“The band manager, Roxanne is a SUPERSTAR! She makes the process of booking and executing SO easy. She is quick to respond, thoughtful and very helpful. The band took our song requests and even used a playlist I made for when they took breaks (I used this time to play Hispanic and Arabic songs). The band was lively all night long- the only thing I wish they would have done is interact with the crowd more. Other than that, we were so happy with their performance!”

“DJ Touche absolutely rocked the house at our wedding in Summersville, WV. Not only did he provide some awesome moments that everyone at the wedding will remember, he played exactly the type of music we wanted played the whole night. He put his twists on things and made it better than we could’ve imagined. A lot of guests at our wedding have personally reached out and told us how awesome the DJ was and how he created the best possible environment for a wedding. Not only does DJ Touche have the stamp of approval, I really hope someone I know has him at their wedding because WOW! I couldn’t have imagined our day without him.

Signature Djs

Toano, VA

DJ
Starts at $1,295
Serves Staunton, VA

Signature DJs is owned and managed by Brandon Frazier, aka "DJ House". In creating Signature DJs, Brandon recruited a team of professional and experienced DJs and event planners available to meet and exceed all of your needs. During your initial consultation Brandon will match you with the best options based on your preferences and event type. We also offer so many different options to personalize your wedding and make the experience unique for you and your guests. We have lighting, special effects, and even licensed pyrotechnicians on our team that can provide professional fireworks displays to end your night with a BANG!

“We booked the Signed Sealed Delivered package and Brandon and Kellie exceeded expectations from planning to execution. While they came as a package deal, they each deserve their own review for their excellent work. Brandon from Signature DJs provided the best possible wedding DJ service. In planning the event, he was organized and thorough in working with us on the song list and order of events which he would be emceeing. Yet he took much of the burden off our shoulders by applying extensive experience and was flexible during the event in response to guests’ musical needs. The sound system quality was remarkable. He miked our ceremony, in which there were no sound issues, including the officiant, bride, groom, and a quartet in an expansive indoor space. The sound in the reception was also crisp and voluminous without preventing conversation – a difficult achievement. Complementary to the sound, Brandon provided “up lighting,” the maximum units of which we opted for. I recommend this choice because the lighting significantly supported the festive atmosphere to an extent I did not anticipate, though I trusted Brandon’s assertion that they would. Throughout the reception, Brandon monitored and responded to the energy of the dance floor to keep the party going all the way through the end of our time. He also provided a photo booth with an extensive set of props, which was a big hit with our guests, and which was of impressive, current technology. Finally, and this is the most memorable contribution, during the toasts to the bride and groom, Brandon interjected with a musical complement to a speech, which was perfectly humorous and elevating of the moment. Such an action could easily be detrimental, but Brandon’s judgement and awareness created a memory I will forever treasure. Concurrently, day-of coordinator Kellie was organized, knowledgeable, and delivers 100%. Here are some of the reasons why I highly recommend her. First, Kellie was super organized from the start. She set up a personal website for tracking to-do items and sent reminder emails to keep me on track with planning. She also helped me devise a precise wedding day timeline, reviewed my contracts with other vendors to confirm timing, and coordinated with them as a primary point of contact. She attended my final venue walkthrough and ceremony rehearsal to ensure everything was in order. Secondly, Kellie was very knowledgeable and had an answer for every question or issue. She identified issues I hadn’t considered and gave me advice and suggestions. She also had a great eye for detail and made sure everything looked perfect on the day. She texted me pictures of changes she made for my approval. She was always one step ahead of any problem and handled it before I noticed. Finally, Kellie delivered 100% on the day of the wedding. She showed up on time and immediately took over all setup and vendor instruction. She made sure everything ran smoothly and according to the timeline. She took care of the cleanup and packing at the end of the night. She moved my decoration pieces, cards, gifts, and photo guest book (already filled with the photobooth prints) to my hotel room and displayed them beautifully on a table. I was able to enjoy every moment of my wedding day without stress thanks to her. In summary, hiring Signature DJs Brandon and Kellie was the best decision I made for my wedding day. They went above and beyond what I expected. I cannot imagine better service.”

“My fiance and I were looking for a DJ who would get the party started early on, and keep it going throughout the entire night. We found just that with DJ Mark Maskell! Mark worked closely with us throughout our planning months to curate a vibe and playlist that matched our vision perfectly. He handled everything from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to the reception and late night dancing. He was honest with his feedback, and listened extremely well, making sure to play only the genres of music that we enjoy. Our guests were up and dancing all night long and had nothing but positive things to say about Mark and his music selection. He did a beautiful job with the lighting/uplighting to accentuate all of the beautiful reception details and the dance floor party. The price for his services was also very reasonable! We highly recommend DJ Mark Maskell!”

“Kelton from Marquee Artists is awesome - he killed it dj-ing for the clients, the dance floor was non-stop going nuts the whole time! His demeanor is super low-key and easy going, and he was very easy to work with, which means a lot in this field. Weddings have lots of moving parts and can be chaotic, but having vendors that are kind and willing to work as a team makes the day go a whole lot smoother. The couple had lots of requests for songs in completely different genres, but he managed to keep the party going with no awkward pauses and seamless transitions. I highly recommend hiring him if you want someone that's going to work well with everyone and make sure to light the dance floor on fire!”

OBEHI THE DJ

5.0

Charlotte, NC

DJ
Serves Staunton, VA

Welcome! My name is Obehi (obey). I'm a Nigerian-born American. God has blessed me with many opportunities to be a full-time DJ. I take very seriously the nearly 200 weddings I've had the privilege of being a part of. I hope this curated page can show you and your family that I will give 110% of my talent and personality to aid in making your night one to remember.

“Obehi is a close friend of my wife and I, originally met him on the salsa dance floor. I knew I wanted him to DJ our wedding months before I even proposed to my wife, so booking him was a no-brainer when wedding plans officially began. We didn't even talk to/entertain the idea of other DJ vendors. He's easily the best hype man, he handled our on-the-fly suggestions during the reception, and seamlessly tied the whole party together--even troubleshooting the party RGB lighting rig DURING the reception dance set list when they stopped working for a few minutes. Coming from a computer & network technician, that's impressive in such a high-sakes environment. Thanks again for celebrating our marriage with us, my friend.”

For over seventeen years my business has focused on weddings. It is my goal to create the atmosphere you have envisioned and help make your ceremony and reception flow smoothly. My style is low key and can be summed up in a few words as, "Elegant Fun". The day should be approached with elegance and poise, but at the same time remembering it is also a celebration. After all, that’s why you have invited your friends and family to your wedding. I love what I do. I love music, and I love weddings. I take great pride in what I do but my goal is not only to play music; it is to ensure that every wedding I do is better than the one before.

“For our wedding at Keswick Vineyards, we were given a list of prospective DJs to choose from. After inquiring about their recommendation for a DJ that knew how to throw an amazing dance party, we were given TD’s information. From the detailed pre-wedding questionnaire and phone conversations to the day of our wedding, T.D. was very professional, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun. We also used T.D. for our ceremony amplification. We are happy to report that we did not have any microphone malfunctions! Most importantly, the reception was truly a party from the time we were introduced until the time we made our escape. From the lighted monogram initials, choreographed dances, and a variety of music, he made sure we had everything we asked for. T.D. kept us to our timeline and kept the guests aware of the happenings around the venue. We are so thankful to have had him as our D.J., as many memories were made on the dance floor that night. 5 stars from us!”
