From the very beginning, they were attentive, informative, and transparent in their communication, which gave us a lot of confidence in their abilities.

We worked with Active Entertainment for our wedding at 128 South, and our DJ Shawn was absolutely incredible. He handled everything—ceremony music, mics for the officiant and readings, cocktail hour, dancing, lighting, and MCing—and did it all flawlessly. Shawn totally understood our vibe. He followed our must-play and do-not-play lists to a tee and added his own creative touches and fun mixes that fit perfectly. He kept the energy up all night. The dance floor was packed the entire time—people didn’t want to leave! Our friends & family are still talking about how amazing the music was. There were so many special moments, but one standout was that Shawn filmed our private last dance and sent it to us after the wedding. It was such a thoughtful surprise and something we’ll treasure forever. We can’t recommend Active Entertainment enough. Truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding and our day would not have been as amazing without Shawn!

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.

Hey, I'm Bri, a wedding and couples photographer based in Wilmington, NC, shooting all over the East Coast and beyond. I work in digital and film, mixing in 35mm, medium format, Polaroids, and Super 8 depending on your day. I'm not chasing posed shots. I'm after the real moments, the ones that happen in between, because that's where the honest emotion lives. My own wedding taught me exactly what I didn't want in a photographer, and it's shaped how I show up for every couple since. I pay attention, stay close but out of the way, and I'd love to hear about your day.

I hope at the end of reading this review, your heart is beaming with joy and excitement knowing that this is THE person who can capture those special moments you want to look back on years down the road. Long story short - CA girl moves to OH. My love and I created a home. Bri is now family. I knew all I had to do was have an Americano ready and outfits laid out. In seconds we were laughing and rollin. Bri captured the warm light that pours through the blinds of our big loft windows so magically. Her energy is genuine and calming. I loved that her style was more candid and authentic than structured because as Austin and I sipped coffee, danced around and loved each other, she was capturing those moments most dream about – the butterfly smiles, the gestures sometimes you think only you two notice, the kisses given that make your heart full. What I didn't truly realize, was how important it is to have photographer that makes you feel comfortable. This is a person seeing the most intimate, important moments of your life and I couldn't imagine anyone else being behind the lens capturing those other than Bri. I feel so fortunate to share some big life moments with Bri and can't recommend her enough. We love her and know you will too!!

Kiley was an absolute dream to work with. She communicated early and often in extreme detail and kept us informed and feeling supported every step of the way. She showed up early (but not too early!) is incredibly kind and professional and even brought a calming presence to the wedding party as we were getting ready for the big day. And most importantly her work is top tier! Editing that makes sense, amazing song selection, and captured moments that we didn’t even see as the bride and groom. 10/10. I will be recommending Velvet Letters to everyone. Attached photos are of video stills.

It was a pleasure having him there, and he even managed to capture a comet in the background of one of our photos - it was magical! We highly recommend Pelican Perch Photography for any couple looking for exceptional wedding photography.

We came to them 1 month before our wedding day and they were happy to take us under their wing so last minute :) They were responsive, easy to work with, and great at communicating. They adjusted certain items to fit within our budget, while still maintaining the vision we had in mind! I cannot recommend them enough. I was quite literally brought to tears on my wedding day when I saw what they had brought to life. It was beyond what I could have ever imagined and I am SO happy we found them when we did! The florals they created were beautiful, and I still have guests inquiring about who my florist was! They provided us with bridal/bridesmaids bouquets, table arrangements, bar arrangements, floating candles, and an arbor that was the most STUNNING backdrop for our ceremony. They provided helpful tips and suggestions to implement other elements into our design and I am so happy they did! We ended up incorporating fruits into some of our tables schemes and it was SO CUTE. The colors blended perfectly with our vision and venue. The two of them have immense talent and I feel so lucky that they were available on our wedding day. The whole day was brought together by the design/florals they put together and it made my wedding more perfect than I could have wished for! Thank you so much :)

We had a great experience working with Jade Events and Co. Kayla was our day of coordinator (which really was like month-of assistance plus day-of coordination). From our first conversation, she gave great guidance, was very organized and thoughtful. Even though I was pretty organized myself, I was constantly worried about missing something obvious because wedding planning was so foreign to me. She helped talk through our random questions and find solutions (including on the day). She seemed a little quiet/nervous handling some of our more bold family members but ultimately did well! Kayla also worked seamlessly with our other vendors. She was kind and overall a delight to work with!

The day of the wedding, they provide microphones, a quality sound system, dance floor lighting with options for uplighting, premium sound system upgrades specialty lighting, custom music mixes for special dances, and much more. There are bilingual services available, if needed. Our DJ's read your crowd and deliver an EXCEPTIONAL experience that will truly wow you and your guests.

Atlantic Premier Entertainment is the most professional, detail-oriented, friendly, and heartwarming DJ service in Wilmington. I know when they are at a wedding, it is going to be the best music! Atlantic Premier Entertainment knows how to read the crowd and play the exact song that is needed. I would recommend Atlantic Premier Entertainment to anyone and everyone who needs a DJ. They do more everything, not just weddings.

ABOUT US | Haley signed up for a college documentary class thinking it'd be an easy A. She met Kevin, fell for filmmaking and then for him, and the easy A never really panned out. Twenty-two years and 250+ weddings later, we still film every single one together. On your wedding day Kevin's the quiet one; he won't bark directions or make it feel like a set. Haley's the one who'll introduce us, keep your timeline honest, and make sure your rings get back where they belong after detail shots. We're a married couple who films married couples. We still cry at the end of every one.
