We hired Coastal DJ & Video for our wedding in Carolina Beach this October, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. From the start, speaking with the owner, George, made it clear we had made the right choice. The glowing reviews we had read were already convincing, but after talking to George, his professionalism and wealth of experience completely solidified our decision. He made us feel at ease right away. Their online portal was a fantastic tool—it allowed us to customize our song lists and upload our wedding schedule, ensuring everything went off without a hitch. Our beachfront ceremony presented unique challenges, but the team handled it flawlessly. They set up on the beach for the ceremony and seamlessly transitioned to keep the vibes alive during the reception at the house we rented. Our DJ, Karl, was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly helpful leading up to the wedding and truly shone on the big day. His MC skills were spot-on, keeping everything on track, and his energy and music choices had our guests dancing all night. The vibe he created was everything we hoped for and more. Coastal DJ & Video made our lives so much easier on the biggest day of our lives, allowing us to stay present and soak in every moment. If you’re planning a wedding, I can’t recommend them enough—eight days a week! Thank you, George, Karl, and the entire team, for making our day so special.

George was amazing at our wedding and kept the dancefloor packed all night! He did an awesome job identifying when songs needed to be changed, played, etc. He was also great as an MC for our wedding and I would definitely recommend!

10/18/2024 • Caroline K

Coastal DJ was great to work with. The music on the beach for our ceremony was great and it was definitely helpful to have mics on so our guests could hear what we were saying. DJ Karl had everyone on the dance floor all night and we all had a blast. I’m so happy we went with Coastal DJ for our wedding!

Everything was wonderful! I can't say enough good things about DJ Leroy, he was so sweet and he was one of the best dj's I've ever heard! I would absolutely recommend Coastal DJ! From the extremely fast replies, to the step by step instructions, and just genuine kindness that they provided us was extremely appreciated (especially since planning a wedding is so stressful!) George was amazing as well and our wedding day was perfect! Thank you Coastal DJ!

Coastal DJ was great to work with! George was great with communication and provided us with great tools to help us plan for our big day. Our assigned DJ was Cory. He was absolutely amazing. He was so sweet and accommodating. He made sure our wedding was what we dreamed it could be! He for sure made sure the whole crowd was up and dancing. I would recommend them to anyone and would defiantly use them again in the future.

7/28/2024 • Reanna D

SO happy I chose DJ Cory from Coastal DJ and Video to DJ our wedding. I loved working with this company because of how professional they are. They have multiple DJs as backups in case your DJ gets sick etc. and they genuinely care about your day. I personally really liked how they respected my wishes of not making my wedding a big show or production. They greatly respect your day, which is something I very much appreciate. Strongly recommend DJ Cory!

7/24/2024 • Megan B

George was amazing! He was quick with communication and I felt so confident in choosing him as our music vendor. He kept the party going all night. Everyone loved the music and was on the dance floor as soon as dinner wrapped!

7/23/2024 • Clayton L

The team was easy to communicate with and highly adaptable to changes in weather, etc. Very happy with the turnout of our video as wellm

5/27/2024 • Lauren C

My husband and I got married last week and used Coastal DJ and Video for both the audio for our ceremony, as well as the traditional DJ services. Coastal DJ and Video has an awesome website where you can add songs as well as a form that was very helpful questions with regard to timing of all the aspects of the wedding. George was also a great MC, and the flow of events (intros, parent dances, cake cutting, etc) went so smoothly. Overall, we couldn't have been happier with our DJ choice, and I would give more stars if I could!"

5/19/2024 • Cheryl F

Made my daughters wedding excellent. So much fun. Loved the music and professional DJ. Would highly recommend!!

12/26/2023 • Briana K

We wouldn't hesitate to use Coastal for future events. Great communication, provided everything we asked for our daughter's ceremony and reception. All of our guests had such a great time.

