Fantastic detail oriented DJ

Stephen recently did my wedding in the mountains of NC. We did not make his life easy by having our ceremony outdoors away from any electrical hookups for his equipment, and then having our reception a few hundred yards away in a outdoor patio area with an indoor area for eating. However, Stephen was able to figure out solutions so that he could create a beautiful ambiance for our ceremony, and have the patio ready for cocktail hour immediately after the reception. He even went and checked out the venue a few weeks before the wedding, without me asking him to, just so he could get a feel for the space. Stephen was incredibly detail oriented in helping us prepare for, and plan the order of events for the wedding day. He used all of our song requests within his own playlist and kept the dance floor packed for well over 2 hours. Furthermore, he sent me pictures and videos he had taken the next morning. Stephen truly went above and beyond in helping make our wedding the best day possible. I cannot overstate how much I recommend hiring Stephen for any event, but especially for a wedding DJ.

Literally fought a hurricane to be there on our big day!

We got married on September 28th in concord North Carolina. The day after hurricane Helene hit. While the day was beautiful and sunny there were many roads closed and flooded and many areas without power. Stephen went from gas station to station to get to our wedding and left very early to find open roads to get to us. We couldn't have asked for a better dj to be there on our big day! There was always someone on the dance floor as well!! We will be recommending him to everyone who will listen or won't!

Great Entertainment

We worked with Stephen for our wedding Asheville, NC this June and have nothing but great things to say. Stephen provided a pretty straight forward approach to getting a handle on the the music and over all vibe but ended up working with us to deliver even more than expected. Rather than providing a number of specific songs we provided examples of artists and allowed him to pick the tracks that would really round out the occasion. He did an excellent job at reading the room and was able to really deliver an excellent evening. He worked with us all of the way up to the last weekend as we continued for finalize details with over vendors and was very professional to work with.

Fantastic Experience!!

Stephen was absolutely amazing from the very start. He was one of the few vendors who suggested a phone call before booking to discuss the details and see if we would be a good fit. I appreciated this so much in a time when a lot of vendors only wanted to communicate via email. I had my wedding at a bit of a non-traditional venue and he not only took the time to really understand my vision for the day, but also called the venue before booking to make sure the setup would work.

The day of the wedding every aspect of the music was seamless. He was on time and setup at the ceremony, cocktail hour and the reception. An extra impressive feat because all three took place at separate locations at the venue. I would 100 percent recommend Stephen for any type of wedding or event. He was professional, flexible, an excellent communicator and on top of that you can tell he is truly passionate about what he does. I am so grateful we hired Stephen to be a part of our day!

Amazing!

To start off, hire him! Upon arrival he was a breath of calm air during the craziness! He checked in on us multiple times through the night! He did great at feeling out the vibe of the dance floor and meeting our requests. He was so flexible with our needs and willing to make it work with us. During the reception he stayed upbeat and professional!

The next day, I kept hearing how great the DJ was!!! Worth every penny 😊😊

Amazing wedding DJ!

Stephen was an amazing DJ for my wedding. He went above and beyond to help organize and coordinate not just the music but the wedding as well. He was so intuitive choosing music from the form we gave him. Would highly recommend!!

Far exceeded expectations!

I cannot say enough good things about Stephen and the DJ services he provided for our event. He literally saved the reception, as there were last minute delays in the dinner service which required a complete timeline change. Stephen stepped up and recommended changes to the timeline, took charge of those changes, and ensured that all was well in the end. He was extremely personable, professional, and tremendously helpful with the planning for our event. On top of that, he brought a high level of energy to our party and was the highlight of the evening! I HIGHLY recommend him/his services!

Great DJ to work with

I worked with Stephen at a wedding last fall of 2022. He was a great team player and left the bride and groom very happy.

The absolute best!

We worked with Stephen for our wedding and my wife and I could not have been happier. During the planning stages, Stephen was always available (and as we got married in 2020 and all our plans changed) Stephen remained flexible and incredible to work with. I can't imagine a more perfect day and Stephen was a huge part of making that happen, from the ceremony to the after party. HE IS THE BEST!
