After so many years of DJing weddings here in Pittsburgh, I assumed I had seen every combination of wedding colors and decorations. Kayla and Michael proved me wrong in the most amazing way by using 5 vibrant and stunning colors for their celebration at the Westwood Golf Club in West Mifflin, PA. The ballroom was...
It’s fun when couples include special touches or details into the decorations at their reception. I was excited to learn that Sarah and Matt got engaged at Disney World.

One challenge every couple faces is how to make their wedding day flow to keep everything running smoothly.

The Grand Concourse at Station Square was the perfect choice for the celebration. From the...
A 6 hour wedding reception typically includes around 115 songs. From cocktails until the last song, a couple must choose how to spend their time to have the day of their dreams. Lucky for me, Laura and Brad wanted lots of time for dancing and visiting with their guests at their fantastic celebration at The Rivers...

Jessica and Phil had the perfect wedding reception at the Valley Brook Country Club in McMurray, PA. It wasn’t perfect because the weather was amazing (which it was).

Amy and Doug’s wedding at The White Barn in Prospect, PA gave me a chance to really think about the power of words. They took great care to express themselves not only through their vows, but also through their programs, table settings, and decorations. The way they used words and phrases gave the wedding a personalized touch...
Let’s face it, some people just know how to throw a celebration. Sometimes from the moment cocktail hour begins, you can just tell that a reception is going to become an absolute party. Bernadette and David held their reception at the Sheraton Station Square, and their guests could not have been more excited to watch them have...
Great friends and great music make for great weddings. I love that I get to see couples surrounded by their closest friends while dancing and singing to their favorite songs. Adrienne and Ed had plenty of both for their elegant and fun reception at the Edgewood Country Club in Chuchill, PA. This was an especially fun night for...
A key to a great reception is to allow some variety into your music selections. Lauren and Chris did an amazing job coming up with a mix of music that appealed to all of their friends and family for their nuptials and celebration at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens in Pittsburgh. Phipps was the perfect location...
I find that every couple I work with is able to create ways to really be themselves on their wedding day.
