We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding day! From start to finish, he was personable, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. A few days before the big day, he gave us a call just to make sure we were aligned on the vibe we wanted—and he nailed it! He created a beautiful atmosphere with special touches like uplighting and the “dancing on clouds” effect for our first dance, which made the moment feel magical. The music was a perfect blend of gospel, 90s reggae and R&B, soca, and more—exactly what we were hoping for. What we appreciated most was his professionalism paired with a warm and easygoing personality. He truly cared about making our day special and it showed. If you're looking for someone who will bring the right energy, keep the event flowing smoothly, and offer unforgettable enhancements, he’s the one. Highly recommended!

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. The soft glances, the gentle laughter, the way your hands find each other without thinking. Those are the moments that tell your story honestly. 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.

My wedding is March of 2025 but so far she has captured our engagement session and also my boudoir session for my grooms wedding gift!

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,695
  • Serves Stem, 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 met Spencer at a wedding expo in Raleigh and immediately knew he would be a good fit to DJ our wedding. He was INCREDIBLE. Everyone loved him. He kept everyone dancing the entire time. Everyone from every generation was on the dance floor (which was important to us). Spencer even jumped on the dance floor a few times and the crowd went WILD! Our wedding was a blast because of him. Also, working with Stylus was the best experience. There are so many moving parts to a wedding and you work with so many different vendors, Stylus was by far our favorite. They were professional, organized, and easy to communicate with. 5 stars all around.

Words can't express how amazing Bre was to work with!

I didn't have to worry about how anything looked or how the "flow" of events would work because Bre was on top of it all. I am so thankful to have had her help for the months, days, hours and minutes of this entire process. She has been the sweetest person from the minute I inquired with her all the way through our post-wedding conversations!

DJ Kash can create sets that cut across cultures and generations. Get ready to dance the night away! For more info, visit www . djkashNC . com

DJ Kashif was the DJ for the mehndi of my multi-cultural (Pakistani and Palestinian) wedding. Naturally, for a mixed Desi and Arab wedding, it's always a point of concern to make sure people from both cultures are enjoying the music and having a good time throughout the event. DJ Kashif did a fantastic job in his song selection for the event. Attendees of the event had absolutely no complaints about the music (which is extremely impressive for mixed weddings) and had everyone on the dance floor. He was able to play mehndi mixes that were brought last minute with zero issue, and had a great personality for livening up the crowd. The uplighting that he brought for the dancefloor completely changed the mood and got everyone reenergized too! For the venue we were at, he was able to fix issues related to the light/power going out quickly and was able to change the lighting too. Truly, from start to finish he did a great job and I only wish I found him earlier to DJ at the other events too.

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!

We didn't give much time to ourselves and our minister to plan a great wedding but once the day came, everything was just perfect. Upon first meeting our minister, she was quick to help get us started and teach us how the ceremony would go. She gave us examples of other wedding ceremonies and told us in her own experiences how people react during their own ceremonies. It honestly helped us to plan the perfect wedding. We never had a rehearsal and there was some last-minute logistics to plan on the wedding day but by the end of it, everything ran smoothly. We received compliment after compliment of our ceremony and wedding day as a whole and it would have never been possible without her. She is the best and well worth it. Look no further than Kayelily.

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!
