The Willis J Team Literally Rocked Our World!

Working with the team at Willis J was a truly outstanding experience that began with our first inquiry and sadly ended at the end of the wedding reception. Everyone we encountered listened thoughtfully, respected our budget and playlist, and were professional throughout the entire wedding day. Darnell handled the introductions, speeches, and announcements like the pro that he is. The dance floor was full throughout the night with a variety of music that encouraged generations of family and friends to dance the night away. While we provided some songs that were important to play, Darnell made choices that contributed to the overall amazingness of our night. Thank you, Willis J, and your entire team!!

Great Experience!

We had such a great experience with Willis J Entertainment. They came highly recommended by our wedding coordinator and now we know why! They met with us prior to our wedding to get all details of what we wanted and didn't want. They followed everything perfectly and the songs they played for us during the reception got everyone on their feet! Chance was our DJ and was very professional but also knew how to have a good time too! We can't recommend them enough!

Best DJ ever!!

DJ Willis is absolutely the best! We highly recommend him and his team for any event, you will get the best value. He knew exactly what we needed for our wedding. His DJ skills are flawless, perfectly transitioned songs, and kept the crowd dancing all night long! He provided us with a photo booth team and it couldn’t have been better, everyone had so much fun! He is also a genuinely cool guy and super friendly, he helped us feel at ease the whole process leading up to and during our wedding. Thank you DJ Willis with helping us create the most perfect wedding we could ask for :)

The Heart and Hype of Our Wedding Reception!

We cannot recommend Willis highly enough! Not only did he nail every song we wanted, but he also brought so much positive energy and fun into every moment. He hyped up the room, vibed with the crowd, and made everyone feel like part of the celebration! He also made the planning process feel organized, stress-free, and genuinely fun. The easy online music portal made selecting songs a breeze, and he was always responsive, cheerful, and excited to help with any questions or ideas. It felt less like working with a vendor and more like collaborating with a friend who wanted our wedding to be as fun and unforgettable as possible. If you want a DJ with fantastic taste, amazing energy, and a true passion for creating unforgettable memories, Willis is the one!

Best DJ ever!

Willis was so wonderful to work with! He was extremely responsive via email, had an easy-to-use portal that outlined all the important information and showcased tons of songs to choose from (with options to add more), and always brought the best energy. My husband and I enjoyed every call with him as he clearly outlined next steps and made us feel confident that the day of our wedding would run smoothly. Sure enough - the ceremony ran perfectly and the reception was lots of fun with everyone on the dance floor. We highly recommend Willis for any event, and especially for a wedding where you want to get the crowd going. The best!

Willis is what WE'RE talking bout!!! AMAZING!

Willis was AWESOME! He had several phone meetings with us beforehand to discuss any questions we had and how the whole night would be handled. His portal was so helpful in organizing the songs we wanted played, actually choosing those songs, and conveying anything else we needed him to know for our big day. His personality is fantastic, full of energy and his mix kept the crowd jumping all night!! Thank you Willis for the wedding dance party of our dreams!!

A Curated Night with Family, Friends, and an Incredible DJ!

If you're looking for a DJ that has great equipment and is good... then keep it moving. BUT if you're looking for a DJ who is insanely brilliant, has great equipment, can excite any crowd, sees you as people, and is totally present every step of the way, then DJ Willis is your only choice.

After being lucky enough to land Willis, we met up with him at a restaurant for an introduction, and it quickly became like meeting up with a friend. We talked about some of our favorite artists, where we bonded over Lupe Fiasco, The Roots and a few artists we both dislike who I'll leave unnamed. Nonetheless, I knew after the first minute that Willis was going to help make my wedding unforgettable! Working with Willis never felt like work, but an incredible journey of curating a night of our favorite hits to be celebrated with our family and friends. We even had special music (a live rendition during the bridal entry, a singing of the Lord's Prayer, and a live song with an accompanying guitarist for our first dance) which Willis not only helped to make happen, but kept organized to the T. There wasn't a single song played that we didn't want and Willis did everything in his power to play everything we wanted while keeping a flow and the dance floor bumping! A special highlight was Willis coming out on the dance floor with us to "No Hands," and him telling me he's never heard another wedding use the "All of the Lights (Interlude)" as an entrance song for a ceremony. Willis made the big details BIG, but he also made all of the little intricate details just as important. I couldn't think of our wedding without Willis, and am also happy to walk away with a friend in the process!

Truly a 10/10 experience!

A wedding party to remember!

We were so impressed with DJ Willis at our wedding! Even though we had a small group, he kept the music flowing and the energy high all night. After all of the formal events, we spent the last two hours of the wedding dancing almost nonstop. He was friendly, easy to work with, and went above and beyond to accommodate our music requests for the ceremony walk and our first dance. He also took special requests from our guests, which made it even more fun. An amazing DJ and a great guy overall - we wish we had another reason for a party so we could hire him again!

best wedding DJ

Willis J Entertainment and DJ Chance were amazing. He played most of the songs from our playlist and had a great mix of music. Chance helped the evening run smoothly with the agenda and was very professional and on time.

Amazing DJ!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the very beginning, Willis was an incredible communicator—professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect.

Thanks to him, we felt completely relaxed and at ease, knowing everything would be taken care of.

Truly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. Highly, highly recommend Willis!

Best Wedding DJ!

