“Overall our experience working with DJ David Malachi was absolutely excellent. He was extremely reasonably priced, was more than willing to work with us about setting up payment installments, and the app uses for couples to set up what songs they want to be played at the reception made it overall not only very easy but actually fun to put together something that might’ve been stressful otherwise. David was charming and responsive the entire process of booking and paying. And on the day of, the dance floor was absolutely a party, he did a great job taking certain requests and mixing the songs together while also keeping it pumped up but family friendly! He also went above and beyond to help the timeline be on track during the reception, going out of his way to help call tables and pull a game together of his own making, which got the crowd involved and was so much fun. He was constantly asking me and my husband what we needed and was down to do to be helpful. I would definitely work with him again if given the opportunity!!”

Everyone kept telling me how they never went to such a fun wedding where the entire crowd was dancing from beginning to end but it’s because of him.

“We booked the Signed Sealed Delivered package and Brandon and Kellie exceeded expectations from planning to execution. While they came as a package deal, they each deserve their own review for their excellent work. Brandon from Signature DJs provided the best possible wedding DJ service. In planning the event, he was organized and thorough in working with us on the song list and order of events which he would be emceeing. Yet he took much of the burden off our shoulders by applying extensive experience and was flexible during the event in response to guests’ musical needs. The sound system quality was remarkable. He miked our ceremony, in which there were no sound issues, including the officiant, bride, groom, and a quartet in an expansive indoor space. The sound in the reception was also crisp and voluminous without preventing conversation – a difficult achievement. Complementary to the sound, Brandon provided “up lighting,” the maximum units of which we opted for. I recommend this choice because the lighting significantly supported the festive atmosphere to an extent I did not anticipate, though I trusted Brandon’s assertion that they would. Throughout the reception, Brandon monitored and responded to the energy of the dance floor to keep the party going all the way through the end of our time. He also provided a photo booth with an extensive set of props, which was a big hit with our guests, and which was of impressive, current technology. Finally, and this is the most memorable contribution, during the toasts to the bride and groom, Brandon interjected with a musical complement to a speech, which was perfectly humorous and elevating of the moment. Such an action could easily be detrimental, but Brandon’s judgement and awareness created a memory I will forever treasure. Concurrently, day-of coordinator Kellie was organized, knowledgeable, and delivers 100%. Here are some of the reasons why I highly recommend her. First, Kellie was super organized from the start. She set up a personal website for tracking to-do items and sent reminder emails to keep me on track with planning. She also helped me devise a precise wedding day timeline, reviewed my contracts with other vendors to confirm timing, and coordinated with them as a primary point of contact. She attended my final venue walkthrough and ceremony rehearsal to ensure everything was in order. Secondly, Kellie was very knowledgeable and had an answer for every question or issue. She identified issues I hadn’t considered and gave me advice and suggestions. She also had a great eye for detail and made sure everything looked perfect on the day. She texted me pictures of changes she made for my approval. She was always one step ahead of any problem and handled it before I noticed. Finally, Kellie delivered 100% on the day of the wedding. She showed up on time and immediately took over all setup and vendor instruction. She made sure everything ran smoothly and according to the timeline. She took care of the cleanup and packing at the end of the night. She moved my decoration pieces, cards, gifts, and photo guest book (already filled with the photobooth prints) to my hotel room and displayed them beautifully on a table. I was able to enjoy every moment of my wedding day without stress thanks to her. In summary, hiring Signature DJs Brandon and Kellie was the best decision I made for my wedding day. They went above and beyond what I expected. I cannot imagine better service.”

“James was the DJ for my wedding just two weeks ago! Going into the planning process, I knew Born to DJ because James also did my sister's wedding. He is one of the only DJ's I know that constantly reads the crowd. If he can tell people aren't liking a song, he will change it to keep everything lively. I wanted my wedding day to be a huge party, and I really wanted people dancing for the majority of it. That is not an easy thing to do but I have seen James keep people dancing and engaged at my sister's wedding and now mine. The planning couldn't have been easier, and I always felt reassured after speaking with him. Born to DJ couldn't have done better and I highly HIGHLY recommend them.”

OBEHI THE DJ

5.0

Charlotte, NC

DJ
Serves Roanoke, VA

Welcome! My name is Obehi (obey). I'm a Nigerian-born American. God has blessed me with many opportunities to be a full-time DJ. I take very seriously the nearly 200 weddings I've had the privilege of being a part of. I hope this curated page can show you and your family that I will give 110% of my talent and personality to aid in making your night one to remember.

“Obehi is a close friend of my wife and I, originally met him on the salsa dance floor. I knew I wanted him to DJ our wedding months before I even proposed to my wife, so booking him was a no-brainer when wedding plans officially began. We didn't even talk to/entertain the idea of other DJ vendors. He's easily the best hype man, he handled our on-the-fly suggestions during the reception, and seamlessly tied the whole party together--even troubleshooting the party RGB lighting rig DURING the reception dance set list when they stopped working for a few minutes. Coming from a computer & network technician, that's impressive in such a high-sakes environment. Thanks again for celebrating our marriage with us, my friend.”
