Ashley and Jon (Chadwick Reception DJ)

Winter has come to Pittsburgh! Just in time for the beautiful snowy-themed wedding of Ashley Derby and Jon Seelnacht. They hoped to have just the right amount of accumulation to fit in with their winter motif, but not enough to keep people from making it to the reception at the Chadwick in Wexford. The weather could not have been better.

The Chadwick was decorated elegantly with many signs of the wintery season.  A hot beverage buffet awaited guests with coffee, hot chocolate and apple cider.  Along with the cookie table, there was also a great candy buffet for kids of all ages.

Ashley and Jon gave me lots of flexibility when it came to the music for entertaining their guests.  This lead to an evening with music for everyone which really kept the dance floor jumping all night long.

Before the party got crazy, everyone watched the couple have their formal dances…

When the dancing started, everyone rushed to get glowsticks.  This is always a fun touch that helps get the party going!

Ashley and Jon created a reception that felt warm and cozy during a typically chilly time of year.  It was clear that everyone enjoyed the special touches that were provided to be sure everyone had a good time.  The newlyweds are now off on a well deserved trip to much hotter temperatures in Punta Cana.
