Nicholas' Wedding DJ Service 
Rating: 5.0 (15 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Downing, MO

I’ve been DJing weddings for 6 years, and it’s truly the work I enjoy most. My service is tailored to your taste, whether you want to curate every song or just share a few favorites and let me run with it. I know how to keep the dance floor packed, and I handle announcements naturally so your guests stay engaged and informed. I also work closely with couples on their timeline to make sure everything flows seamlessly with your other vendors. I’d love to connect and learn more about your wedding plans!

Awarded Best of Zola
When booking my vendors, it was so important to me to choose vendors that not only were great at what they do, but are also amazing human beings. Your DJ spends your entire wedding day with you, so who you choose sets the tone for the entire day. Nicholas was absolutely phenomenal. As I said, not only was he an insanely talented dj, but he also is just one of the kindest, most genuine, and passionate people. He answered my hundred questions throughout wedding planning, HAPPILY, was willing to call, text, and video chat anytime I needed, and put so much intentional thought into creating the best atmosphere for our wedding. On the wedding day, he truly went above any expectations I had for my DJ. NUMEROUS of my family and friends came to me and told me how impressed they were with how he mixed music and kept the dance floor alive for hours. He is truly so so talented and such a phenomenal person. At the wedding, he brought us drinks throughout the night, was so kind to all our guests and other vendors, and made the day everything I wanted. Throughout our wedding planning process, anytime I talked with any other vendors (photographers, venues, coordinators, florists, etc) and mentioned that our dj was going to be Nicholas, EVERY single person said how they’ve had such amazing experiences working with him. That speaks such volumes about him. He will absolutely make sure that your wedding runs smoothly from start to finish. I promise you will be so happy you choose him!!!

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

The photographer, videographer, and photo booth was absolutely perfect and our guests had a blast! However, even after going through the work of submitting a Spotify play list and adding do not play songs or DJ played the wrong version of our first dance song (I checked and we had the correct version listed on our playlist we sent over), he also played songs from our do not play list to the point I, the bride, came over to ask if he had the wrong list. He admitted he was using songs from the do not play list as he was not paying attention. I would also like to note, though our wedding was more casual, our DJ was dressed in a sloppy manner. His shirt was half untucked from his pants, there were stains on his shirt and pants. Besides a few hiccups, direct Entertainment was wonderful to work with!

They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

From the moment we met Isaac, we knew we were in the best hands. He has an incredibly calming presence and a natural way of making you feel comfortable, which meant we were able to be fully present on our wedding day. Our Sonoma farm wedding unfolded with a gorgeous outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner reception, followed by music and festivities in the barn. Isaac captured every moment with such artistry and intention. The images feel effortless yet elevated as every frame tells a story, from quiet, emotional moments to the joy and movement of our guests celebrating into the night. The photographs from our first dance in the barn truly took our breath away. The way Isaac used the natural light, textures of the wood, and atmosphere of the space made the images feel cinematic and timeless. Working with Isaac was seamless, professional, thoughtful, and genuinely joyful. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day exactly as it felt. The images are beautiful, emotional, and full of life. We are endlessly grateful for his vision and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone dreaming of a wedding that feels both authentic and artfully captured.
