Abigail and Andrew’s Family-Focused Wedding at Betsy’s Barn

There’s something incredibly special about seeing families come together for a wedding day, especially when you’ve had the honor of playing a part in their love stories before. Thirty years ago, I was lucky enough to be the DJ for Abigail’s parents’ wedding, and now, getting to be part of Abigail and Andrew’s big day felt like everything had come full circle.

The couple chose the rustic and beautiful Betsy’s Barn in Portersville, PA for both their ceremony and reception. It was the perfect summer day as the two exchanged vows in a picturesque outdoor ceremony. Family and friends gathered close, creating a feeling of warmth and togetherness that carried on throughout the evening.

Once inside the barn for the reception, the atmosphere shifted seamlessly from the intimate ceremony to a fun and lively celebration. Abigail and Andrew requested a fantastic playlist that started with great jazz and standards during dinner and gradually transitioned into a mix of fabulous hits that got the party started!

One of the most touching parts of the evening was seeing both families, old and young, filling the dance floor together. Whether they were swaying to timeless classics or belting out the lyrics to modern pop hits, the joy shared between generations was clear.

As the night drew to a close, the guests formed a giant circle around Abigail and Andrew for one last song: Billy Joel’s “Piano Man.” Singing together with all of their loved ones created such a special moment to wrap up the night before everyone headed outside for a magical sparkler send-off.

It was an incredible day filled with love, laughter, and family—just as it had been 30 years ago at Abigail’s parents’ wedding. I’m so grateful to have been part of both celebrations and to witness these beautiful connections that span across generations.