We are so happy that DJ Willis was a part of our wedding celebration! Throughout the planning process, he was very responsive to all of our questions, and also very easy going and reassuring, and all of that helped put our minds at ease and give us confidence that he would deliver the day of. We had seen several reviews about how great DJ Willis is at reading the crowd and customizing the playlist to keep the party going no matter who is in the room, and that definitely proved true. He also brought extra backup equipment, so we never had to worry about anything malfunctioning. DJ Willis was a great emcee for the reception, plus he took several videos so that was a fun bonus to be able to have. We also rented our photo booth through him - during planning we had a hard time deciding if we wanted a photo booth or not but in the end we were so glad we did it, and it was worth the cost. Highly recommend working with DJ Willis!

Hire this man immediately!

You simply cannot go wrong with DJ Willis. He is an absolute top notch professional and such a great guy. Working with him was a breeze and he's so willing to go above and beyond-- for example, helping take the lyrics out of a song I wanted for my walk down the aisle so it could be instrumental. Or my very last second request to play songs between the toasts. He did it all with a positive attitude and showed genuine care for making our day great. I'm kind of a freak about the music at my events and ensuring the volume/timing is right, and he completely nailed it. So many of my guests commented specifically on how great the music was. Willis is the best and you need him at your event!

The vibes were IMMACULATE, look no further!

DJ Willis brought the most immaculate vibes and emotions to our wedding this past May 12th. From our American Ceremony in the morning to our Indian Ceremony, Willis was the perfect balance and blend of attention to detail, efficiency and timing.

And don’t even get us started on our reception- from the first song to open up the dance floor to straight banger after bangers- I haven’t seen a dance floor that lit! You could tell he knew every song on the playlist and what to mix when and when to play what - we were absolutely blown away by DJ Willis and felt so fortunate and honored that we were able to book him as our DJ for our wedding.

Music evokes emotions. Music evokes feelings. Music makes you make memories. If you want any of that at all, book DJ Willis and you won’t be disappointed!

the GLUE that held everything together!

Willis was amazing from beginning to end! My wedding day had so many moving parts but it was such a relief knowing that I did not have to stress about the DJ’s responsibilities. Music is so important to me and played such a crucial role in our wedding and he nailed every little detail!!

So much fun!

DJ Willis really brought the party to our wedding! He’s extremely professional, great with communication, and played bangers all night. He could read the crowd and figure out what to play next, and we all loved how he mixed the songs together. He’s super organized and his portal houses everything he will need for the night. You need to book him, you won’t regret it!

Stop being overwhelmed with other DJ options and BOOK WITH DJ WILLIS TODAY

If you want perfectly timed audio and banger-after-banger on the dance floor, stop being overwhelmed with other DJ options and BOOK WITH DJ WILLIS TODAY! We were impressed with him even before we visited his website because the word of mouth reviews were so electric. His website outlines his pricing and packages, which took care of all of our needs and more. He is very easy to communicate, very accommodating, and you can tell that he brings so much excitement to every event that he (and his team) does.   

We had an outdoor ceremony and he had an entire separate setup for that, making sure that our guests had music to listen as they arrived, and made sure that our entire ceremony was synchronized according to our specific timeline. There were no weird cuts, no bad transitions, and the audio was clear for everyone to hear. For our reception, he championed us with our grand entrance, emceed our speakers, and made sure to keep everyone engaged and motivated. When it came time to dance, oh boy did he keep us on the dance floor. The music choice was incredible, and he definitely knows how to read the room and the crowd. We could tell that he was paying specific attention to how we were responding to songs, and made sure to play banger after banger. At this point, we weren’t surprised to see our wedding coordinator (Shoutout to Hosea House Collective) breaking it down on the dance floor with us.   

If you’re looking to bring life and soul to your event, DJ Willis and his team will be its heartbeat.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with DJ Willis J! From start to finish, he was incredibly easy to work with—always professional, responsive, and communicative throughout the planning process. On the day of our wedding, he kept the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long. Our guests had a fantastic time, and we received so many compliments on the music and overall vibe. We highly recommend DJ Willis J to anyone looking for a DJ who knows how to create a fun, memorable experience!

Awesome dj!

My spouse and I had the pleasure of having Willis J Entertainment as our DJ for our wedding celebration, and we couldn’t have been more thrilled with the experience. This was our first time planning an event of this scale, so we weren’t sure what to expect from vendors. From our initial call to finalizing the details and throughout the big day, every step exceeded our expectations: 20/10 across the board! Not only did we get an incredible DJ, but we also gained a wonderful person to share in our celebration. While we hope we won’t need another wedding DJ anytime soon (haha), Willis J Entertainment would be my first call if we ever did. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone in the Durham area and beyond!

Look no further for greatness

If you are looking for a phenomenal DJ, you've found one! All of the amazing reviews here are accurate. We knew that having a great DJ was extremely important when it came to ensuring the vibes of our wedding were great, and Willis truly delivered! The vibes at our wedding from start to finish were immaculate. He listened to what we wanted and ran with that in the best way. I caught so many people that have said the words "I don't dance" out on the dance floor having a great time. Willis was able to read the room and somehow give everyone what they wanted to hear. The dance floor was never empty, and I don't believe there are many DJs out there that can make that happen. We have absolutely no regrets going with Willis for our special day and cannot recommend him enough!

The Best DJs in NC!

