Tessa and Brian (Pittsburgh Airport Marriott)

It’s become cliche to talk about how quickly time seems to pass by on the wedding day.  While I’m certain clocks continue to click at their normal speed, couples do have to choose how to spend the day wisely.  Tessa and Brian created one of the most original and brilliant evenings I’ve ever been a...

Joelle and Jamie (Grand Hall at the Priory)

One of my favorite parts of every wedding is getting to meet the couple and their families.  It’s fun to see how family members join in to help make the day perfect.  Joelle and Jamie were sure to include special elements at their reception that would be memorable for everyone. Pittsburgh’s Grand Hall at the...

Melina and Tony (Bigelow Conference Center)

I love working with couples who want to create a specific atmosphere for their wedding reception.  Melina and Tony planned their reception at the Bigelow Conference Center, and was an experience which allowed their guests to enjoy a great day of celebrating. The day was filled with great personal touches, such as a pianist for cocktails, a...

Katie and Patrick (Four Points Sheraton Reception)

A wedding reception can be the time when you can truly let loose.  All the hard work and planning have paid off, and it’s finally time to enjoy yourself completely with friends and family.  It was a pleasure for me to watch Katie and Patrick get a little crazy during their fantastic reception at the...

Ashley and Matt (J Verno Studios DJ)

I love working with couples who not only love music, but who know how much fun it can be to use a specific song to enhance their wedding reception.  I had a blast working with Ashley and Matt to create a once in a lifetime mix of music that suited them perfectly. The reception, which...

Mackenzie and Zachary (Power Center Ballroom)

Timing is always one of the most tricky aspects of any wedding day.  While you don’t want to be trapped by holding to a strict schedule, it’s easy to lose track of time during a day full of activities.  It was great fun to be part of Mackenzie and Zachary’s perfectly executed wedding day in...

Mikel Lynn and Jim (Shakespeare’s Castle DJ)

Your wedding day should be a reflection of your style. No matter what your tastes are, your big day is a chance to showcase who you are to the people who mean the most to you. The guests at the wedding of Mikel Lynn Davis and Jim Langan were given a great opportunity to be...

Kathryn and Michael (J. Verno Studios DJ)

Wedding days are romantic, elegant, and always unique.  Everyone knows the main purpose of the day is to acknowledge the love of the newlyweds as they begin their new lives together.  While every couple chooses their own way to mark the occasion, I have the best time working with those who really know that this day...

Becky and Alex (Shakespeare’s Castle Wedding DJ)

If you read through my entries here, I hope people understand how much I do enjoy getting to DJ at so many wonderful and elegant weddings in Pittsburgh and throughout Western Pennsylvania. The end of the year always brings a variety of emotions, since it’s about time for some much needed R&R, but it’s hard...

Mary Katherine and Thomas (Fox Chapel Golf Club)

It’s that time of year again, when Pittsburgh weather gets a little more unpredictable.  When planning a wedding for December and through winter, you never know if you’re going to get sun, rain, or even snow.  With any luck, you’ll end up with the perfect day that Mary Katherine Moravek and Thomas Fisher had for...

Alyssa and Chris (The Club At Nevillewood DJ)

I always say that most wedding guests want to dance.  The newlyweds have given them a reason to celebrate, so it shouldn’t take much to get them up and dancing.  This was absolutely the case at the reception of Alyssa Beel and Chris Gonzalez held on a beautiful November evening at the Club at Nevillewood...

Stacie and Michael (Longue Vue Club DJ)

Sometimes I don’t get to meet couples until the actual wedding day.  While it can be a challenge to plan from out of town, I often work with couples by email and phone up til the big day.  For the reception of Stacie Jo Pawlack and Michael Dickson, I was only able to work directly...
