Last March I was throwing a surprise birthday party for my mom (50th!) and was having a hard time…read morefinding a DJ, especially one I could afford. An old college friend recommended I try Griffin Wing because she knew one of the DJ's and thought I could probably get a good deal. It turned out FABULOUS! The party was Disco themed and the DJ brought hours and hours of classics. He had a set prepared but was also eager to take requests - no monstrous ego to deal with. He even helped us with the 'surprise' part by playing my mom's favorite Elton John song right on que. There were dance lights all over the place, including a disco light which was perfect for our theme, and the speakers were bigger than I am. Their website says they do photography and videos too, but we didn't ask for anything other than great music. It was 50.00 an hour including set up and breakdown and I think we tipped an extra hour just for such great service - and bought the guy a few drinks of course! I would totally recommend anyone in the Piedmont area give these guys a call if you're pricing music for a party.

I was on the fence about hiring a videographer for our wedding. As it was, there were a lot of…read moreexpenses...and would we actually get around to watching it? I am so, so glad that I followed my friend's advice and hired Dean Garris. His film perfectly captured the day, more so than the photographs. He took some great footage of the venue and decor and was able to artfully edit that into scenes from the reception and ceremony. Being able to hear the music and see our parents and friends giving their speeches again is priceless, since the day itself went by in a blur.

When I dropped them off in December, I told them I was in no rush and was told they'd be done mid- to late-January. I picked them up the first week of February, so very close to their estimate. No issues there at all. They even added background music at no charge! It was pretty amazing seeing videos of my parents when they were in their 20's. Didn't even know video of them at that age even existed. I'll be dropping off more old 8mm reels very soon. Great job! Thanks! Andy
