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.

We had the BEST experience with AAM Entertainment! They created a wedding playlist that catered to all of the guests that came to our wedding. Even after the wedding, our guests continue to tell us how great the DJ's were! They were super organized with all of the speeches we wanted to give, special dedications, etc. They were also extremely flexible and interactive throughout the night. When my husband hopped behind the bar to make his famous whiskey sours, they announced it and played a special song (this was all unplanned). It ended up being a really cool moment for not only our guests, but also my husband! AAM Entertainment made our wedding the best night and we can not recommend them enough!

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!

Stylus S.E. 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,695
  • Serves Durham, 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.

Jason, Spenser, and the rest of the Stylus SE team are hands down the BEST! They have played for our Christmas party three years in a row (in addition to many many weddings I've gotten to be apart of) and every time they play, guests have the greatest time. Not only are they very talented (remixes like you could never imagine, no smooth song transitions *so important*, and excellent MC) but they are reliable, easy to work with, and will 100% come through with everything they say they will. Jason cares so much about his clients and making sure no detail is overlooked. You could not be in better hands or have a more action-packed dance floor if you choose to hire Stylus!

I started Discoboxx in 2022 to bring a more stylish and tasteful approach to weddings and events in North Carolina. For ten years, I was fortunate to help grow two of the biggest and most successful DJ collectives in Los Angeles, DJing hundreds of weddings and playing at the most stunning event venues and nightlife spots. When my family decided to move to Raleigh, I knew I would have the opportunity to create a new experience for clients in The Tar Heel State looking for something different. A wedding DJ company for couples not looking for a “wedding DJ.”

It's a real pleasure to photograph weddings where Discoboxx is the DJ because we know folks are going to be dancing. Ralph is an expert in catering music to his couples' tastes while also keeping the party going. He's kind, communicative, professional, and absolutely amazing at what he does. We recommend Discoboxx enthusiastically and often.

I don’t have enough good things to say about DJ Obehi! As a professional dancer, obviously I’m a firm believer that the DJ can make or break a dance floor, and DJ Obehi absolutely MADE IT!

My wife and I are so thankful that we chose Good Musicians for our wedding reception. Philip and his team were one of the biggest highlights of our night, from their vocals to showmanship, everything about their performance was world class and made for a truly memorable evening for us and our guests. In addition to not only being incredible performers, they were also wonderful and easy to work with as we were in the process of planning our wedding. They laid out everything they would need in terms of setup and seamlessly integrated into conversations with our wedding planner and venue when it was time to talk about details. Additionally, they allow you to curate your wedding playlist on Spotify, so you and your partner can add songs to the list as you start thinking through the musical themes of the evening – and with so many talented performers at Good Musicians, that can become a very extensive list. Finally, Philip, the band members and the entire Good Musicians team really did care about making this an amazing experience for us and our guests. There were constant check ins with us, ensuring we had what we needed, thoughtful questions asked throughout the planning process making sure everything was to our specifications and an overall willingness to work with us on all of our requests. Throughout the night and next day, we had so many guests comment about how amazing the band was and how much fun they had dancing all night to the litany of songs that were played.

The day of the wedding he introduced us for our grand entrance, speeches, cut our music for our first dances, listened to the crowd, and was just truly SO MUCH FUN. We danced the entire night away. We highly recommend Daryle!!!

Dj Dez from Picture Perfect Muzic did amazing for both our wedding ceremony and reception. From the start of the planning process to the end of the wedding he was great. Wish we would’ve had a little more time during our reception because he had everyone up and dancing. Couldn’t have had a better Dj.

The Barnstorm 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $15,000
  • Serves Durham, NC for additional fees

The Barnstorm is an NYC-based party rock wedding band, best known for their electric and engaging dance party receptions. It's been said they're "not a real wedding band," but rather "an incredibly fun and engaging band that just happens to absolutely rock weddings!" Whether it's today's hits, top 40, hip hop, classic rock, Motown, and all things in between, The Barnstorm can do it all - putting their own spin on everything they do.

Awarded Best of Zola
Highly, highly recommend the Barnstorm for a wedding or any event. We hired them for our wedding the last weekend of September 2019 in Montauk, and they absolutely put the night over the top! First and foremost, they are a great band; not your typical “wedding band”. They aren’t cookie cutter (i.e. you won’t hear them playing the same songs that you hear at every wedding) and they certainly aren’t stiff. They vibe off each other and the room. They are legitimately having a fun time performing with each other and that permeates throughout the room. Everyone will be up dancing, singing, drinking, and sweating their butts off, and having a blast! What to expect: -Professionalism. Brooks responds promptly and covers all bases. No detail will be overlooked during the planning stages. Day of, they get to the venue well ahead of time to sound check and make sure everything is sounding perfect. During the event, they are great at providing direction and making sure everything runs smoothly. -Personalization and flexibility. The guys truly care about making the event as special as possible and are very open to any idea to bring the event over the top. In addition to our “special request” songs (which they nailed) the band was incredibly gracious at my request to join them onstage to “surprise” my wife and guests by playing a song along with them. It could not have gone over any better…my wife was thrilled and it absolutely brought the house down! -Party! They know what will get everyone up and moving. Their catalogue of songs is well over 200 and it includes all decades and genres. Multiple guests commented that they didn’t want to leave the dance floor to get dessert or go to the bathroom because every song was such an amazing jam. The Barnstorm is absolutely worth every penny. We knew they were the right band for our wedding the first moment we heard them at Hill Country, and we feel so lucky and grateful to the guys for playing our wedding. On top of it all, my wife, friends, and I get to continue to relive that night by seeing their gigs throughout NYC! We simply cannot say enough great things about The Barnstorm.
