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.

We couldn't be happier with Marty at our recent wedding! From start to finish, he exceeded our expectations in every way. First and foremost, his attention to detail is amazing -- he noticed a discrepancy between the couple introduction song that we had put in the Vibo app versus what our day of coordinator had on her wedding timeline. He then reached out to the day of coordinator to figure out which song was correct. He also took the time to understand what we were looking for for our cocktail hour and wedding reception. He reached out many times prior to our wedding to check in with us and make sure that all of our questions were answered. It was clear that he genuinely cares about providing a memorable experience. Marty is also flexible. Originally the plan was for our dance floor to be outside. However, due to a heat wave we ended up deciding to move the dance floor inside. Marty was able to easily accommodate this request and he also offered to put speakers outside so guests who were out on the deck would still be able to hear the music. We also recommend going with the up-lighting. He did a great job setting up the lights. The lights actually change colors and really change the vibe of the reception room once the party gets started! The live music he delivered during cocktail hour was a standout of the night. We had so many compliments from guests about his cocktail hour performance. Another aspect that truly set Marty apart was his willingness to go above and beyond. Not only did he do a great job reading the vibe of the room in order to keep the dance floor lively, but at one point he also helped with cleaning up dinner plates. He showed a level of dedication and professionalism that's rare to find. Marty played a crucial role in making our wedding a success. We highly recommend him for any occasion!

The backbone of my DJ experience is my passionate love for music and knowing that God has blessed me with the ability to make people happy through music. I am a crowd reader and controller so whether it's 10, 20, or 1000 people, I can get your guests dancing until they sweat, LITERALLY! I look forward to seeing you on the dance floor!

DJ Creativity(Antonio) was very responsive and energetic with Zoom calls leading up to our big day and tailored questionnaires to make sure our interests were met. We loved our ceremony and Antonio’s transitions and mic management was so clear and perfect. We did not have an easy venue to manage. We had two different sites and a very small setup window. He was able to make it work and after a few challenges and tweaks, he pulled off the vibe of the reception and made that dance floor full. Very respectful and positive person to work with. We appreciate what he added to our perfect day.

Discoboxx 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,995
  • Serves Locust, NC

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.

If you're looking for the ultimate wedding entertainment experience, look no further than DJ Wade and saxophone player Jason. These two are an absolute *dream team*! They made cocktail hour and dinner so magical and created the perfect atmosphere. From the moment the reception started, they had everyone on the dance floor, and it stayed that way the entire night. Guests couldn't stop raving about them – many even said it was the best DJ and live music duo they've ever heard. The energy they brought made our wedding the most fun event many of our friends and family had ever been to. DJ Wade is a true professional. Despite giving him minimal direction, he absolutely knocked it out of the park, reading the crowd perfectly and keeping the vibe alive all night long. And adding Jason on the saxophone? Wow! It completely transformed the night, adding a unique, unforgettable vibe that made the reception feel both sophisticated and electric at the same time. Do yourself a favor and book DJ Wade. Adding Jason will take your event to the next level! We couldn’t be more thrilled with our choice – they truly made our wedding unforgettable. I can’t wait to use them again in the future!
