Stylus S.E.

Apex, NC
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,695
  • Offer

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.

Tuuba Tuncer Photography 

5.0

Apex, NC
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style

I’m Tuuba*, an artist, adventurer, explorer, mother, educator, wife and much more. I have an MFA from Boston University in visual arts. Photography has been more than a hobby for me. Throughout my life and education, I have often used photography as a medium to explore my artistic endeavors. *pronounced “Too-baa”

We loved working with Tugba so much! From the moment I (the bride) met her I knew that I wanted to work with her for our wedding, and we are so glad that we did; she was very professional (responsive to communications, patient with the number of questions we had) and accommodating throughout the entire three years that we worked with her as we had to reschedule our wedding TWICE! Tugba has such a wonderful eye and is very experienced; she captured all the key moments that we indicated we wanted captured, and took other photos we didn't even know that we wanted but are so glad that we have. Also, neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but Tugba directed us into the best lighting and poses to make sure we looked our best. She and her second photographer were as unobtrusive as possible throughout the event, while still managing to capture some really amazing candid shots that we are going to cherish as much as the posed ones. We do not have the words to express how much we love our wedding photos -- they are gorgeous and every time we look at them we are able to relive our magical day. We would highly recommend Tugba for your photography needs.

We are so excited to meet you! We're Raleigh Weddings, a wedding planning and coordination team based right in the heart of North Carolina (but celebrating love everywhere)! Since 2022, we have provided wedding planning and coordination services for all types of different days, couples, and love stories. We approach every element of your wedding day thinking about the intention and story behind it - if it's not reflective of you or your love, then why the heck do it? More than just another vendor, we are your friends, your advocates, your shoulders to lean on. We can't wait to make your "best day ever" exactly that (and more).

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, this is your sign: DO IT. You’ll thank yourself later! From our first call, Carina’s warmth and skill shined through. She asked such intentional questions to get to know me, my fiancé, and our vision for the wedding. It was clear from the start that she had this incredible balance of being kind and approachable while also professional, organized, and proactive. One of my biggest priorities was making sure my mom, who lives out of state, could stay involved in the planning process. Carina handled this seamlessly. She coordinated virtual meetings with my mom and me, facilitated in-person meetings when my mom was in town, and kept us all on the same page with regular updates through her planning platform, emails, and check-ins. Everything felt smooth, and no detail was overlooked. Her vendor recommendations were another highlight. She had options for everything we needed, often at different price points, and always kept our budget and vision in mind. I appreciated how she kept things manageable and made sure we stayed true to what we wanted without feeling overwhelmed. When I started to second-guess decisions, Carina was there with honest, supportive advice that helped me move forward with confidence. What made her even more special was how much she genuinely cared. Every meeting or call started with her checking in on how we were doing—not just with wedding stuff, but personally. That kind of thoughtfulness made such a difference during a busy and emotional time. When the wedding weekend came, Carina and Ally went above and beyond. They handled all the logistics, coordinated with vendors, and made sure my family and wedding party had clear timelines and everything they needed. My fiancé and I didn’t have to worry about a thing, which let us stay fully present and enjoy the day with the people we love. In hindsight, hiring Carina was the best decision we made—she turned what could have been overwhelming into an enjoyable, seamless experience, exceeding every expectation along the way. We are forever grateful! We love you, Carina!!

We are so grateful and glad that we found Myesha at Belton Bliss Events for our wedding. From the first moment we met her, we had a gut feeling that she was the right person to help us, and we were so right. Our wedding was pretty big (140 people) with lots of moving parts, and Myesha was integral to it being the best wedding we could have ever asked for. Our guests raved about how smooth and fun everything was, and we stayed ahead of schedule for almost the entire day. When I asked her mid-day if anything catastrophic had happened, she said "I would never tell you if it had" and I trusted her completely to handle anything that came up. And she did! As a testament to how wonderful Myesha is, and how she will go above and beyond for her couples: At the end of the night, we left the venue for our after party... and about an hour later, we realized Myesha had walked over to tell us that we'd left our cake and leftover food behind! We were prepared to send a family member to grab it, but Myesha instead got our hotel key, ran across town and delivered everything to our room so it was there when we got back from our after-party. Even when I woke up at 4 am on the wedding day with an idea for something I wanted to make happen, she said "Don't worry about it" and made it happen. We love Myesha, and you cannot go wrong hiring her!

Choose us for a celebration that's as unique as your love story!

We can’t thank Micah enough for guiding us through this wedding process! We booked her for the day of package, since I (bride) had a work history that overlapped with event decor. I can’t recommend booking her enough, even if you think you’ve “already got this”— she has a ton of insight and protected us from getting too stressed over anything. She went above and beyond her stated duties and we felt so fortunate. She held our hands when we needed it, but also gave us the flexibility and room to make our own creative decisions. That being said- her design instincts are broad for any theme, and absolutely gorgeous. Her team is fabulous too- very professional, detail oriented. Everything went off without a hitch, and we are so glad to be able to look back at that moment in our lives with a feeling of joy and connectedness, not stress and burnout.

