    Best choice we could’ve made!!

    All Around Raleigh DJ was the best choice we could’ve made for our wedding!!

    The whole process of making sure everything was what we imagined was made so easy with AARDJ!!! We worked with Eric, and he was very professional, flexible, quick and easy to communicate with and we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!

    The music order, transitions, and timing for it all was so perfect!

    5 stars is not enough!!

    The best wedding DJ

    Eric was the best DJ we could have asked for! He was recommended by our wedding planner, Events by Emily, and really brought the party. During the planning process, he was always quick to respond and open to all our ideas. At the reception, he matched the vibe the whole evening from cocktail hour to the hora and more. We highly recommend him for a great wedding reception!

    The most fun!

    We had the best time with Eric. He was responsive, communicative, and so attentive to our needs. He took the time to get to know us and what we liked (as well as what we didn't!). The music was SUCH a highlight of our wedding day. It was so easy to trust him to play not only our requests, but music in our style and that we would dance to! I don't think the dance floor was ever still. He also kept our reception running smoothly with such joy and humor. The mic was an excellent touch for our toasts! He was absolutely on it for our ceremony music as well - from start to finish, can't recommend All Around Raleigh enough!

    SMOOTH as a fresh jar of Skippy

    Eric DJ'd my sons wedding and performed for the ceremony. Super nice guy. He was prompt to answer questions before the wedding day. He popped in by email to see how things were going. He was highly recommended by our wedding planner and she didn't lead astray. He was easy going when we had a major glitch just before the ceremony was to start. He just kept doing his thing until we were ready. He was professional and made our evening run very smooth from start to finish. I attribute much of that to Eric because he kept us moving from one event to another in a low-key manner ...ceremony, refreshment, dinner, toasts, grand re-entry of the newlyweds and the bridal party, first dances, open dance floor, the last dance and the send off! Many compliments on the beautiful and oh so fun evening. I highly recommend Eric!

    "The best DJ we have ever heard at a wedding"

    All Around Raleigh DJ is an amazing team of people! Eric and Michael worked with us through two COVID-19 wedding delays and made our party an event we will never forget! We had so many people tell us that the music was incredible and made for such a great party. People loved the music and were so engaged. Eric DJ'ed our new wedding date and did an exceptional job of helping us personalize the ceremony and wedding - and make it exactly the way we wanted! Eric handled the pre-ceremony, ceremony, dinner, and reception music. When looking for a DJ, one thing I wanted in a DJ was a great mix team - choosing from a song list and knowing what will resonate with the dance floor - and this was definitely the case with All Around Raleigh DJ. I have had many people tell me this was the best DJ they have EVER heard at a wedding. Eric even helped me to plan to sing a surprise song for my partner at our wedding reception. They are such a friendly and professional team, and I would recommend them to anyone!

    Awesome DJ

    We can't say enough good things about Eric and the rest of his team! From the moment we reached out to him, to our last song, Eric was responsive, down to earth, and accommodating. Not only did he work with us when we had to change our wedding date due to COVID, but he also helped provide live streaming services when our guest list went from 100+ down to 10. You won't be disappointed hiring All Around Raleigh DJ!

    Best DJ in the Triangle!

    Eric was AMAZING from the moment we met him until the night of the wedding. Our first meeting was so personalized that we knew we had found the perfect DJ. The night of Eric played all the right music and the night was so fun. If you are looking for a great DJ look no further- Eric is your man!

    Best Wedding DJ there is

    My husband and I got married on May 25, 2019 and hired Michael from All Around Raleigh DJ to DJ our wedding. To say Michael went above and beyond is an understatement. It's almost 2 months since our wedding and I am still hearing from guests how great Michael was. From the beginning Michael was attentive and offered great suggestions. We met multiple times throughout the wedding planning process. Our dance floor was packed from the moment Michael started playing music until the very last song. Michael listened to everything we said, offered great suggestions and had everyone dancing non stop. My husband secretly communicated with Michael about a surprise dance he had practiced and included all the guests in, Michael communicated with Jared and wow did they surprise me. We cannot say enough good things about Michael. Thank you Michael for making our day the best day of our lives.

    Do yourself a favor--hire All Around Raleigh DJ!!

    As a wedding planner, I was extremely particular when it came to selecting my vendors. My husband and I were so nervous about finding a DJ that could cater to our (very specific, old school!) musical taste. When we met Michael, we knew we had found our guy. Michael went above and beyond our wildest wedding DJ dreams--he was responsive, proactive, and listening to everything we wanted and suggested. His attention to detail is truly admirable. He followed up several times throughout the planning process, and I never once had to track him down on email. As a planner, this means the world to me! And on the wedding day, everything went flawlessly--I will treasure the memories of dancing with our guests and family forever, and Michael made all of that possible. He was fun without being super overbearing and aggressive, which was also very important to me. Also, he's just a wonderful person! We've received several rave comments about how awesome the music was at our wedding. 5 stars!!!

