Your wedding deserves a packed dance floor and a fun & stress-free experience from a top industry professional you can trust! I know planning a wedding can be a lot; let me make music the easiest part for you. I’ve been creating memorable experiences for all couples and all love, for over 17 years; where I shine is matching the music to your vibe while also reading the crowd, using real DJ transitions to keep the dance floor energy up, interacting with the crowd, and working with all the other vendors to keep the event running smooth.

Where do I even start? Marty is just the best. Planning a wedding by myself was very stressful. I am from a Persian background, and I wanted to have an American wedding while also implementing my culture. From the moment that I spoke with Marty, I knew he was the perfect DJ for our wedding. He has a calming and reassuring energy that not only assured me we could get any type of music we like, but he helped me plan my entire timeline. Every single time I had a concern, he would have a solution. He used an app that allowed me to add the music I wanted, including Persian music. At our walk-through, he worked with our other vendors to make sure the layout was perfect for us on our wedding day. Then finally on the wedding day we got to see how great he really is. He was checking in and helping keep us on schedule. When we got to the dance floor he mixed Persian music with American songs so perfectly that there was not a single person sitting down. It was so awesome seeing all of my relatives and all of my husband’s family dance together. And there is no way this could have been possible without Marty Nightengale! Everybody loved him, and I would hire him again and again and again.

Paige and Holly were a dream to work with! Music and dancing was one of the highest priorities for our wedding. Paige and Holly understood my vision and music taste immediately, and we knew we could trust them for an incredible party. They took all of my favorite songs and wielded them expertly to keep the dance floor packed all night --- from Stevie Nicks to Chappell Roan. Our wedding night wouldn't have been the same without them, and I wish I could relive that dance floor a million times over. We have gotten countless compliments on our wedding music and how much fun our guests had.

A Bride’s DJ - North Carolina

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,495
  • Serves Arden, NC

Diana and Robby, Owners of A Bride’s DJ, feel especially qualified because they both like to celebrate more than the average human. Robby is willing to wear a costume for any reason. Having a themed event? He has dressed up & made announcements like a pirate. Arrr! We have a small team of DJs who have each performed at 100 to 1500 weddings. Our DJs extensive experience & training ensures a smooth planning experience for clients, excelling in communication, are ego-free (so you get what YOU want), detail-oriented, and most importantly…they actually mix the music.

DJ Tony and A Bride’s DJ was beyond what we could ever ask for our wedding day. From the very beginning, both Diana and DJ Tony were attentive, understanding, and incredibly responsive to our music preferences and vision for the reception. (Btw, they are so kind and thoughtful which really made a difference throughout our whole wedding planning and wedding day.) We cared a lot about music and we had particular preferences even though we didn’t have any specific songs in mind. We told DJ Tony what music style we generally liked and the age range of our guests. His mixing skills and how he transitions between songs is just incredible. From day 1, we trusted his skills and was comfortable telling him about our vision. We can tell DJ Tony loves music. If we told him we wanted a LOTR themed wedding I know he’d pull off the best party. His curated playlist, talented mixing skills and DJing created an unforgettable party atmosphere that our guests raved about - they said it was even more fun than any club or party they'd been to! The energy and music were truly top-tier, making our wedding the best celebration beyond what we’d imagine. We are so grateful to DJ Tony, Diana, and A Bride's DJ for helping make our whole wedding experience truly incredible.

Extremely trustworthy, punctual, great at their job, and just great people overall on a personality level.

He conquered a tough challenge with that! Victor is extremely flexible to where the guest can create the entire playlist to their desire, or have no part in it and just relax and coast and let Victor do the work! The Photobooth addition is an absolute must-add, and really added another dimension for wedding guests, at an affordable price!

Jermaine "Dj Spontaneous" was the Dj for our wedding. His tagline of no boring weddings fits exactly what you get from him. From his preparation prior to the wedding getting a sense of the attendee demographics to the day of execution Jermaine was phenomenal. EVERY one of my guest raved about how great the dj was and, how much fun they had dancing all night. He did what was almost impossible because of our faith and personal beliefs we had certain parameters for the music but not every attendee has those same views he pleased our younger guests, our older guest and everyone inbetween. I'm very thankful to have had him Dj our special day.

Mixology was started in 2017 when owner, Roman Brown, saw a need for more entertaining and energetic wedding DJ's in the Carolinas after moving from New York. Their goal is to help make your wedding night as special and fun as you'd imagined it would be.

We were stressed about a DJ as we had never hired one before, and had heard horror stories about people's bad dj experiences. From our very first phone call with Mixology, Roman put us at ease. He was knowledgeable and walked us through everything step by step, it was clear to us he had lots of experience. He was kind and understanding, given we had a TON of questions. He sent us some mixes as well to help us understand he really mixes music together, not just presses play on a playlist. With that, we were more than confident to book. Roman's presentation on the night of our wedding absolutely BLEW US OUT OF THE WATER! He was involved, enthusiastic, and exciting to watch and listen to. He kept everyone moving and the beats never stopped. Each song rolled into the next one flawlessly and had everyone on their feet all night. He set the bar HIGH for the standard of DJ i want to have at any more events, so i don't think i'll look anywhere else to book. Mixology is your one stop shop for great entertainment, and great communication & customer service. I wish i could give more than 5 stars!!! Thank you Roman, for making our night so special!!

ECE InfiniteSoul are THE BEST! InfiniteSoul went above and BEYOND at our wedding! They were truly the talk of the town. Robert, the band leader, has the most amazing can do attitude and a fabulous and efficient communication style. We loved how interactive they were with us and the guests - including playing the sax and singing right on the dance floor! They were a true band of fun loving and talented people. To top off the night all of the guests jumped in the ocean - who joined in on the fun? InfiniteSoul! They came ready to celebrate and have just as much fun as us! We wish they were at every wedding we attended!! It was such a pleasure to work with Reid at East Coast Entertainment. He thoughtfully helped us pick the perfect band for our style and we so appreciated how organized he was! Thank you SO much InfiniteSoul and ECE!
