Marty Nightengale - DJ. Musician. MC.

5.0

Chapel Hill, NC
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,200

Your event deserves the best music professional! I know planning an event and choosing a DJ can be a lot; let me make the music the easiest part for you. I’ve been making memorable experiences since 2007; where I shine is matching the music to your vibe while also reading the room, using real DJ transitions to keep the dance floor energy up, working with vendors to keep the event running smoothly, interacting with the crowd, and customizing what I do for each client to create an authentic celebration that brings you and your guests together. Whether it's a wedding, corporate event, or private party; I've got you covered.

If you are looking for the best DJ for your wedding please do not look any further. We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Marty. But we are going to list them anyway! First off, Marty was such a joy to work with and we do not say that lightly. Even before he even played a song at our wedding, the process of working with Marty was truly unmatched. He was the most accommodating and listened to our every request (of which there were many lol). Every call we had with him, we would hang up and just feel filled with joy (We know that sounds corny but it is truly what my wife and I felt like). He truly went above and beyond to make our entertainment at our wedding come alive. At the wedding - he was UNREAL!!! I would consider myself fairly "picky" when it comes to entertainment and he blew my expectations out of the water. He brought an amazing set up with lights for him and also uplighting that is a must. Finally, I think the thing we appreciated most about Marty was that he was so genuine. The wedding business is filled with people who are looking out for themselves first and Marty could not be more opposite of that. He truly cared about us and could not have been more thoughtful. We will never forget it! We cannot say enough great things about Marty. He truly is gifted and is a NO brainer for not only a wedding but any event!

Discoboxx

5.0

Raleigh, NC
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,995

I started Discoboxx in 2022 to bring a more stylish and tasteful approach to weddings and events in North Carolina. For ten years, I was fortunate to help grow two of the biggest and most successful DJ collectives in Los Angeles, DJing hundreds of weddings and playing at the most stunning event venues and nightlife spots. When my family decided to move to Raleigh, I knew I would have the opportunity to create a new experience for clients in The Tar Heel State looking for something different. A wedding DJ company for couples not looking for a “wedding DJ.”

As a wedding planner, I work with a lot of wedding DJs - and by far, Discoboxx has been the best experience for both my couples and myself. They truly take the time to get to know couples, provide a customized planning portal and conduct final meetings to confirm details, and are fantastic with communication and response time. On the day-of, they excel at everything from announcements and guiding the flow of guests all the way through dance floor transitions and mixing records. Intuitive, talented, and client experience-focused; you won't find a better DJ collective than Discoboxx.

We hired Victor and his team to DJ our wedding. We also had an incredibly fun photo booth through them. Victor helped get our party started after dinner, encouraging our guests to get up and dance, and even helped lead/teach some dances. His fun personality made it easy for everyone to enjoy the night! We loved them so much, my husband and mother hired them again for my surprise birthday party. Once again, he was a hit, and so was the photo booth!

Now, I'm based in Asheville, NC and work with students of all ages sharing the joys of the harp.

Tori made our wedding truly special! Having a harpist play during the ceremony and reception was always a dream of mine. She made the entire process very easy from consultation, to arrangement, to day-of. She even arranged a beautiful rendition of Soulja Boy's "Kiss Me Thru the Phone" to play during cocktail hour! She approached this unique challenge with a sense of humor and lightheartedness while still being very professional. Overall, she was very attentive, warm, and a joy to work with. Thank you, Tori!

Bill Carroll was more than a DJ at my mom's wedding. He genuinely cared about my mom's wishes and made it clear he wanted her to have the best wedding ever. It's like he became a member of our family leading up to and during the wedding. He made the entire process SO easy. When it came to the actual wedding day, everything went off without a hitch. My favorite part was when everyone left to line up and send off my mom and her new hubby, he played one final song for just the two of them to dance to, by themselves, on the dance floor. It was so incredibly touching. I can't recommend him enough. Absolute stand up guy and a DJ who knows what he's doing! Everyone had a blast. We love you, Bill Carroll!

Whether that means beautiful sounds or a beautiful place setting. In my opinion, the two are inextricably linked. Beauty is what I strive to create for each bride and groom.