12/10/2023 • Nyasia W

Tony from Coastal DJ & Video deserves a standing ovation for turning our wedding night into a dancefloor extravaganza! From the first song, he had every single person on their feet, creating an energy that was unmatched and unseen anywhere else. Tony's musical instincts and ability to read the crowd transformed our celebration into a night of pure joy. The dancefloor magic he orchestrated made our wedding unforgettable. Coastal DJ & Video, and especially Tony, are true maestros of creating moments that will be cherished forever. Thank you for making our night wonderful!

11/15/2023 • Nan K

George did an awesome job DJing for my wedding! Since the beginning, he always kept me on track to make sure we were prepared for the big day. The uplighting was a nice touch and the music he played was great. We sent him a playlist that he could choose songs to play from. The online portal to complete all the information was easy to use. George was very flexible, professional, and friendly. Thank you George and Coastal DJ & Video!

10/30/2023 • Cassidy F

Matt C was our DJ and he was awesome! He was super professional and knew how to get the party started! Everyone was out on the dance floor! Matt listened to all of our requests and followed through with every single one. Coastal DJ & Video made it so easy to pick what music we liked and what we didn't like so we did not have to stress at all about music! Definitely recommend if you are looking for a great DJ!

10/07/2023 • Stevie K

Adrian from Coastal DJs provided ceremony and reception audio, and dance floor lighting for our wedding in Corolla, and did such a great job. A lot of our guests commented on how fun the music was, and we danced all night. They worked with us on timing and were happy to accommodate a custom song we had for the processional and entrances. Adrian was super friendly!

9/23/2023 • Megan F

We worked with the owner, George, until about a week or two before the wedding. They were great at communicating expectations but we did have some confusion due to automated emails, so just make sure you check in with them if you have confusion on an email, they respond very quickly! Our DJ was Jose and he did a great job of reading the room and taking requests from my husband and I when we weren’t feeling something that was being played.

8/22/2023 • Madison T

Jesse was the DJ for our wedding and I could not be happier with our experience! I was able to speak with him over the phone the week of the wedding to walk through our song choices and vision for the day which eased a lot of stress. Throughout the wedding we heard all of our favorites and everyone was having an incredible time. Jesse played all the right songs at the right times to ensure everyone was dancing the night away!

6/22/2023 • Melissa C

Our DJ was fun, personable and flexible. He helped make our wedding day perfect!

6/21/2023 • Taylor F

We booked Coastal DJ and Video as the DJ for our wedding after seeing George demonstrate his skills at the river room wedding event in January 2022. Although we were getting married in June 2023, we knew we wanted coastal Dj quickly after seeing the music keep the event alive and popping with energy, and the drop lights literally light up the room. We had a few phone calls with George prior to our wedding and felt we were well prepared for our day in terms of understanding the timeline, knowing what songs they needed our input on, and other details regarding the salsa (AKA photo) booth we booked. The day of arrived and George arrived with plenty of time, well before guests needed to arrive, to start setup for our outdoor ceremony. We flowed seamlessly from ceremony space, to our outdoor cocktail area, to inside for our reception. Some of our vendors commented they’ve never seen so many people on the dance floor and while our friends and family love to dance, I definitely attribute it to the great vibe George curated for the room! We would definitely recommend working with Coastal DJ!

6/21/2023 • Chandler D

George was an amazing DJ! 11/10 would recommend to anyone looking! Thank you so much George!

5/29/2023 • Samantha D

The way Coastal DJ and Video conducts business is top notch! George was so pleasant to speak with through the planning process with quick replies, reminders and so much reassurance. Matt, the DJ for our Manteo wedding was AMAZING. He was so professional and fun, he kept the entire guest list on the dance floor all night long!!! I highly recommend this company for any and all DJ needs!

5/14/2023 • Robert A

Adrian was such an important part of our wedding day! He really brought the party, made sure all of the sound was right at our ceremony and handled the many requests from our wedding guests with patience and enthusiasm. We had countless guests mention to us after the wedding how great our DJ was! Huge thanks to Adrian and coastal DJ services- would highly recommend!

