Dj Touché truly made planning my wedding a lot easier! I was a very chill bride which to some was great but to others it made things more difficult. Dj Touché has this awesome app that he sends you to choose music and I was overwhelmed with the choices! Dj touché was so patient with me and helped me pick great songs for my wedding! He even freestyled a little and he 100% nailed the vibe! The Photo Booth was truly a hit at my wedding and I had no idea I’d get to see all the pictures people were taking during the wedding! He had the pictures scrolling across the dj booth! He also had pictures of my husband and I displayed during the wedding and I had no idea he was going to do that! 10 out of 10 highly recommend!

The quality of their work and value was AMAZING - they were more personal and attentive than any other DJ we looked at. Stephen, our DJ, was amazing! He helped accommodate our drizzly weather and got everyone up and on the dance floor. I looked into several different DJs but Stephen was by far the winner, from his communication, enthusiasm, and genuine care for our special day. I would recommend using Startime Productions for any of our future events - you won't regret it!

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.

DJ Kash - Raleigh NC

With over a decade of experience, DJ Kash has been utilizing his passion for music & creativity to help clients celebrate their special moments with their loved ones while making a positive impact on their lives. Whether you're planning a South Asian Wedding or any other style of wedding or event, DJ Kash will work with you to create the perfect playlist that matches your unique style and taste. 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.

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!

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.

In a word, Stylus is AMAZING! I didn’t want the night to end as the DJ was amazing, but it wasn’t just the party that was so impressive! There were changes that occurred both before and during event and Stylus handled each and every one! They were personable, energetic, professional and attentive. They made the night so special via the music and the mic work! I can’t recommend them enough!

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,995

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.

It was meant to be for us to have Sam be the DJ at our nerdy chic wedding. On a sheer whim, we emailed him when it was clear our original plan of "oh we'll just make a few playlists" was absolutely not going to happen. Only 6 weeks out, and he was free on our date *and* had played the venue before! Fast-tracked our consult meetings, worked with us on our timeline for our very short ceremony and reception and overall had great tips and tricks. There were one or two moments during the wedding that were maybe hiccups (including me kicking the plugs out!) but he rolled with it, we rolled with it. He's so personable, everyone loved him - we're all transplants from NJ/ NY and turns out he's practically related to at least one of my family. For sure, would recommend him!

James was the DJ for my wedding just two weeks ago! Going into the planning process, I knew Born to DJ because James also did my sister's wedding. He is one of the only DJ's I know that constantly reads the crowd. If he can tell people aren't liking a song, he will change it to keep everything lively. I wanted my wedding day to be a huge party, and I really wanted people dancing for the majority of it. That is not an easy thing to do but I have seen James keep people dancing and engaged at my sister's wedding and now mine. The planning couldn't have been easier, and I always felt reassured after speaking with him. Born to DJ couldn't have done better and I highly HIGHLY recommend them.

There are not words to describe how much we loved having DJ Krystyle perform at our Aug 2024 wedding. She was very responsive, communicative, and has a super easy online portal that helps capture every detail you could think of for the event music. She’s also a lovely human in general to work with. We went with the approach of choosing the major songs and providing general recommendations around genres and let the expert handle the rest. We had multiple guests tell us they could not stop dancing or singing along the entire night. We had every age group on the dance floor. If it’s any indication - my photographer had to remind me a few times to stop bouncing around so she could get some good still shots. In our opinion, it doesn’t get any better than DJ Krystyle.

Some of my favorite performances were touring renowned concert halls in Austria including St. Peter's Cathedral and Melk Abbey. Now, I'm based in Asheville, NC and work with students of all ages sharing the joys of the harp.

Awarded Best of Zola
I knew I really wanted harp music to accompany my wedding ceremony, and as I searched for a harpist, I listened to sample pieces by a few different musicians. Tori’s style was exactly what I was looking for - the beautiful, lilting, classic sound you hear in your head when you think of harp music. I contacted her and we were immediately able to connect to talk about a date, possible music selections, and the booking process. Tori’s communication was thorough yet simple, so even though I didn’t have a wedding planner, I easily understood what I needed to do and when, what I was getting, and how things would work leading up to and including the day of the event. I ended up being a lot more selective on music choices than I thought I would be, and Tori was happy to accommodate all of my requests! Her repertoire is extensive. She even arranged a custom piece for us that was a very special, personal addition to our wedding day. Everything was picture perfect on the day of our outdoor ceremony. All of our guests were super impressed by the live harp music. They said it was so lovely, I wish I had been able to sit and enjoy the prelude with them! In addition to providing the perfect sound, both Tori and the harp were a visually stunning addition to our ceremony. Book her - you and your guests will be in for a treat!

Marlon with Go DJ ATL was a wonderful vendor who clearly has plenty of experience in his field. He can read a room at a moment’s notice and keep a party vibe going with a variety of musical styles. I can testify considering our wedding blended White and Latin families and loved ones together while managing to get everyone out on the dance floor having a great time! He played salsa, merengue, bachata, line dances, country, oldies, classical, folk all in one event but at different points! Marlon lights up a room without taking attention away from the guests of honor but rather makes sure he directs the spotlight to the couple making them feel special. He is truly a one of a kind professional with a passion for his trade who wants to make sure your day is as special as the love you share with one another. Marlon, you’ve become a friend one the course of this past year; thank you for everything and for all the attention to detail you made sure to cover. I’m so grateful we had you at our event. I know it wouldn’t have been the same or nearly as successful without you!
