights of our wedding video). I would definitely recommend Marlon, even to people who haven't decided on a wedding video, because when you receive it, or you look through his catalog of wedding videos, it captures the day in ways the pictures just couldn't, especially for us. 10/10 Highly Recommend

Matt is my brother and my husband and I chose him to officiate our wedding, not only because he is family, but because we wanted it to feel more personal rather than a generic wedding ceremony speech from the officiant. I always knew my brother was good with words and could speak in front of a crowd, but he truly exceeded our expectations to give us the most memorable ceremony we could have asked for. His speech was the perfect mix of lighthearted jokes, love, personal stories from our relationship, and information and feelings from my husband and I. He truly captured the essence of love and what it means to commit yourself to someone else for the rest of your life. Our guests still cannot stop talking about how great Matt was, even 6 months after the wedding! If you are looking for a wedding officiant to personalize your ceremony, make you and your guests laugh, and make the whole room feel the love between you and your partner, I truly recommend Matt for your special day!!

Music has this incredible ability to bring people together and connect on the dance floor with passion, positivity, & good vibes. I’m so grateful to Kashif for being so dependable and easy to work with. He was great with communication and kept the party energy high from start to finish.

PLEASE INQUIRE VIA MY WEBSITE. Telling your love story through the lens of my camera is my passion. There isn't a right way to feel it. The only way to capture the raw feelings between you and your soulmate is to tailor the process to suit each unique individual. I want to capture your soul essence and the connection you share. If you want to elope and say I do on a mountain, I'll pack my bags! It is YOUR day and I am here to help make it happen.

If you’re looking for a photographer who captures warmth, beauty, and personality, Anna is the one! Her work is some of the best I’ve seen—every shot is filled with heart and character. She’s thoughtful and truly listens to her couples, making sure their vision comes to life. Anna is also very easy to work with and responsive, which makes the planning process seamless. It’s no surprise she’s now on my preferred vendors list. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

I can’t say enough good things about George! We got married Friday, November 11th and he was great. His communication is outstanding. He always made his self available for me. He has an awesome system online that helped me stay organized with songs and timelines stuff! It was just such a great perk to hiring George. 10/10