    Amazing Experience

    Everything from start to finish was perfect! Eric went (cliche I know) above and beyond to make sure our wedding was everything we wanted. He tailored our play list to match our style and taste. Held one on one meetings with us to go over song choices, listen to options, make sure we had the chance to choose a song for every important moment through out the day! Even beyond the music, Eric gave recommendations for other vendors. Even sent a little "You're getting married" gift! Eric, thank you for making our wedding so special! Thank you for your wonderful personality, being organized and making sure every detail was covered and being so excited to help make our day great! I absolutely recommend All Around Raleigh DJ to any and every bride!

    Eric is brilliant. We loved him! Some Dj's honestly can be creepy, and overbearing. Reminds me of the strange fair attractions where they yell "Scream if you want to go faster" . Eric is the antithesis of that. He is so friendly, and charming. Knows what he's doing, and cares about making your night the best. He gave us valuable advice throughout our planning process - on wedding topics that were not even related to music. He wants your day to be special and he goes above and beyond to make that possible. Song choices, and the whole process was easy as we were initially worried about having to use a complicated website but it was all in google docs and so straightforward. Eric also provided the music for our ceremony and guests commented on how much they loved our choice (Portuguese Love Theme from Love Actually).

    The only thing that was troublesome was we wanted to make sure our vows could be heard and that mikes were set up ahead of time. Sadly on the day it was quite windy and a lot of guests couldn't hear us. We learned that the wind/feedback was an issue.

    All of the songs on our list were played plus some additions that fitted in perfectly. Overall Eric was so lovely to work with. He made the night a great party atmosphere without it being obnoxious. All of our guests commented afterwards how great the night was and Eric was definitely a huge part of that.

    Add me to the list of people thrilled they hired Eric! He is so much fun and very easy to work with. Thanks to him, our wedding flowed beautifully and our guests had an amazing time. We met with him ahead of time and provided some guidelines on music, but other than that he handled it on his own--and he sure knows how to get people dancing. Everyone said what a great time they had and the dance floor was full the entire time. A good DJ is instrumental in a successful wedding, so be sure to hire Eric!!

    My husband and I chose Eric to help us with both our wedding ceremony and reception. We really enjoyed working with him. He was especially helpful in the planning process. His planning tools made it simple for us to decide what songs we wanted to play and when. We are big music lovers so we had a very broad array of songs we did and did not want to hear and he was very understanding. We felt comfortable turning the controls over to him on our big day, and he kept the day rolling smoothly from beginning to end without seeming too robotic. We are big fans of his and would recommend him to anyone!

    My fiance and I signed with Eric when we first met him at a wedding show. We are not the impulsive type, but having priced out DJs and learned what to look for, his pricing was fair and we had a feeling that he knew what he was doing. He educated us from the beginning but also made some correct assumptions about what we would like and what would work for us.

    As it turned out, my wife and I made an excellent impulse decision at that wedding show. Eric met with us and walked us through what to expect. He also gave us some important tips both regarding the DJ component of the wedding as well as other wedding considerations.

    Next we met with Tim Stanley, who carried the torch from where Eric left off until the moment we made our grand exit from our wedding party. During the reception, Tim kept the party going with games, lighting, time management, and even dance choreography. I was especially impressed with his ability to entertain guests of every age. And he did this all seamlessly and while checking in with my new wife and I to ensure we were happy with the process.

    In the end, we enjoyed a worry-free and fun filled night for our friends and family; which was what we hoped to achieve when we selected them.

    While I can't speak for other members of the All Around Raleigh DJ crew, the work that Eric and TIm did gives me confidence that the whole outfit is run professionally and to the highest standards. Expect the best and go with All Around Raleigh DJ!

    We absolutely loved Eric. We were a little worried about how our reception would go because our families aren't big fans of dancing... but you would never have known that if you were at our reception! We didn't give him much guidance on music, and he knew just what to play to get the dance floor going and keep it crowded. Our bridal party and guests had an amazing time and we are still hearing compliments about how much they loved our dj! He was very attentive to us and and our guests the whole evening.

    All Around Raleigh DJ kept our dance floor packed all night - book them!

    All Around Raleigh DJ managed to keep our dance floor packed all night long. Eric played every song I requested and followed my suggestions of the type of music I wanted to play to a tee. He was responsive to all of my questions and requests and made planning a breeze. My guests are still raving about how our dance floor was one of the most fun they've seen - and this is all thanks to Eric and All Round Raleigh DJ!

    Wonderful DJ

    Eric did an absolutely wonderful job. He was great to work with! He noticed when people weren’t interested in a particular song and faded out to the next one. He checked in with us and our families during the event to make sure we were happy.

    Packed dance floor the entire night!

    I truly am not being biased, Eric was the best DJ I have experienced at a wedding, and I'm lucky enough that the wedding was mine! He had the entire dance floor packed and had a great flow of songs queued up. I would highly recommend All Around Raleigh DJ to anyone planning a wedding!!
