Elegant Soiree Wedding DJs & Photobooths provided top-notch services to perfection for our wedding day. Extremely trustworthy, punctual, great at their job, and just great people overall on a personality level. We got married in Charlotte NC but Victor and his team are willing to travel to be part of your special day. It was a super hot summer day and we had him move to 4 locations for ceremony, cocktail hour, second ceremony, and reception (only indoor spot), and there was no lapse in music playing or delays. He conquered a tough challenge with that! Victor is extremely flexible to where the guest can create the entire playlist to their desire, or have no part in it and just relax and coast and let Victor do the work! The Photobooth addition is an absolute must-add, and really added another dimension for wedding guests, at an affordable price! We are so grateful that Elegant Soiree Wedding DJs & Photobooths were part of our special day.

Diana and Robby, Owners of A Bride’s DJ, feel especially qualified because they both like to celebrate more than the average human. Robby is willing to wear a costume for any reason. Having a themed event? He has dressed up & made announcements like a pirate. Arrr! We have a small team of DJs who have each performed at 100 to 1500 weddings. Our DJs extensive experience & training ensures a smooth planning experience for clients, excelling in communication, are ego-free (so you get what YOU want), detail-oriented, and most importantly…they actually mix the music.

DJ Tony and A Bride’s DJ was beyond what we could ever ask for our wedding day. From the very beginning, both Diana and DJ Tony were attentive, understanding, and incredibly responsive to our music preferences and vision for the reception. (Btw, they are so kind and thoughtful which really made a difference throughout our whole wedding planning and wedding day.) We cared a lot about music and we had particular preferences even though we didn’t have any specific songs in mind. We told DJ Tony what music style we generally liked and the age range of our guests. His mixing skills and how he transitions between songs is just incredible. From day 1, we trusted his skills and was comfortable telling him about our vision. We can tell DJ Tony loves music. If we told him we wanted a LOTR themed wedding I know he’d pull off the best party. His curated playlist, talented mixing skills and DJing created an unforgettable party atmosphere that our guests raved about - they said it was even more fun than any club or party they'd been to! The energy and music were truly top-tier, making our wedding the best celebration beyond what we’d imagine. We are so grateful to DJ Tony, Diana, and A Bride's DJ for helping make our whole wedding experience truly incredible.

So, I came to Ryan through rec from a friend with very good taste. She told me he was great at creating a vibe, and that was all I needed to hear. I didn’t look into anyone else once Ryan let me know he had my date open. He sends out a pretty comprehensive questionnaire to get a feel for what you want, and he 100% delivers on it. Our wedding was pretty low-key (no official organizer) and Ryan was chill about making announcements, etc. when we checked in with him in the moment. Should I ever need a DJ again, I’ll absolutely hit him up. If anything, I’d probably just let him have more free reign next time. The man knows what he’s doing.
