Marty was a PHENOMENAL DJ for my recent North Carolina wedding. His friendliness, attention to detail and flexibility to our musical preferences all stood out in both our initial meeting and the reception party. Not only was he well-organized in how to build out his playlists for the reception alongside our input, but his audio setup worked perfectly for the ceremony and provided great sound for every step of the day.

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.

The Bunn DJ Company was absolutely incredible to work with for our wedding.

On the day of, he was an absolute professional, arriving early to set up the perfect sound system and lighting that kept our guests dancing all night long. As our MC, Mark was engaging, fun, and made sure the night ran smoothly - he even checked in with me (the bride) a few times to make sure I was happy with how things were going, which I really appreciated.

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.

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.

  • Serves Research Triangle Park, 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.

From the moment we reached out to Stylus S.E., we got incredible service from Jason and Spencer. They were clear, succinct, and prompt in their communication, making the entire planning process super easy and fun. Our DJ Spencer was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our reception was a proper party. It was so fun that my guests are still talking about it! The quality of their work was professional, high quality and worth every penny. All around, it was a 12/10 experience and we highly recommend Stylus S.E. for any couple looking for a top-notch wedding DJ. They are THE BEST WEDDING DJS IN RALEIGH.

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!

Her up beat energy and positive attitude made everyone feel so comfortable. She captured every special moment so beautiful and our photos are absolutely stunning and her experience just as amazing as the photos. I am beyond grateful and would recommend her a thousand times over!

Hi! I’m Mirna, founder of Magnolia Blue! Certified wedding planner. An immigrant from Egypt who loves exploring and engaging in several creative outlets. My degree is in interior architecture as I have been passionate about interior design for as long as I can remember! I love interior design just as much as I love event planning, so I decided to take my two passions and spin them into one thing. I bring the beauty of decor as well as the organizational skills needed to make your wedding the fairytale wedding that you deserve! At Magnolia Blue, I try my best to work with everyone’s budget to bring their expectations and dream style to life!

Very nice communication skills and when I needed her she helped me right away. She did everything for me from A-Z. I would 100% recommend her for anyone that is getting married.