5/13/2023 • Sarah H

We hired George and Coastal DJ for our wedding! He made sure all the right songs were played and helped us get the party going!

5/10/2023 • Taylor T

DJ S2 was fantastic!!! He rolled with the punches when a slight hiccup arose no fault to his! He kept us on the dance floor and we had the best night! Thank you for making our wedding the best!!

5/09/2023 • Victoria C

Joel was amazing! He knew exactly what we wanted played at our wedding and he delivered! Such an amazing night!!

5/02/2023 • Laura R

We danced the night away!!! The vibe was ON POINT! Such good communication and was spot on with all announcements throughout! Could not have asked for a better DJ and photo booth service!

3/14/2023 • Chase W

What an absolutely phenomenal DJ experience. George, quite simply, nailed it. My fiancé and I hosted roughly 160 guests for our beach wedding and ceremony in North Topsail. He coordinated our ceremony music seemlessly, and kept our timing for the entire event to a tee. Not to mention, he kept the party bumping and threw down absolute bangers all night. Thank you George and Coastal Dj&Video for making our wedding and reception unforgettable!

10/30/2022 • Ashley B

We worked with George and his team as the DJ and photo booth at our wedding at The River Room in downtown Wilmington on October 8, 2022. George was so helpful throughout the whole process, the online portal and reminder emails made the process very simple and easy to follow from start to finish. We LOVED our DJ, Joshua, who did an amazing job blending our own musical styles with what the crowd wanted, keeping people on the dance floor all night. He was so kind and fun and we'd absolutely recommend him and the Coastal DJ team for any event. Upgrade to the modern white DJ table... it's worth it and makes the whole room look more upscale!

10/19/2022 • Ashlee R

George and his team were so amazing through the entire process of planning my wedding. Joshua was our DJ and I couldn’t have had anyone else do a more perfect job than he did. He called me before the wedding just to get to know more about my husband and I. If anyone is looking for a reliable, hard-working, and trustworthy DJ then Coastal DJ and Video are who you want!!

10/19/2022 • Samantha V

George and his team at Coastal were absolutely amazing to work with. everything was super easy and functional to communicate and add songs. George made sure all of our songs were correct and even played a special song for my grandparents. Every step of the way from when I booked them almost a year and half ago was completely smooth! Thank you so much for Coastal DJ for being a part of our wedding day!

10/08/2022 • Jodi L

Can’t say enough great things about George & Coastal DJ! We loved having them at our wedding and they kept the party going all night long! George was wonderful to work with and went above and beyond to make our day so special. He is very professional and enjoyable tk work with. We met several times before the wedding to discuss songs, timing, vision, etc. This reassured me we were in great hands. Loved his song platform - we were able to submit our “must play,” “would like to play,” and “do not play” songs. He has lots of great enhancements that wowed us & our guests - C02 gun, bride cam, cold sparks, and videography services! 10/10 recommend. Thank you to the Coastal DJ team for making our wedding so much fun!!

10/04/2022 • Jill B

We had a phenomenal experience with Coastal DJ and Video! George was always helpful and responsive to all of my requests and questions, Adrian, our DJ, has a wonderful personality and kept the party going all night, and Teshia, our photo booth assistant, was so friendly and accommodating! Thank you all SO much for helping us have such an unforgettable and amazing wedding night!

10/04/2022 • Ashley H

George was absolutely INCREDIBLE! He knew exactly how to bring people together, through his abilities to keep others engaged as well as just bringing a positive energy for a memorable event. My husband and I are seriously grateful for George and would recommend over and over again. THANK YOU GEORGE !!!!

