DJ Stephen Downing 
Rating: 5.0 (11 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.

DJ Stephen did our wedding in September 2025 and we couldn't recommend him enough! When looking for a wedding DJ we wanted someone who was queer friendly and had great taste in music and Stephen exceeded all expectations. Stephen was so friendly, professional, super easy to work with and really listened to our music vision and vibe that we wanted to create. He arrived early to set up the sound system for the ceremony and all of his equipment (mics, speakers, lights) worked great throughout the night. The music selection was fantastic and kept everyone dancing all night long. We appreciated that he didn't rely on the same overplayed wedding songs but mixed it up in line with our tastes. We absolutely would recommend DJ Stephen to all of our friends!

  • Starts at $2,000

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 our very first meeting with RocThaSpot Events, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication throughout the planning process was proactive, detail-oriented and incredibly effective. On the day of our wedding, they exceeded all of our expectations - it was a true one-stop shop with them running the photo booth, special effects like cold sparklers and clouds on the dance floor. Not only did they keep our guests engaged and the party going all night, but we felt like family from start to finish. The quality of their work and professionalism was nothing short of excellence. All of our guests are still raving about the incredible experience RocThaSpot Events provided on our special day.

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
We couldn't be happier with Marty at our recent wedding! From start to finish, he exceeded our expectations in every way. First and foremost, his attention to detail is amazing -- he noticed a discrepancy between the couple introduction song that we had put in the Vibo app versus what our day of coordinator had on her wedding timeline. He then reached out to the day of coordinator to figure out which song was correct. He also took the time to understand what we were looking for for our cocktail hour and wedding reception. He reached out many times prior to our wedding to check in with us and make sure that all of our questions were answered. It was clear that he genuinely cares about providing a memorable experience. Marty is also flexible. Originally the plan was for our dance floor to be outside. However, due to a heat wave we ended up deciding to move the dance floor inside. Marty was able to easily accommodate this request and he also offered to put speakers outside so guests who were out on the deck would still be able to hear the music. We also recommend going with the up-lighting. He did a great job setting up the lights. The lights actually change colors and really change the vibe of the reception room once the party gets started! The live music he delivered during cocktail hour was a standout of the night. We had so many compliments from guests about his cocktail hour performance. Another aspect that truly set Marty apart was his willingness to go above and beyond. Not only did he do a great job reading the vibe of the room in order to keep the dance floor lively, but at one point he also helped with cleaning up dinner plates. He showed a level of dedication and professionalism that's rare to find. Marty played a crucial role in making our wedding a success. We highly recommend him for any occasion!

She believes exceptional design should feel intentional, personal, and layered, and that flawless execution is what allows a couple to be fully present.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring a wedding planner is one of the first decisions we made during the wedding planning process. We needed a planner that knows how to stand on business and deal with logistics for a ginormous crowd (300), but also be someone that can vibe with us because they'll be dealing with all our shenanigans during the planning process on the day of the wedding. We went through a handful of wedding planner consultations before we met with Carina and after meeting her - it was definitely wedding-planner-love at first sight! And it was the best decision we made! During the year long planning process, Carina was able to lay out the whole process so we never felt rushed. She also designed our whole wedding beautifully, because neither I nor my now husband have a single artistic bone in our body. Aside from her impeccable planning skills, she is just a delightful person to be around who sincerely just loves what she does and bringing her couples vision to life (while staying reasonably under budget). She took what is usually a stressful process and made it as fun as you can make wedding planning. My now husband and I didn't think there was any way we could have our 300 Vietnamese wedding without any major bumps (just due to the sheer number of people), but thanks to Carina and her wedding magic, we had the most beautiful perfect day! We couldn't have had our perfect day without her!

I could not have asked for a better photographer than Casie!! We met her for our engagement shoot and she made us feel right at home, despite neither of us loving getting our picture taken. It gave me a lot of calm on our wedding day knowing we were in good hands! Casie was always early and super professional, responded to emails immediately, and set up meetings so we could discuss expectations and what we wanted. We got a sneak peek with lots of photos just a few days after the wedding, and we just got the rest of the photos and are so thrilled with them!! She got everything on our shot list, gave just the right amount of direction to look nice without feeling forced, and really captured the day beautifully--including moments that I myself didn't even realize were happening! She worked well with our videographer, and her second shooter was also amazing.I would highly recommend Casie!

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.

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.