We’re so glad we met Willis J Entertainment during an Open House event at our venue. After chatting with them, we knew we wanted to book them for our special day—they are incredible to work with!

We had Darnell as our DJ for the evening and it was an absolute BLAST. Darnell is so talented and made sure to meet with us ahead of wedding day to go over song selections, up lights, timings, etc. He had EVERYONE on the dance floor, including my 90 year old great Aunt Mary and our Flower Girl & Ring Bearer. The littles said it was “THE BEST PARTY EVER”! They don’t see birthday parties with bouncy castles or at trampoline parks the same anymore—LOL. From conga lines to classics and everything in-between, Darnell carried & created the vibe throughout the entire night.

If you’re looking for DJs that are professional, easy to have a conversation with, take the time to get to know you and play the best bops with smooth transitions, we highly recommend Willis J Entertainment! We couldn’t have imagined our big day without them and Darnell!

Amzing DJ! Willis knows what the people want!

DJ Willis really impressed us with his passion for making our wedding the absolute best. He listened to what we wanted and delivered 10 fold. I gave him a unique task of playing theme music for each table when it was their time to go to the buffet, and he nailed it! Everyone loved it! I appreciate the music portal he uses for us to make requests and send links to friends for them to make requests in advance, so helpful and really made our frineds feel they were part of the magic. Our dance floor was hoppin from open to close! I will forever be reminded of memories of my wedding when I hear specific songs thanks to Willis and his unique style. Thank you DJ Willis!

Dance all night with Willis J. Entertainment (+ the best for a multicultural music experience)!

Willis J. Entertainment is the best! We had DJs Eric and Mike for our wedding. From the very beginning of our reception, they brought an energy and excitement that inspired even the shyest of our guests to dance. Our group was a challenge, with varying music tastes and backgrounds, but Eric and Mike were wonderful at bridging the gap between language, culture, and music. We had guests from Mexico, Iceland, and across the U.S.––and nearly everyone was on the dance floor, the music Eric and Mike played their universal language for the evening. I greatly appreciated how thoughtfully Eric and Mike mixed in the songs they played in Spanish with the ones they played in English, newer songs with classics. Their handle on momentum and expert curation had our family and friends dancing all night. The music was never too deafening and the sound was always clear. Eric and Mike gave us the perfect soundtrack to a very special day. Our family is still talking about Willis J. Entertainment, how they wish they could go back in time and dance some more!

Willis is by far THE BEST DJ! Look no further - he is a legend!

Willis was above and beyond the best DJ, emcee, and friend we could ask for! He was SO much fun to work with, from the very first call to the very end of our reception - he made the experience smooth and enjoyable for my husband and I. He made sure our evening was the best fusion between the two cultures my husband and I represent and there was not one song he played that was not a hit. The whole night he was so attentive, energetic, authentic and just a joy to be with! Every single guest was so impressed and thankful for him. Willis we love and thank you!

Best DJ in town, highly recommend!

DJ Willis was absolutely phenomenal in all regards! He was easy to work with and quick to respond to all our questions. An incredibly experienced DJ, he will take as little or as much input as you want into song choices and tactfully reads the room to play banger after banger at just the right time. He's also just a chill guy and was great to chat and bond with over our mutual love of music. Highly recommend, you won't go wrong with Willis!

Willis was absolutely amazing as our wedding DJ. He is so communicative throughout the process, very professional, and super friendly! So many of our guests raved about Willis & his music selection and we could not be happier. We even had guests who aren't big dancers on the dance floor! I highly recommend working with him! Thank you for everything, Willis!

Greatest Wedding DJ You Could Ever Ask For!!!

We recently had Willis DJ our wedding reception and could not have asked for a more incredible experience!! He met with us a couple months before the wedding to get to know us and was so incredibly friendly and professional. He made us feel so at ease and made the process of getting all of our music submitted very easy. The day of the wedding he was the perfect emcee, transitioning smoothly between different parts of the agenda, staying on time and on track, and keeping the energy going throughout the evening. After dinner we had scheduled for there to be 3 - 4 hours of dancing and were worried about keeping people engaged the whole time, but with Willis that was never an issue! We had multiple people comment on how amazed they were that the dance floor stayed full the entire night and that it was the most fun they'd had at a wedding in years. We cannot recommend Willis and his team enough and would wholeheartedly recommend them to make your special day perfect!

The Music Lasted Longer Than The Marriage!

So, my marriage ended in March 2022, but you know what didn't?!! My love for Willis J Entertainment! This team absolutely rocked my wedding! Literally, right now, I'm jamming out to a playlist inspired by their set, and it's bringing back all the good vibes... no regrets lol

These DJs were the real MVPs of the whole event. They had everyone on the dance floor – even Grandma was busting out moves we didn't know she had! If you want your wedding to be the party of the century, these are your guys.

10/10 would recommend. Seriously, forget putting your spouse in your will, put Willis and his team in there instead. Thanks to them, the music and good vibes lasted way longer than the marriage!

Made everything FUN!!

Darnell with Willisjentertainment was an essential part of our day being a success! We had an outdoor ceremony and he provided sound and music for that. Often the sound can be a distraction at an outdoor ceremony. He did an amazing job and everyone was able to hear. At the reception everything was so smooth and professional. The dance floor was busy all night long and we never had problems getting people to join in! One of the best nights in the memories of our family!

