Why Couples Trust 196 Events
They definitely understood the assignment when it came to the music selections. They had the best judgement on the type of vibe and music I wanted for our reception. Everyone at my wedding raved about how much fun they had!
Kennedy & Don
I can't overstate how much fun we had at our wedding thanks to 196 Events. The music was perfect from beginning to end, it was fun, inclusive without being cheesy, poignant when appropriate, and the dance floor was BUMPIN.
Daniel & Shelby
Nikki and Devail are a POWER COUPLE and know how to party! They worked so well with our venue, The Lesner Inn, to ensure our timeline went smoothly and all our traditions were included. They went above and beyond with super fun remixes and song mashups! I wish I could re-live this night over and over again!
Jackson & Brenna
They were very responsive to my emails and text messages and only wanted what was in our best interests! On our wedding day, they surpassed our expectations!! Our guests did not want to leave the dance floor and did not want the night to be over!! Best DJ ever!
Amber & Cole
I truly got to enjoy a day that I had only imagined because of them. I would over and over recommend them for any event, especially if you're looking for it to be fun and memorable.
Yodani & JJ
It was one of the best days of our lives and I just want to keep living it. Every one of our guests loved the vibe. The ceremony music went off without a hitch. We are incredibly grateful for them!
Katelyn & Larry
We hired 196 Events for our wedding and they absolutely killed it!! They were punctual, communicative, professional but also so friendly. They were both so prepared, helpful and I would definitely recommend again!! I want to throw another party just to hire them again!

THe Couple Behind the brand
wedding packages
196 (one-nine-six) represents Matthew 19:6 “So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together let no one separate." We believe that marriage is more than just the wedding day. It’s the beginning of your journey as ONE. A journey that will last well beyond the wedding cake and embarrassing toasts. It’s a union of hearts that will only grow deeper as you navigate your new life together. We consider it an absolute honor and blessing to help so many couples celebrate this momentous occasion.
Our WHy
our Love story
Our story began in November 2003, at a local credit union where Devail was working. I handed him my check, but he wanted my number. 😁 That first call turned into hours of conversation that felt like reconnecting with someone I’d known forever.
Our first date was a movie night at the old AMC near Lynnhaven Mall (now an indoor go-kart track), followed by each other’s company Christmas parties. From there, we’ve been inseparable. We said “I do” in 2006 and are now raising three beautiful children together.
Fun fact: Even though we never had a wedding of our own, we’ve dedicated our lives to helping other couples celebrate theirs. Working side by side has been one of our greatest joys, and we’re so grateful to keep doing what we love—together.