As a venue owner Stylus S.E. Is always an absolute pleasure to work with. Their communication is prompt and thorough, ensuring we feel prepared and confident leading up to the big day. On the day of, their professionalism and ability to keep the dance floor packed and guests entertained is unmatched. Once, when an unexpected power outage struck, Stylus came through with a battery backup for their equipment and some battery-operated lights, literally saving the reception. We would highly recommend Stylus S.E. to any couple looking for a top-notch wedding band and DJ service.

Working with Bre was easily one of the best vendor choices we made while wedding planning. Our wedding ceremony became a kind of “pop-up” style event and Bre rolled with every decision and last minute detail we threw at her. With her day-of coordination package, we were able to have 2 pre wedding meetings and a rehearsal the day before. I went into the rehearsal feeling nervous about how things would go and left feeling so reassured and excited! The day of the wedding Bre checked in with me and made sure things were running smoothly. I felt so calm and confident walking up to the venue knowing Bre was in charge and bringing our vision to life! The whole day went beautifully and I know it’s because Bre was working her magic behind the scenes. She stayed until the last moment of clean up and made sure all our personal items and gifts made it home with us. Beyond just receiving a great service, it was so special to work with someone who truly celebrated with us and took care of us like we were old friends. I would 100% recommend working with Magical Moments and wish we could get married again to continue working with them!

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

Our wedding at The Upchurch was truly everything we dreamed of and more. From the moment we arrived that morning to get ready, the day felt calm, joyful, and so thoughtfully planned. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. The historic home is full of charm and natural light, the Magnolia Lawn is breathtaking, and the Conservatory is bright, romantic, and timeless. Every part of the day flowed so naturally from the ceremony to cocktail hour and into the reception. It genuinely felt like a fairytale from beginning to end. Booking The Upchurch’s in-house wedding planning service was one of the best decisions I made. Melanie was incredible throughout the entire planning process. She was organized, reassuring, and truly cared about bringing our vision to life. On the wedding day, I worked closely with Heidi, Tara, and Melanie, and they were absolutely amazing. They handled every detail seamlessly, coordinated everything behind the scenes, and made sure the day ran perfectly. Because of them, I never once felt stressed and was able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful The Upchurch is and how perfect the entire day felt. The combination of a breathtaking venue and a team that genuinely cares about their couples is something truly special. Choosing The Upchurch was one of the best decisions we made, and we will always be grateful for the role they played in making our wedding day unforgettable.

I am DJ Joey B, owner of Joey’s DJ Service based in Durham, NC. I have been DJing professionally since 2005, with weddings as a major focus of my work. On your wedding day, I serve as both DJ and Master of Ceremonies, guiding the timeline, managing transitions, and keeping guests engaged from ceremony through the final song. I provide professional sound, wireless microphones, and clean lighting to support the full experience. Planning is clear and streamlined with an online portal for music selections, Do Not Play songs, and key details.

Joey’s DJ Service was an excellent choice for our Durham, NC wedding! Joey was so kind and friendly from the jump, and we liked and trusted him starting from our consultation call at the beginning of planning our event. Even at that early stage, Joey was already advocating for us to have the wedding we wanted, sharing tips on how to structure the day so we were able to set aside time for private moments of introvert connection during a very social, family-focused event. We ended up booking him to provide music for our entire wedding day, from pre-ceremony music (played while guests were arriving and taking their seats) through the ceremony (including microphones for the officiant and groom) through cocktail hour, dinner, special dances and toasts, and the dance party portion of the reception. Joey’s attention to detail, including making sure he knew which specific versions of the songs we requested we wanted to play, and which music lined up with specific points in the schedule of events, was unmatched. Joey’s client portal made it easy to share our music choices for all these different parts of our big day. He paid close attention to our playlists/requests for the dance party while also mixing in some of his own selections, reading the room and ensuring everyone had something to dance to; this was especially impressive given that our guests ranged in age from infants to octogenarians! He was also sensitive to the nuances of a big family gathering: My dad and I don’t have a close relationship, so my mom and I did a mother-daughter dance in place of the traditional father-daughter one. When my dad put in a song request later in the evening, telling Joey he intended to ask me to dance with him to that song, Joey pulled me aside to make sure it was okay first before honoring the request. My new husband and I loved working with Joey’s DJ Service for our wedding, and we would wholeheartedly recommend this seasoned professional to anyone planning a special event.