9/28/2022 • McKayla W

I cannot say enough about how AMAZING Coastal DJ & Video was on our wedding day. Adrian was our DJ and he brought PARTY! He went above and beyond for everything. He was always responsive by text within minutes and was super flexible the day of the wedding. He listened to all my requests and added his own touch to make the night perfect! He was super easy to get along with and matched our guests energy perfectly! Adrian’s experience, professionalism, and personality were truly the foundation of our incredible reception. GO COASTAL DJ & VIDEO! You will not regret it!

9/20/2022 • Laura P

We hired Coastal DJ and they were fantastic! They arrived early, were professional, and fun! My guests enjoyed them as well! Thanks guys! You were awesome!

9/20/2022 • Devon L

George did an incredible job DJ’ing. Handled everything like a pro. His music, to facilitation, to the ambiance his up lighting provided was perfect.

9/19/2022 • Raechel B

Coastal DJ was the best decision I could have made for my wedding. The planning process was so easy and we had the pleasure to work with George Wainwright. He was always there for me and my husband throughout the entire process. He was quick to answer any questions we had. I had an out of town wedding (we are from Virginia Beach), so I wasn't able to met George before our wedding day. Let me tell you, I've never had such an amazing experience with someone on such a huge day. He was kind and listened to all our requests. He pulled my wedding together and made a unforgettable night not only to my husband and I, but to all our friends and family. Thank you so much George! I couldn't have asked you to do anything better!

9/06/2022 • carleigh j

We were very happy with this company my husband and I used for our wedding! They are very detailed oriented. We had a client portal where we added some of the 'must play' and 'special' songs. In the portal there is a form we filled out with all the times and details of events. Our DJ was George. He was very nice and cheerful. He called a few days before to review everything. On our wedding day he showed up early to set up. Everything went seamlessly! My husband and I received many, many compliments about how much fun our reception was! Those compliments were 100% due to Costal DJ and video. Our family and friends danced all night! I HIGHLY recommend!

6/06/2022 • Amanda S

Josh from Coastal DJ was absolutely incredible!! Our wedding was so much fun and he included all of our favorite songs and kept the party going! He was so positive and upbeat - he truly made us feel amazing & felt like he knew us forever. I never had to worry about a single thing! George also made it so simple and easy leading up to the wedding, answering every question and email as well as walking me through every detail!

5/23/2022 • Bethany M

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. We’re so thankful for Josh and Coastal DJ and Video!!!

5/23/2022 • Cassidy K

My husband and I hired Coastal DJ & Video for our wedding in Corolla and they truly went above and beyond. Adrian was our DJ and he was exceptional! He kept the party going. As soon as people started drifting away from the dance floor, he would switch it up and knew how to get people to stay dancing! We had a little hiccup with the Photo Booth that we rented - first the Photo Booth attendent wasn't able to make it due to being sick however George did his best to try to find someone else. Unfortunately he couldn't however he reassured me that it was an easy system to use. George then came to set up the Photo Booth however it wasn't working BUT they left the backdrop and we were still able to use it to take photos in front of. George also took no time to send me a check to refund for the Photo Booth which I truly appreciate! 10/10 would recommend Coastal DJ and Video!

5/23/2022 • Kristina C

5 stars across the board!!! Josh was fantastic! We had a great night and received so many compliments about our DJ and the fun atmosphere he created. He had people dancing all night just as we had hoped for! The communication process leading up the wedding was easy and clear and we are so thankful you guys helped make our special day PERFECT!

5/17/2022 • Janie R

100% recommend!!! DJ Josh was amazing!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He really made himself part of the party. He was super responsive, cordial, and just an outstanding DJ. He read the crowd and made sure everyone was satisfied with the music, and even took requests! He made our reception extra special! Our experience was out of this world. Highly recommend coastal DJ and Video!!

5/16/2022 • Amanda P

DJ Jose was absolutely amazing! He has all the best 90s and 2000s jams 😜 Can’t recommend this company enough!

5/16/2022 • Shelby B

George was amazing!! For my destination wedding in Corolla, NC one of my biggest must have was a great DJ and George did not disappoint. He made everything so easy and simple during planning and was a hit at the wedding. The best part of it all were his cold sparks that made for some pretty cool photos.

