Check out our mixes on our website!

Awarded Best of Zola
As the Event Planner for a recent wedding, I had the complete joy and honor of working with Mo for several months. His attention to detail and everything regarding the music, sound and lighting was top tier!! He was very professional and well organized. He showed up on time and had plenty of time to get all of his equipment in place for the ceremony and reception. At one point during the planning process, he went above and beyond to meet with the Fire Marshall regarding the cold sparks because the Fire Marshall had questions about the venue. Mo became familiar with the couple and learned about them and their style of music that they loved and what their guest would enjoy. Once the party started, he kept the dance floor packed and read the room well. The Photo Booth was very modern, sleek and well ran by the attendant. It was aesthetically pleasing to the eye as to not take away from the other decor in the room. If you are trying to decide between Mo/Wanjama productions and another DJ, choose Mo!! You will not be disappointed and he will make the planning process and your life much easier!!

Raleigh, NC
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $2,000

Sarah started playing harp for weddings in 2009 at the age of 14. She has loved playing at weddings, anniversary parties, rehearsal dinners, and elopements ever since. She effortlessly brings ambiance of every event she attends, creating a magical atmosphere with her music. Whether your dream wedding is an intimate gathering or a grand affair, Sarah will help bring your vision to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am writing this review about Sarah. First of all, she was so great at being responsive which right off the bat was a big deal for me. Planning a wedding is stressful but during our first initial meet through Zoom I was immediately put at ease. Second, booking her was extremely easy and fairly priced. Thirdly, she was on time and I balled my eyes out walking down the aisle to beauty and the beast. I've never heard the harp in person and it was an experience I will never forget. She made my event elegant and elevated in all the right ways. If I ever have an excuse to bring Sarah back to another event, I WILL and will recommend her to anyone looking for calm, beautiful music for any event. Thank you thank you thank you Sarah!

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,295

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.”

We hired Ralph Bracamonte for our super non-traditional wedding, he absolutely CRUSHED it. Great communication, flexibility, and insight into helping us plan - and outstanding delivery on the day-of. Great MC (without being too much) and did an awesome job of reading the room and keeping the dance floor poppin. He's seriously talented far beyond just slapping on a playlist - let this man cook!

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,695
  • Serves Raleigh, 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.

Joseph introduced himself to us BEFORE asking for any deposits or contract signatures. He listened to what we were looking for and worked with us to get the best playlist for the age range of our guests. One 19 year old, several in their 50's and the rest in their early 70's. More slow dances than fast. He also helped out the caterer and served iced tea when he saw the pitchers were empty! He even stayed after the reception had ended and helped clear tables. Joseph was fun and on top of everything. He even helped our photographer get some amazing shots (ours was her first wedding).

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.
