    Thanks! I read that post and will have to look him up when we go down. I really need recommendations for DJ's too, if anyone knows which ones are better/worse. I'm really hesitant because my sister got married here in VA in December and the DJ never played any slow songs and his mic was so muffled noone heard/understood him! Noone paid attention during toasts or dinner blessing.... I'm scared it will happen at mine too!!:) -Jessica

    If you come across him, don't use Sound Idea Productions the guys name is Mark Johnston. Hes a nice guy but better as a radio dj then a wedding dj.

    I live in VA too (N. VA) and am getting married in Corolla in Oct. '09. Reverend Jay Bowman is our officiant (http://www.yourobxwedding.com/). He married friends of mine a few years ago and they had a great experience with him. He's very laid back and though getting married is serious, he kept the ceremony so it wasn't uptight. He's also been very responsive to me whenever I contact him with questions. Good luck!

    Thanks! I emailed him a couple times and seems nice. I'd appreciate any comments you have about him after your wedding... Good luck! Where will you be holding your wedding/reception? We've chosen the Roanoke Island Aquarium... it seems so unique and beautiful, I can't wait! -Jessica

    Hi! I think I know which DJ e-mailed you the short, not nice e-mail. It was probably John Harper. It wasn't super nice in his e-mail with me, but every local I have talked to recommened him. I contacted Sue Artz from obx violin and she has been very nice and her rates are very affordable.