5/12/2022 • Whitley D

Jose was great! Very responsive to questions we had before our wedding! Made sure to play songs that everyone from all age groups could get up and dance to! Definitely would recommend!

5/12/2022 • Elizabeth P

George was absolutely wonderful!! From our initial phone call, I knew having him as our DJ would be amazing! From all of the reminder emails to the day of, it could not have been more seamless! George did an absolutely amazing job with our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception song selections and transitions. So many of our guests have told us what an amazing job George did and we couldn’t agree more! Thank you so much for being apart of our special day!

5/12/2022 • Alley C

George and his team are so professional! His equipment is pristine and looks so beautiful with the stage lights.

Went with Coastal DJ and Video for our wedding. DJ Josh was in the booth and absolutely crushed it. Josh was courteous and professional throughout all our interactions and was an absolute pleasure to work with

3/29/2022 • Rachel L

George and his team went out of his way to ensure we had an amazing wedding day! From the beginning, George was extremely informative and provided up front information about everything we needed for our wedding. James, our DJ, was extremely friendly and accommodating and sure knew how to read the crowd! He kept the dance floor grooving and no one sat down for a second! We would highly recommend James and any one at Coastal DJ For a wedding reception. I wish the night didn't end, it was that spectacular! Thank you all again and God Bless!

11/12/2021 • Hannah W

Marcus was an amazing addition to our wedding reception! From the phone call to our actual event - he listened and gave us great insight into how the night would flow. He helped ease my stress about all the wedding details and we absolutely loved having him be a part of our big day! We highly suggest Marcus and the whole team at Coastal Dj & Video to any friends/family looking for a DJ service!

10/31/2021 • Cari J

We used Coastal DJ and Video for our wedding ceremony and reception on Saturday, October 9th, 2021. We also booked the Curve Photobooth for our reception. George and the Coastal DJ and Video staff went above and beyond to make our Wedding day spectacular. Our ceremony was planned to be on the beach, but the weather wasn't really cooperating for this. The decision was made, based on the weather radar, to move the ceremony up in time by 15 minutes because there was a break in the expected rain/storming. 15 might not seem like a lot of time, but in the Event-planning world, that is equivalent to a millisecond and can make or break a start time based on preparedness. George was more than willing to adjust the time frame for set up, and when the window of stormy weather changed, he was super flexible at moving and setting everything inside. Because the weather determined a lot of our timeline for pictures and what not into our ceremony/reception, George really went with the flow and made our night full of music and memories that will last forever for us. We could not have asked for better service or better professionalism. We would recommend his and Coastal DJ and Video services over and over again. Thank you so much, George!!!!

10/28/2021 • Ty D

Amazing experience, our DJ was DJ James. James connected with us ahead of the wedding and went through all of our requirements and requests. Our venue was the backyard of our house on the beach, James made sure everything was set up and went off without a hitch. Our guests absolutely loved it and had an amazing time!

10/26/2021 • Carrie K

Coastal DJ handled my wedding day needs in a profesional, efficient, and generous manner. They were responsive to my changing needs and always made me feel like they could handle any curveballs. On the wedding day DJ Adrian was a hit! He was fun, easygoing and professional and he let one of the young cousins hang out with him all night. Many of our guests commented that he was the best wedding DJ they’d heard. I highly recommend this group!

10/25/2021 • Alex T

Everything was absolutely amazing! I know the star rating is out of 5s, but we give DJ Nick and the Coastal DJ Team straight 10s across all categories! The night exceeded all expectations, and the music played a major role in that! Their system was easy to navigate, and we were able to have all of the music we wanted, and create the perfect vibes for us! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such a special night! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!

10/04/2021 • Rachel B

Coastal DJ was amazing for our wedding! George was so easy going with everything, and chose the best songs to keep us on the dance floor, the dance floor was never empty!