The best party!!

Willis made our wedding day the most incredible party we’ve ever been to, which was ultimately our goal! The ceremony was beautiful and the music was timed perfectly. More importantly, the reception was a hit for us and all our guests! Everyone had a great time and a month later is still telling us how much fun they had, all thanks to Willis! We had a few song requests but left it mostly up to him and he knew exactly what to play and when. We wouldn’t have wanted any other DJ!

The Time of Our Lives!

When my husband came home and told me he'd spent hours talking music with Willis, I knew we'd made the perfect choice. He is professional, fun, detail oriented, and a genuinely awesome person. Willis was happy to cut together music for our movie montage first dance. He worked out the timing of the song we used to walk down the aisle. He was able to craft a playlist order that felt uniquely "us". I can't tell you how many people complimented the music throughout the evening. If you want to put together a great team for your special day, then make sure Willis is on it!

Willis is downright awesome! He brought the best energy on wedding night, and was great to work with throughout the entire planning process. He helped us make music mixes for our dances, and overall was so responsive and a real professional. I would hire Willis over and over!

Professional and Versatile!

CJ from Willis J Entertainment was absolutely amazing. He was the director of our ceremony that night and did an absolutely fabulous job. He kept a smile on everyone's faces and kept our feet moving through the night. Anything we needed, whether it was a small or a big change. He was on point and ready for everything. I can't thank CJ and Willis J Entertainment enough for blessing my ceremony. Thank you so much.

The man, the myth, the GOAT!!

I could write a thousand 5 star reviews for DJ Willis and it still wouldn’t be enough! This man came and delivered everything we could have ever wanted. From the first phone call, to the months of planning, to the day of our wedding, Willis went above and beyond. I’ve had SO many compliment his music selection…and also a few complaints of sore feet and legs from all the dancing lol!! We cannot recommend Willis and his team enough. If you’re looking to throw an absolute BANGER of a reception…DJ Willis is your guy. Thank you so much for everything!!

10/10! Great experience

DJ Willis was awesome to work with!! We had a pretty simple wedding but Willis made sure everything went smoothly and definitely exceeded our expectations. Leading up to the wedding he took time to get a feel for what we wanted & what we didn’t. Everyone had a blast on the dance floor and we would absolutely work with him again!

Fantastic DJ & incredible guy!

Willis provided the most complementary music for our wedding at The Meadows in Raleigh and played all the right things! He makes the process super easy with a portal where you can put in specific songs for specific activities, list ones he should not play(!), and provided suggestions when we just didn't know exactly what we needed. Willis was very aware of maintaining an appropriate volume level and really kept everyone moving the whole night! Highly recommend :D

Uplighting pro + great to work with!

Willis provided uplighting for my wedding and was great to work with! I didn't know how many individual uplights I would need in the space, but Willis had experience working at the venue and let me know I didn't need as many as I originally thought I might, saving me money and earning my absolute trust! The lights looked great and truly made the ambiance after the sun went down. I HIGHLY recommend working with Willis and definitely recommend adding in the uplighting package if you are booking him as a DJ :)

I would highly recommend DJ Willis Entertainment!

Great Dance Floor Energy

One of the biggest comments we had at the wedding was how much fun the dance floor was! I give all the credit to Chance the DJ for keeping the party going. If you’re looking for a fun wedding people will remember, book Chance!

Book with Willis! Your guests won’t leave the dance floor!

DJ Willis went above and beyond for our wedding at the Museum of Life and Science! He is not only a phenomenal DJ but also an amazing person. From the very start, we knew we were in great hands. He took the time to get know us as a couple and to understand what we wanted out of our DJ experience. From the ceremony music to cocktail hour to the dance floor, the music was executed flawlessly, and he set an incredible vibe. Our guests didn’t want to leave the dance floor because the music was that good. His prices are incredibly reasonable, and he exceeded all of our expectations. Do yourself a big favor and book with Willis!

DJ Willis was amazing and we had so much fun with him! We decided to go with Willis Entertainment because of how personable Willis was and how easy it was to work with him. He kept our guests on the dance floor and all of our guests had a blast. We highly recommend hiring DJ Willis if you want a big dance party for your wedding!

DJ Willis is amazing! Hire him! He made our wedding day absolutely amazing, even playing some hype up music while my bridesmaids and I were taking our pictures before the ceremony. He helped calm my nerves and does his job flawlessly. You can’t go wrong with him on your special day and events. If we have any future events and need a DJ, I will not hesitate to call him up! Don’t wait on him, call him!

Amazing Songs from Start to Finish!!

Willis and Chance, our DJ for the night, absolutely nailed it!!! We had requested specific vibes for each portion of the night - Sinatra type songs for dinner, etc - and Chance was spot on!! People were on the dance floor all evening long, and when they complimented our playlist, we repeatedly told them it was all Chance. I would absolutely recommend Willis and his team to anyone who is considering them!!

We can’t put into words how thankful we are that we had DJ Willis at our wedding! His communication leading up to our event was stellar. He came on time, prepared, and most importantly with a heart of service. His portal made entering our song requests simple and then he mixed them perfectly during the reception. I promise, hiring DJ Willis for your event will be the best decision you’ll make!

Never missed a beat!

