Results are out for the second Wedding Industry Experts Awards, and it is with great pleasure that we announce that Brian Pate Entertainment won the Best DJ Service in North Carolina for the second year in a row, and was ranked #7 in the United States, up two spots from 2012’s #9 ranking.
The awards are an annual competition recognizing some of the most popular wedding professionals at a local, national and international level. This year wedding professionals from 29 countries participated in seventy categories.
Brian Pate Entertainment is located in Wake Forest, North Carolina and has a team of five DJs, one sound engineer and two event managers for many different types of events. Last July, BPE celebrated their 25th anniversary, 14 of those years operating from Wake Forest.
The company has supplied sound and entertainment for many Wake Forest and Rolesville events including Meet In The Street, Six Sundays In Spring and the July 4th fireworks, Children’s Parade and Art In The Park, The Rolesville and Wake Forest Christmas Parades, Caring For Caelon and Relay For Life. In addition, BPE has performed for over 1,000 weddings in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.
Jim Walker, Vice President of Operations for BPE said, “We are excited to be honored for the second year in a row as one of the top ten Wedding DJ Services in the country.” He added, “To be recognized on a national level in the same breath as some of the companies in large metro areas like Los Angeles, Atlanta and Miami is a tribute to how hard all of our DJs work to make every event spectacular for our clients.”
Brian Pate, President and CEO could not contain his excitement. “I am thrilled for the guys that make this happen. Our goal is to hire quality people that provide a quality product every time out, and this group certainly delivers on that promise,“ he said.
