My favorite part of the wedding is the reception and having a one of these Raleigh DJs on the music for your wedding reception is a surefire way to get your people on the dance floor!
Nothing is sadder than an empty dance floor, especially if the couple would prefer people dancing. Experienced DJs in Raleigh know all the right ways to get your guests moving. Once they start the party, it won’t stop until you want it to (or the venue says it’s time).
Before we get the list of the best DJs, another question to answer:
Lighting from your Raleigh DJs? Worth it?
Do you want colorful wedding photos and a lovely ambiance at your reception? Then yes, investing in colorful uplighting is completely worth it. Special lighting is how we can get the super energetic, colorful dance floor images so many of our couples love. I believe everyone I’ve listed below offers lighting packages as well, and some venues even offer it now, so go for it!
All Around Raleigh DJ
Eric is one of the most welcoming people I’ve met in the industry. He has a way of making everyone feel like they are his top priority. He’s also got a good eye for hiring and managing a team so you can’t really go wrong with an All Around Raleigh DJ working your wedding.
Bunn DJ Company – DJs in Raleigh and beyond
Joe Bunn might be the name you hear most when asking for Raleigh DJs. That’s not Joe above though, that’s Mark McNally. The Bunn team is a veritable army of incredible DJs in Raleigh and several other cities. We haven’t had the opportunity to work with everyone at Bunn DJ Co, but the ones we have always make sure the dance floor is going all night!
DJ Ones
When your DJ manages to get this many people on your dance floor for a photo at the VERY END of a looooooong night, you know those people were having a great time. Founder Erick is the best and one of my favorite things about his team are the women. DJ-ing is a pretty male dominated industry, so it makes me happy to see a badass woman like Ava below spinning at a wedding.
JD Silverthorne
I love JD because he loves 90s music and that means he is a good person. I don’t make the rules! We haven’t had the opportunity to work together that often, but I am definitely hoping that changes!
McSound Productions
Brian was the DJ at my and John’s wedding a decade ago! He’s so great to work with, and knows how to read the room better than just about anyone. He can get every guest from the ring bearer to grandma on the floor. Bonus: he loves Carolina Basketball almost as much as I do!
SPIN Entertainment – Raleigh DJs
Something that sets the SPIN DJs apart is their style. These guys are just cool. You know what I mean? Like velvet loafers, blazers that no one else could pull off, always at ease kind of cool. They’re also obviously professional and really good at their jobs (they wouldn’t be on this list if that weren’t the case), but cool is the icing on the cake.
Stylus Weddings SE
Nerdy Kivus & Camera couples, listen up! Jason and I first bonded talking Star Wars and this guy knows his stuff. And not just Star Wars nerd stuff. He really knows DJ stuff, and lighting stuff, and emcee stuff, and photo booth stuff. He’s great at all of it!