Willis was an awesome DJ all around. He was so laidback and friendly, yet on top of everything too! His web portal made it easy to organize songs and input requests, he walked us through every detail of the wedding day so we felt confident and prepared, and he's just a joy to talk to in general. We wanted someone who could gas up our crowd and make it feel like a memorable party, and that's just what we got!

We cant say enough wonderful things about DJ Willis Entertainment. We had vision for our entire wedding and he made that vision come to life . From the ceremony to the dancing it was exactly what we dreamed of. In addition, the communication was top notch from the day we decided to book til the moment we walked down the aisle. If you are looking for a personable DJ experience, look no further!

Dr Willis is the man. Amazing DJ

We hired DJ willis and it was one of the best decisions of our wedding day! He was so easy to work with on the front end. He was very flexible in finding times to chat considering my wife and I both work during the day. He was able to find that perfect balance of playing the songs that we wanted while also playing songs that we didn't think about but LOVED. He got older family members to dance who haven't busted a move in decades. and our friends were losing their minds to the music. DJ Willis is the go to for your wedding. Couldn't recommend him any higher

Fantastic experience! Hire Willis for your event!

DJ Willis was an absolute joy to work with. We booked Willis for our wedding (03/05/22) and within the first few minutes of our first meeting we knew he was our DJ! We could tell the vibes and energy were going to work well for our personalities and knew that he would get the job done. It almost felt like he was a trusted friend even though we just met him, and on Zoom at that. With every meeting we had with Willis, we felt very secure and had no worries about how the day was going to run. Some people don’t realize a good DJ will help with keeping the day and evening running smoothly, and that’s what Willis did! Willis kept to all the requested time-stamped items for the ceremony (that involved cultural music throughout) and also for the reception (first dances, music throughout dinner, and speeches). And most importantly, he kept the party going. Although we gave Willis a list of ‘must plays’ we fully trusted him to read the room and play music that best fit the energy. We barely saw the dance floor empty! We were so appreciative of his time, effort, and positive energy throughout the day and into the night. Even almost 6 months after our wedding, several family members still rave about Willis!

Words Don’t Do It Justice

We just wanna echo that Willis is PHENOMENAL DJ, but beyond that he is such an incredible person. Not every DJ will take the time to get to know their couple before their big day and that put us at ease. He was super helpful with our music selection. The portal that made planning so easy and stress free! Willis can read the crowd and get everyone out of their chairs to dance. We were shocked to see some of our elders on the dance floor. He was the real MVP of our big day and because of him we were able to have the wedding the have always dream of. This was the best gift that anyone could ever given us, so thank you Willis!

Our wedding planners recommended Willis as our DJ and we couldn't be happier that they did. He was professional, organized, arrived early, and most importantly, helped ensure that we had the best night of our lives. We cannot recommend Willis highly enough - there is no better DJ for your upcoming wedding or event.

Thanks for everything Willis!

Words cannot express our appreciation for Willis

Words cannot express, but I will try. Willis was simply the best. From the moment we met him to the wedding day. He always made us feel less stressed. He was easy going, but also professional. He did all of our song requests and did everything he needed to do to keep people entertained and dancing all night. He worked with all other vendors spectacularly and just made our reception perfect. He never felt like a stranger to us and now we love that we know him. Great DJ. Great man. All the thanks and love to Willis. Check him out on Instagram as he posts regularly.

Made our wedding day above and beyond amazing!

Willis is an amazing person and DJ! He is so friendly, accommodating, and was always happy to answer my (many) questions! He met up with us beforehand to grab coffee--we thought we were going to talk wedding, but he just wanted to get to know us as people and learn our story. Willis really put our minds at ease that everything was going to be A-okay on our wedding day. And it was! He really helped our day flow perfectly, was great at moving the party along, and ensured that everyone had a great time! Also, bonus points: I had a particular section of a particular song picked for my walk down the aisle, and there's a fanfare section--I'd asked if he could try to time it so that the main fanfare hit right as I got to the altar. Well, he hit it right on target. The timing could not have been more perfect--so much so that my nervous self turned around and gave him a thumbs up at the beginning of the ceremony! :) But really, thank you so much Willis for helping make our day so special!

Willis was awesome, and our wedding would not have gone off so well without him. He had seamless transitions and was able to pick up on our vibe just from zoom meetings and phone calls. We would hire Willis again in a heartbeat. He was so professional and willing to make our bridal party entrance vision happen.

DJ Darnell for the WIN

We hired DJ Darnell for our wedding back in March, and he crushed it! Attaching photos so you could see how silly everyone got. Darnell did a great job of keeping the energy up and it was a blast. We have had a few weddings for friends that we attended, and everyone keeps saying our DJ was the best. Darnell is also DJing for a friends wedding in November so we are excited to hang with him again!

Willis - Fantastic Wedding DJ

Willis was great during our entire wedding process. He had great communication with us months before our event, very personable and professional and we loved his overall vibe. As we moved closer to the event he had great attention to detail for all of the specifics of both our ceremony and reception requests. On the day of he was on point with everything, the ceremony music flowed perfectly, the reception was an absolute blast with Willis leading the way with the energy he brings. On a day that consists of so much chaos, Willis gave us a ton of stability and assurance that all of the music/entertainment would be taken care of and he did a fantastic job with that. I would highly recommend.