My name's Megan, but my friends call me Meg. Lover of sunshine, tacos, puppies and country music. A mom of three, wife to my goober of a husband, project manager by day, and the photographer that is going to convince you how important it is to invest in capturing life’s sweetest moments. Heads up, we will be friends! I know the value of memories that photographs carry, so I am all in with you from the beginning.

We had the best experience working with Megan for our engagement and wedding shoot. She made us feel at ease and comfortable, especially as a couple who’s not used to being in front of the camera. Once we saw our engagement shoot pictures, I knew we had made the right decision in selecting someone to capture our special day! Megan helped us develop a timeline and prioritize elements and details of our wedding that were most important for us to capture. Our whole wedding day, I felt very comfortable and confident- I knew Megan understood our vision. She was very accommodating, making sure to capture what was important to us. Again, she made being in front of the camera feel effortless. I am blown away with the sneak peek pictures we got back. She absolutely captured our vision, our guests, and my husband and I perfectly. Everyone I’ve sent pictures to has raved about how amazing they look. Her photos are truly stunning and I can’t wait to see our whole gallery. I would absolutely work with Megan again in the future!

Sarah started playing harp for weddings in 2009 at the age of 14. She has loved playing at weddings, anniversary parties, rehearsal dinners, and elopements ever since. She effortlessly brings ambiance of every event she attends, creating a magical atmosphere with her music. Whether your dream wedding is an intimate gathering or a grand affair, Sarah will help bring your vision to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am writing this review about Sarah. First of all, she was so great at being responsive which right off the bat was a big deal for me. Planning a wedding is stressful but during our first initial meet through Zoom I was immediately put at ease. Second, booking her was extremely easy and fairly priced. Thirdly, she was on time and I balled my eyes out walking down the aisle to beauty and the beast. I've never heard the harp in person and it was an experience I will never forget. She made my event elegant and elevated in all the right ways. If I ever have an excuse to bring Sarah back to another event, I WILL and will recommend her to anyone looking for calm, beautiful music for any event. Thank you thank you thank you Sarah!

Hello, my name is DJ Joey B. My job is to make your next event, One To Remember! I do not scratch, I just play the best music tailored to your event. I have been DJing professionally since 2005. I have had the opportunity to DJ all types of events. I got my start while I was working for Pearson Music Company. While there I was learning about live sound setups and DJ setups. I made friends with many of the local DJ’s in the area. They told me I should put my love of music together with my knowledge of sound equipment and bring music to the masses.

Joseph introduced himself to us BEFORE asking for any deposits or contract signatures. He listened to what we were looking for and worked with us to get the best playlist for the age range of our guests. One 19 year old, several in their 50's and the rest in their early 70's. More slow dances than fast. He also helped out the caterer and served iced tea when he saw the pitchers were empty! He even stayed after the reception had ended and helped clear tables. Joseph was fun and on top of everything. He even helped our photographer get some amazing shots (ours was her first wedding).

I had the pleasure to work with Candy a few months ago, and we had an amazing experience. She is very kind, organized and professional. I'm always nervous about working with other vendors at weddings, but Candy was very friendly and approachable. I absolutely recommend her to other vendors and couples looking for a photographer.

Justin was amazing throughout the wedding planning process. As part of the package he took our engagement photos, this was to help get to know us and what we liked and didn't like. I think this was part of the reason we were so comfortable during the wedding. My family really enjoyed interacting with Justin and was amazing with how many photos he took during the ceremony and at the reception. We also had a 2 hour gap between the ceremony and reception, and I think that helped with taking out time to get all the family photograph and couple pictures. During the engagement and ceremony we had out dog involved, and got some amazing photos with Lilly, which was great. Justin's style is a little more muted, and looks amazing with the outdoor locations we choose for the engagement and ceremony. He did a great job of capturing both posed and candid photos, and helped us get comfortable with the 'posed candid' photos of us walking or goofing off. Can't wait to get the rest of our wedding photos, but the engagement and sample we've gotten was amazing.

This venue is by far the best one out there. It is absolutely STUNNING. The brick walls, chandeliers, beautiful drapes- all of it, just beautiful. The staff was so wonderful, kind, and attentive. Every bartender and server was delightful (special shout out to Susanna and Sarah! You made my mom, the mother of the bride, feel like a million bucks! And that cooling towel for my husband was clutch!) They ensured every guest was happy throughout the entire evening. The food was outstanding - highlights were the chicken and waffle appetizer, Mac and cheese, and prime rib! But honestly compliments to the chef on every item!!
