Emily & Mike’s Wedding at Coley Hall at The Libery by Becca’s Pics All Around Raleigh DJ

Admission time! Emily & Mike are two of our very best friends and we are so incredibly lucky to share our passion on their wedding day. Enjoy the photos below from Becca’s Pics who gets a huge shoutout from us for being great to work with and for the beautiful photos of our friends. Emily & Mike’s wedding was … really … fun! Mike’s big moment came during the grand entrance where the bridal and the newlyweds came in 90s Chicago Bulls style. We brought the energy up for the entrance and it stayed upbeat all night. After a few nice toasts and family dances, DJ Brian took over and rocked their wedding reception for hours!

To many more years of friendship and congrats to Emily & Mike!

Sample Wedding Reception DJ Playlist

January 29, 2019

Hi y’all! Here is a sample song list for a common wedding reception playlist. We’ve split the song list into: Dinner/cocktail music, Casual dancing, Slow dances and Late night dance music. This is meant to just give you an idea of what kind of music we would play if I didn’t have input at all from the bride and groom. We never go into a wedding reception with a playlist built before it starts because things change so quickly. That’s really the essence of being a good DJ! It has to be kept fresh and reacting to the crowd. By tweaking a few songs here and there and playing songs in the order that works the crowd, I always get the dance floor packed! We can’t stress enough that every wedding is unique and special. You won’t have much luck just plugging these songs in and hope for the best. GOOD LUCK!

What a Wonderful Preston Woodall House Wedding for Abby & Matt!

November 14, 2018

Abby & Matt’s Wedding at Preston Woodall House by Erin Costa Photography

We met Abby’s mom the February before the wedding and we shared a military and Wisconsin connection with them which always helps to break the ice! The couple decided to keep it simple with no lighting and we think that was the right choice for them and their venue and how they wanted to event to go.

We got to provide music for Abby & Matt for the whole evening including their ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. They chose Vitamin String Quartet style music for their wedding with A Thousand Years by Paul Hankinson as her entrance song. For the cocktail hour we played acoustic music while the guests had light drinks and appetizers which were provided by the excellent catering at Preston Woodall House. After Abby & Matt had their photos taken, we got everyone seated then we introduced the bridal party to ‘Get Down On It’ by Kool and the Gang and Abby & Matt to ‘September’ by Earth, Wind and Fire. It was a super fun entrance! The newlyweds went straight into their first dance which was to ‘You and I’ by John Legend followed by the Father/Daughter and the Mother/Son Dances which were to ‘Anything You Want’ by Roy Orbison and ‘You’re Gonna Live Forever In Me’ by John Mayer respectively. After a very nice welcome and blessing, dinner was served to a mix of “standards” like Sinatra, Buble, Martin, etc. We got the dance floor kicking after some really funny toasts and the cake cutting and it was wide open and fun all night.

Congratulations to Abby & Matt!

Evi & Chris’s Perfect Prestonwood Country Club Wedding in Cary, NC

November 12, 2018

Evi & Chris’s Wedding at Prestonwood Country Club by Bowtie Collaborative

Chris & Evi were married and had their wedding reception at Prestonwood Country Club in Cary, NC and it was A LOT OF FUN! Check out the great shots from Bowtie Collaborative below as well as Evi & Chris’s review of our service, their other wonderful vendors and their timeline. We had such a fun time working with and getting to know these two. We provided them with our uplighting, dance floor lighting, photo booth and ceremony service. You can see how good the lighting looked in the beautiful ballroom at Prestonwood. We kept it a classy candlelight color through dinner and then once dancing started we made it change to the beat of the music and added set up the dance floor lighting too. This was truly one of the most fun and smoothest weddings ever thanks to the hard work of Kathy with Sally Oakley Events. Having a pro like Kathy running the wedding always means it will be more fun because everything runs better! It was really an amazing wedding filled with beauty, fun and celebrating not too much some fun Greek music to celebrate Evi’s culture.

Thanks for letting us celebrate with you and best wishes!

Meg & Jason’s Touch of Greek Wedding at The Cotton Room in Durham, NC

October 3, 2018

Meg & Jason were married and had their wedding reception at The Cotton Room in the fall of 2014. Jason and his family are Greek so of course we had to have some traditional Greek music and dancing! This one started off a little formal but quickly turned into one of the craziest dancing crowds that we have seen. We helped the bride and groom plan everything from Texas via Skype and e-mail where they live today. There was some sort of crazy history of Jason dancing to ‘Billie Jean’ and they told DO NOT play it unless requested by the bride and groom and sure enough at about 11 pm we got the ‘ok’ (photos below!). Thanks for being our clients Meg & Jason and best wishes. We will never forget your wedding!

Here is some of the Greek music that we played:

Aravod – Kalamatiano
Trio Hellenque – Kalamatiano
Michael Hartophilis & His Orcehstara – Kalamatiano
Haralabos Garganourakis – Pentozalis

Meg & Jason’s Vendor Team

Venue: The Cotton Room

One of Durham’s most popular wedding venues and one of our absolute favorites. Just look at this place in the photos below … beautiful and so original.

A Beautiful Wedding at The Cookery for Shannon & Patrick in Durham, NC

September 27, 2018

Shannon & Patrick’s Wedding at The Cookery by Robin Lin Photography

We first met Shannon & Patrick at a bridal show about 16 months before their wedding and got to know them really well leading up to their wedding day. They absolutely loved the history and textures at their amazing wedding venue, The Cookery. We got to provide audio for their ceremony in the courtyard then we fired up the main system for the reception while providing a wireless speaker in the courtyard and cocktail room. Check out Robin Lin Photography‘s great work in the photos below!

They instructed us to “do what we do” and make sure everyone has an amazing time but keep it clean and no hard rap. We introduced them to ‘Can’t Stop the Feeling’ by Justin Timberlake for the bridal party then ‘Happy’ by Pharrell for bride and groom. Shannon & Patrick then had their first dance to ‘Better Place’ by Rachel Platten. The Father/Daughter dance song was to ‘Daughters’ by John Mayer and the Mother/Son dance song was ‘Humble and Kind’ by Tim McGraw. Dinner was amazing as always at The Cookery. After the toasts by the best man and the maid of honor we opened up the dance floor. Since, they were such close-knit family focused people, most of the guests were family that had traveled a long ways so we had a super fun celebration on the dance floor from start to finish!

Congratulations and thank you so much Patrick & Shannon!

Eric & Lindsay’s Beauty and the Beast Wedding at Barclay Villa in Angier, NC

February 15, 2018

Eric & Lindsay’s Wedding Thank you to Amy Allen Photography from All Around Raleigh Wedding DJ

Lindsay & Eric were married at ‘The Castle’ known as Barclay Villa in Angier, NC just before Christmas. This was a very romantic, authentic and FUN wedding! The bride and groom are two of the nicest people that we have had the honor of working with and it was a lot of fun to provide some Beauty & the Beast inspired music as well as some other classics to set the mood for the evening. The crazy thing was that no one involved with the wedding has any local ties. They wanted a castle for their wedding and low and behold they stumbled upon Barclay Villa while searching the internet. We were lucky enough to be a part of a great vendor team that really worked hard to make these out of towners feel welcome and make their wedding perfect. This was a very special wedding to be a part of.

Check out the vendor team for Lindsay & Eric’s wedding!