We hired Willis J Entertainment for our wedding reception and DJ Darnell was absolutely wonderful. He was great at reading the crowd, knowing what to play to get people dancing and kept the energy up! He was easy to get in touch with throughout the planning process and made me feel at ease when we first met in person. They work with our venue regularly which made the process streamlined and effortless for us. I would highly recommend DJ Willis and his team!

Willis was fantastic! He kept the dance floor busy all night and did such a wonderful job hosting the evening without needing to be the star of the show. I loved how we met with him in person in advance too so he could really get to know us and we could talk through our hopes for the day.

Willis Understood The Assignment

When the future Mrs. and I met with Willis we clicked instantly. Willis has a great personality and energy and we were happy to move forward.

Willis met with us to get an understanding of what we were looking for music wise. Three months later and our guests are still saying Willis absolutely crushed the music the entire evening. At one point I’m fairly certain 90% of our wedding party was dancing.

Willis is a must hire.

Our Favorite DJ

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Willis at a few weddings and consider him to also be a friend. So when it came to choosing a DJ for my wedding, there was no choice other than Willis J Entertainment. And he did not disappoint! He brought the fun and had all of our guests out of their seats dancing the entire night. He’s not just a great DJ, he’s an amazing emcee and all around great person. If you’re looking for entertainment at your wedding, I highly recommend Willis J Entertainment!

Incredible DJ and human being

We had the best experience with Willis for our wedding. From the first call, we hit it off and I felt sure, without any need to shop around, that Willis was THE GUY. I let him know that I can be a little psychotic about music but that I really trust his craft. He has his own portal, y’all! I mean I started adding songs a year out so I could get a head start. It was so easy to go in and keep updating okay throughout the planning process. I loved the easy playlist with recommendations for weddings, that really helped me out. Willis is so cool and we got to spend time with him in person which was awesome. We all really connected and I would go to him for recommendations regarding other parts of the wedding. I really trust him so much as a vendor and he was super reassuring. The actual wedding was so amazing, he directs the whole show basically and just nailed our vision. Everyone loved him and we MAY have got him to dance with us… that’s a personal win! We hope to have an ongoing friendship with Willis and we will recommend him to everyone within earshot. What a freaking great TIME he brings, my dad even tied his tie around his head and was having a blast to his music. It’s all about his energy and it’s contagious!! I never left the dance floor. Thank you, Willis!

11/10 Experience with Willis

Willis was all we could have hoped for and more. My husband and I came to Willis with a mixed bag - we wanted 1920s-40s jazz for the first half of our wedding and music for a rager for the second half (throwbacks, pop/hip hop, typical wedding songs). Willis met with us beforehand to make sure he understood the assignment and let me tell ya, he understood it. The whole night was seamless. Willis was professional, timely with communications, and super personable. We heard from several of our guests that they thought Willis did an amazing job. 11/10 would recommend Willis to anyone.

Best DJ and Emcee

DJ Willis was a pleasure to work with. He is so easy to talk to and personable. His website was easy to use as far as making a timeline and organizing songs (must play, do not play, etc.) Once the ceremony was over, he had my husband and I hyped up and dancing all night! Not only was he an amazing DJ and emcee, he is a great person. I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Best dj ever!

When looking for a DJ we interviewed probably 10 different vendors and both my husband and I knew that Willis was the DJ for us because he set the bar HIGH!! The other DJs didn’t even compare to Willis! He’s incredibly responsive, personable, and his music portal makes requests SUPER easy. The day of the wedding Willis made sure our very specific versions of songs were played, worked with our day of coordinator to make sure all activities were announced on time (cake cutting, etc.), had reliable equipment and mics that didn’t cut out at all, and kept the dance floor packed! On top of him being a great DJ that is very organized and on top of every small request you might have, Willis is one of the best human beings you will ever meet. Willis genuinely cares about his couples outside of “wedding life” and we’ve actually become great friends with him since we found him on WeddingWire. When we were looking for a DJ we never thought we’d find a lifelong friend too, but we are so happy we did!! We’re looking forward to many more years of friendship with Willis! HIRE HIM NOW!!

Thank you willis!

Willis was a wonderful DJ and our day could not have gone as smoothly without him. We were able to meet with Willis and have a lovely dinner to talk details before, and he felt more like a friend than our vendor. He has been so flexible as we rescheduled, is attentive to the bride and grooms needs, and makes sure that your schedule is going on schedule. When it came to the dancing, he made a first dance mix of 3 songs for my dad and I’s dance. My dad was blown away with this. Once the dance floor was open, we had almost 4 hours of nonstop dance and there was no stopping us (besides a town noise ordinance that stopped the party at 11). He knows his music and how to read the room. Our DJ was very important for our reception and I would recommend willis to anyone looking for a DJ. Thank you again!

Absolutely Amazing DJ! Definitely Recommend!

To Willis and Viewers Reading This,

It took us a month to write this review because there was so much magic and fun that happened on our wedding night that we struggled where to start. Willis was above and beyond charismatic and flexible with our schedule. He played our favorite music and if he couldn’t find a particular piece, he made it his mission to acquire it. He also is very communicative and provided insight in the wedding process and how to thread certain songs into our wedding program. He managed to keep the night bumping, and our friends and family continue to share how fun and engaging the music was til this day. We are fortunate to have connected with Willis and believe you will be too.

