We had AAM Entertainment for our wedding and they were THE best! We’ve been rocking with him for years and attending many weddings that also hired them and couldn’t wait for our turn. Not only the music but the up lights, the mirror booth & dancing on the clouds were a perfect hit. He even took great photos with his own camera. He kept things moving throughout the night and helped us stay on track with our timeline. Following the scheduled dances, he got the party started and knew all of the right songs to play to keep the people on the dance floor. We could not have asked for a better DJ! Also, in the planning process of our wedding, it was so helpful that AAM continued to check in with us to make sure all of our questions were answered. The Vibo app was full proof and assured we hadn't missed any steps in our planning. I would recommend them to anyone, I promise you won’t regret it. Thankyou AAM Entertainment

David with HiMotive Entertainment was easy to communicate with leading up to our wedding. He was direct in answering all of my questions. Unfortunately, he came down with COVID shortly before our big day. However, he assured me he had a replacement available. I didn't learn until afterwards that his replacement drove all the way from Florida to Virginia through Tropical Storm Debbie to ensure he could perform at our wedding! This level of dedication was so appreciated. Both musicians were prompt, friendly, and helped make our special day feel even more special. The music really brought our venue to life and set the tone for a fun, romantic evening celebrating with our nearest and dearest.

Your wedding deserves a packed dance floor, music that matches your vibe & story, and a fun experience from a DJ that is there for you, from the first message to the last song of the night! I know planning a wedding can be a lot; let's make it easier for you.

Check out my reviews to see what couples are saying. LGBTQ+ friendly; nothing but love here!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Dj Spontaneous is a crowd rocker, and when he provided the entertainment for my wedding in 2016 I didn't sit or eat. He definitely keeps his audience entertained and his transitions into each song are on point.

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.

Booking Active DJ, specifically Martin, was the best money we spent on we our wedding!!! Let me start by saying he's just really easy to work. He has a calm demeanor, is a great listener, and provided us with prompt/proactive communication which we really appreciated. The month before the wedding we met with Martin and he gave feedback on songs/confirmed the vibe we were going for. Let me just say he absolutely knocked it out of the park!!! The dance floor was packed all night which was exactly what we wanted. Everyone has commented on how great he was, telling us that he was the best DJ they've ever heard at a wedding - we even had one couple go up to him before the exit asking if he would be open to playing at their wedding next year (HA!). We cannot recommend Martin enough!! He made our day so memorable not only for us, but our guests. He was one of the biggest highlights of our day by far.

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.

I started DJing back during my college years at Penn State in 1982. In the beginning, I was helping a friend of mine who bought a complete DJ setup from a business who was selling one of their systems. We did frat parties, formals & some of the local State College bars. After college I moved to Binghamton, NY. There I had a six month radio show on a public station. I also worked some of the local bars under the name Sounds Fantastic. Fast forward to January of 2000 we moved to Raleigh,NC to bring our musical experience to the south!

Dan the DJ was professional and very fun to have as a DJ at our wedding. The only thing I would change, since the wedding was moved inside, is to have him sit with the guests during the wedding. He was in most of the pictures since he stood up by his equipment as the wedding party walked in.

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.

We put together a last-minute wedding reception plan, we sent the recommendations to Mike, and he worked everything perfectly.

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.

We set up a phone call about a week later and we just knew it was going to be the right fit! The show was amazing and the entertainers really wowed the crowd. They were funny, personable and of course talented. We would highly recommend The Copper Piano to anyone considering live music!!
