Look no further for the best DJ you could ever have be a part of your special day. Not only is he a great DJ but he’s a genuinely amazing person as well. From our first time talking on the phone, to putting the playlist together, to the day of our wedding he was kind, professional, communicative, and has an energy about him that takes a party to the next level and leaves you no doubt that you picked exactly the right person for the job. His skills are 10/10 and he is a 1/1. Make sure to ask about the Photo Booth too! Not only are the fees very reasonable but we loved it, our guests loved it, and it added even more fun to the best night of our lives. Thank you again! Blessings!

Booking Active DJ, specifically Martin, was the best money we spent on we our wedding!!! Let me start by saying he's just really easy to work. He has a calm demeanor, is a great listener, and provided us with prompt/proactive communication which we really appreciated. The month before the wedding we met with Martin and he gave feedback on songs/confirmed the vibe we were going for. Let me just say he absolutely knocked it out of the park!!! The dance floor was packed all night which was exactly what we wanted. Everyone has commented on how great he was, telling us that he was the best DJ they've ever heard at a wedding - we even had one couple go up to him before the exit asking if he would be open to playing at their wedding next year (HA!). We cannot recommend Martin enough!! He made our day so memorable not only for us, but our guests. He was one of the biggest highlights of our day by far.

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!!

Every vendor was exactly where they needed to be, the timeline ran seamlessly, and if anything unexpected happened, I never knew about it because she handled everything behind the scenes. That peace of mind is something you simply can't put a price on. Beyond being an incredible planner, Melissa is such a kind and genuine person. She truly cares about her couples and pours her heart into making sure your wedding day is everything you've dreamed of and more. Looking back on our wedding, everything felt effortless - and that's because Melissa worked tirelessly to make it that way. We were able to soak in every moment with our family and friends without worrying about a single thing, and that is a gift we'll always be grateful for. If you're considering hiring Melissa, PLEASE PLEASE don't hesitate. We are forever thankful for everything she did to make our wedding absolutely perfect, and we truly couldn't recommend her more highly. Thank you, Melissa, for giving us the most incredible day and memories we'll cherish for the rest of our lives!