The best of the best

DJ Willis is THE BEST. If you are seeking a DJ, look no further. From day one, Willis was the only DJ we were willing to have bring our wedding reception party to life. I can say with confidence that our wedding was the best day of my life, and we credit Willis with bringing the fun and the energy to what instantly became the best night of our lives. Willis made us feel comfortable and totally relaxed, and knowing we could trust him to bring our “vibe” and vision to the celebration allowed us to completely be in the moment. When we had to reschedule our wedding for a full year due to the pandemic, he was encouraging, positive, and accommodating of the change. Leading up to the wedding Willis was flexible and communicative, working with us out-of-staters to set up Zoom and phone calls to ensure all details were ironed out before the big day. The online client planning portal made it super easy to communicate all of our song choices for the big moments and request “must-plays” (and even “do not play” songs). Willis also reassured us that we didn’t have to plan out every single music choice - he took careful note of the kind of music we like and the overall feel of the wedding and the end result was a perfect reception. Prior to the wedding we shared with him that we listen to a lot of late 90s/early 2000s hip-hop, and Willis took our words to heart and created a killer dance party. Willis was fantastic at reading the energy of the crowd and seamlessly mixing in a variety of music that kept the party flowing. Our day-of coordinator told me that more people danced at our reception than at any other wedding she’d seen at our venue - every single person was on the dance floor! Our guests and our vendors raved about Willis, and our friends and family continue to tell me how much of a great time they had. Willis is genuine, positive, and an expert through and through at what he does. He was an absolute pleasure and a joy to work with and our reception could not have been more perfect, thanks to him. We cannot recommend him highly enough!

We Love Willis!

Our venue owner (shout out Windy Hill Farm!) suggested we reach out to Willis and from our first phone call, we knew that he was the right person to facilitate our party! He was incredibly accommodating with our pandemic-related reschedule and helped us feel confident in the decisions we made. When we met with him in person, we instantly felt comfortable and so glad we had booked him. He's incredibly warm, laid-back, fun, and he prioritizes bringing our vision to life. The dance party at our wedding lasted over three hours, and we had the most fun night of our lives. Our guests raved about him! He played the songs we requested (and had an easy way to request "must plays" as well as "DO NOT PLAY"), along with some fun surprises and was open to requests which our guests loved. He started the dancing with my parents' favorite song, which made them feel so special. I should also note that his set-up and professionalism allowed us to feel in such good hands. We never worried for a minute about anything sound or reception related - he made it so easy! I could write a novel about how much we love Willis. (Side note - we are scheming for my husband and him to form a trivia team based on their shared encyclopedic knowledge of movies and music.) We recommend him 100000% percent! Thank you Willis!!!!

Dream Team!!

You need him on your wedding day! Working with him was like working with your best friend. He made everything so easy and he is truly great at what he does. I barely left the dance floor the whole night because just when I thought it couldn't get any better he would play another one of my jams! So grateful he was part of my wedding dream team! Thank you Thank you Thank you!

Chance… AWESOME

We had a last minute cancellation with our original DI and reached out to Willis about 2 months ahead of our date. He scheduled DJ Chance to work our wedding, and we now know that was fate. Chance was AWESOME! He played every song we requested, read the room and kept the right music going at the right time. We had a myriad of 80s, country, rap, etc, and he kept us right on par! I also loved his enthusiasm in introductions and/or announcements. He was very genuine and authentic and not scripted- we LOVED him! 10/10 would recommend.

Stress-free experience with plenty of party!

Willis was a HUGE part of making our day run so smoothly. From the beginning he was super clear about all the services he could offer and helping us decide what was best for us- he didn't try to upsell anything more than what we needed to have a good time, worked with our budget, and is so charismatic and easy going that he put both of us at ease about the whole day. He has an easy to use planning website that let us fill in all the "must play" songs and significant songs like first dance, recessional, cocktail hour music, etc, but he also made sure we knew that we didn't have to plan out every single song- at the wedding he was so good at reading the crowd, playing a variety of music that pleased everyone but still flowed from one song to the next, and everyone said he was hilarious and made the whole party so much more fun. By far the biggest thing for me was that I never had to worry about any of it because he worked so seamlessly with our planner and venue and had everything set up and running perfectly. I was able to sit back and enjoy everything because Willis did such a fantastic job keeping the party going despite it being a TUESDAY NIGHT!

Willis J Entertainment is THE Best!

Where do I begin?! DJ Willis is THE best. I have worked with Willis for years in a professional capacity and have always been impressed so I knew from the start he was my top choice to DJ my wedding last weekend.
Willis is more than a DJ, he is truly an artist. He reads the crowd, the event space and puts together music that perfectly fits the vibe at any given moment. He is personable & hilarious but also sincere & reverent when called for.
He masterfully walks the line of being involved & making the party come to life, while not being overbearing or putting himself in the spotlight.
My wedding ceremony & reception would not have been such a seamless, beautiful, incredible party without Willis.
Even these words do not do him justice. I truly cannot praise Willis J Entertainment highly enough!

The Best Choice

DJ Willis did an incredible job at our wedding! He is much more than just a DJ, he puts so much thought and effort into his craft and he’s just a straight up great human being :) He was immensely helpful in the logistics and planning and at the same time was laid back to where no extra stress was added! I highly recommend him for anyone getting married soon or just anyone who wants a great DJ at their function!

Incredible DJ, super friendly, professional, and affordable -- 10/10!

We were SO THRILLED that we chose Willis to DJ our wedding at The Fearrington. He was super friendly and communicative, and brought a nice, calming presence to the planning process.

