Relax, You've Found Your DJ

As a lifelong local of Elizabeth City, NC, I love helping couples celebrate their weddings across the Outer Banks and Hampton Roads. From charming beachfront ceremonies to large venue receptions, my goal is to make your day unforgettable.

With a clean setup, high-quality sound, and a natural sense of timing, I create a smooth flow that keeps your celebration stress-free and full of energy. I take pride in being a family-friendly wedding DJ. From our first conversation to your last dance, I’ll be there to guide the music, coordinate the moments, and bring your vision to life.

Every wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and I treat it that way. I work closely with you to make sure your guests feel welcome, excited, and fully part of the fun. Whether your dream is an intimate beach ceremony or a big reception with everyone on the dance floor, I provide the personal care and attention that make your wedding truly special.

Q&A
 

How would you describe your ‘style’?

I am laid back and easy to work with. I will take your special day seriously though and work as a professional. I take pride in my setup and equipment.  I try to compliment the occasion and not overpower it. I appreciate the fact that YOU are the star and the reason for the event. As an experienced DJ and trained Master of Ceremonies, I am dedicated to creating a memorable experience for you.

 

Can you cover a ceremony as well as cocktail hour and reception?

Yes. I am fully equipped to manage every detail of your wedding, including the ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and more. I offer a variety of polished, professional setups with high-end equipment suitable for both indoor and outdoor events, including beachfront, barn, and tent venues. Additionally, I can accommodate locations that lack nearby power sources.

 

Do you play requests?

Yes, as long as the bride and groom allow it.

 

How much should a DJ cost?

Remember, "you get what you pay for." We all love a good deal, but don't sacrifice quality for cost. Your special day only comes along once in a lifetime. I focus on creating personalized, elegant celebrations rather than simply competing on price. My services emphasize quality and professionalism. My setup is fully equipped to deliver a great experience for your wedding day! 

 

How early should we book our DJ?

As early as possible! Many couples book a year in advance or more. As soon as you set your date and find a venue, lock me in as your DJ to ensure availability!

 

Can we get a price quote?