As one of many couples whose original wedding date was affected by the pandemic, we were really grateful that Willis was willing to work with us to move the original date.

The planning process was a breeze. Willis met with us twice virtually and walked us through an easy online planning tool we used to input information about the wedding and our song requests.

During and after the wedding, we got a lot of comments from guests asking who our DJ was and remarking that he did such a great job keeping the dance floor moving. Willis struck a nice balance between clearly communicating with guests and emceeing throughout the night without adding in way too much extra commentary. He also easily accommodated our extra requests, like the audio equipment we needed for the ceremony and toasts.

To top it all off, we found Willis's pricing to be a lot better than some of the other DJ services in the area. His services were more affordable but just as (if not more!) professional and high quality as comparable DJ companies in the Triangle. Plus, he's just a nice, fun guy. We HIGHLY recommend that you hire Willis to DJ your wedding or other special event!!!

DJ Willis is Phenomenal!

DJ Willis is a phenomenal DJ and made our wedding so much fun. His positive attitude is infectious and he is an absolute pleasure to work with during the planning process. We were very lucky with all of our wedding vendors, but DJ Willis was hands down our favorite. He knew exactly what to play to keep the dance floor going all night. Even though my wife and I forgot to select a "last song", DJ Willis picked up on some off-handed remarks during the planning process as well as some Taylor Swift references during the maid of honor speech to end the night with Love Story. It couldn't have been more perfect. It's this kind of thoughtfulness and attention to detail that you are getting when you hire DJ Willis.

DJ Willis Was The LIFE Of Our Wedding and Reception!

DJ Willis is both a wonderful human being and a talented DJ. I called him to discuss hiring him for our wedding and loved his personality so much that I asked to sign a contract that day. He is friendly, outgoing, incredibly kind, and just a lot of fun to interact with.

We live out of town, but had several Zoom meetings with him. He stepped us through logistics, and thought of every single thing we could possibly need on our big day. When I met him in person for the first time shortly after our ceremony, I knew I had made the right decision. This man genuinely loves doing his job, and you can tell by the huge smile on his face. Several of our guests commented on how great he was, and he was able to read the room and play the right music so perfectly. I honestly can't thank him enough for making our wedding so special.

Willis J Entertainment's reply:

Sarah!! This review is absolutely amazing and I can't thank you enough ❤. Was a beautiful ceremony and the reception was ridiculously fun! Thank you so much my friend!😁

It was a pleasure to work with Willis J Entertainment to make my wedding music dreams come true! Willis was very professional with every single detail. Willis was not available for the date of my wedding, but we had the wonderful DJ Darnell! He was AWESOME! He was so easy to work with and truly made our wedding amazing. The music was perfect throughout the night and he really delivered on all our song requests.

Thank you SO much, Darnell and Willis!!! Y’all are amazing!

March 20, 2021 wedding

We loved having Chance dj at our wedding! This group came through and saved us after our first dj cancelled on us pretty close to the wedding and we’re so happy our planner suggested them! The entire group at the wedding was Dancing nonstop on the dance floor the entire night. This was exactly what we told the DJ that we wanted when we booked them. It meant so much for us that everybody had a fantastic time and everyone that was a guest at our wedding have had nothing but great things to say!

We hired Willis J Entertainment for our January 2021 wedding. Willis was AMAZING! He is kind, funny, and professional - which made for an awesome personality behind the music of our special day! He has this great online portal to help collaborate the timeline of event and music. We had so many guests compliment us on the DH. I highly recommend him!

hands down best dj ever

very professional! helped our wedding roll along seamlessly. He was super prepared and had mics for us to use for our vows and even a lapel mic for our officiant. The website we used to choose all of our songs was extremely easy to navigate. My dad came up to him an hour before the wedding and had songs he wanted to incorporate in his speech and willis was ready! He met with us before because he wanted to get to know us better. Honestly we knew he was the guy from the first phone call! My feet hurt from dancing all night!

Willis was amazing right from the start. Very responsive and flexible. His website makes putting all your timeline and music needs simple and fun. When we met him it just cemented our decision to go with him. Our wedding day ran smoothly in large part to him and we're so grateful we found him. He kept the crowd going and played all our favorite music including a little metal mix which we love! Outstanding value and you won't find another genuine and attentive DJ like him. Hire him now!

So fun!!!!!!

As soon as we met Willis, we knew he would make our reception the fun party we hoped for. He's super easy-going and ready to take on whatever you want. We met with him a few times before the wedding to make sure all of his and our questions were answered. His website for choosing songs is awesome and if he doesn't have what you want, he'll get it! Our day was a blast! The music was so fun, our families loved that he played their requests and he got in all of our favorites too. I'm so happy we had Willis at our wedding - he helped make it a perfect day!

100% Recommend!!!

Hiring a great DJ was at the top of our wedding to do list! Willis J Entertainment DID NOT let us down! Chance was AWESOME! He kept the party going, and knew how to keep people on the dance floor. Chance even accommodated our specific music request (I had Chance make a mix for my musical chair bouquet toss, he helped me pull a little musical prank at the ceremony, and my Husband had a special mix made for his mother/son dance). HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend!!

Willis J Entertainment's reply:

Thank you guys for this! great review! The minute everything was over, Chance was raving about how much fun it was! :-).
