Stephanie and Nick (J. Verno Studios Wedding DJ)

I talk a lot about the various details of each wedding, and there certainly is a lot to discuss.  The actual dancing portion of the evening only makes for a small percentage of my DJ responsibilities.  That said, it is also the most fun part of being a DJ.  I find that getting to play...

Cassie and Bobby (Wyndham Grand Wedding DJ)

I simply love the fall, it’s my favorite time of year.  Clearly, so do many Pittsburghers, since so many people choose to have their wedding during this beautiful season.  Cassie Russell and Bobby Mirt used a fantastic fall color palette to give their day an elegant, yet fun appearance.  The view of Pittsburgh from the Wyndham...

Megan and James (Pittsburgh Airport Marriott DJ)

You can make your wedding day much more personal by taking the time to add little touches and special details that will mean a lot to your guests.  If you happen to be creative and crafty, then it should be easy to find ways to customize the day in a variety of ways.  At Megan...

Kristi and Andor (Greek Orthodox Social Hall DJ)

One aspect of being a wedding DJ that I enjoy is the coordination and effort it takes to be certain the evening runs smoothly.  I work with each couple to make sure their reception includes all the details and events they desire.  The key is in giving the newlyweds time to visit and relax, while...

Janette and Chris (Green Gables Wedding DJ)

Most of the weddings I play are located in downtown Pittsburgh, or in the surrounding communities, but every once in a while I get to travel a little further away from home to be a part of a couple’s special day.  I find that even though these trips require a little more time and coordination,...

Jaime and Matt (Carnegie Museum Wedding DJ)

Often when I meet with prospective clients for my DJ service, they’ll ask just how much the music for their wedding reception can be customized.  I always assure them, that if they choose, they could pick 100% of the music to make their day exactly as they wish.  By the time the wedding rolls around,...

Alyson and Michael (Renaissance Pittsburgh DJ)

I love to be organized. I take my role as wedding DJ seriously and know it’s my responsibility to assist in making the wishes of each bride and groom become reality. My job is always fun, but I get the chance to enjoy myself even more when I work with couples who have the same...

Erin & Andy (Mayernik Center Wedding DJ)

Another DJ told me once that he felt all receptions were the same.  Clearly I couldn’t disagree with this statement more, and as evidence of this I can present hundreds of examples.  At the top of the list would be the reception of Erin McNeilly and Andy Voltz at the Mayernik Center outside of Pittsburgh,...

Kerri & Ty (Hilton Garden Inn DJ)

I just love when people throw creative flair into the the details that decorate their reception venue.  This Saturday at the Hilton Garden Inn, there were many signs of Kerri DiGiovanni’s and Ty Lacock’s knack for creativity.   The first thing that caught most people’s attention were the signs that were featured at the bar, the...

Erica and John (Embassy Suites Hotel DJ)

Probably the thing I love most about being a wedding DJ is how different every celebration is, based on the preferences of the bride and groom.  I love working with people to make sure the music of the day reflects their taste and style.  I was fortunate to work with Erica King and John Fisher...

Jordan and Michael (Shady Elms Farm DJ)

A little creativity can go a long way.  A lot of creativity can help create a wedding day that is guaranteed to be like no other.  Everywhere you looked at the celebration of Jordan Spindler and Michael Gehlmann there were special, unique, and extremely creative touches.  They poured themselves into making their special day at Shady Elms Farm one...

Chelsey and Patrick (Marriott City Center DJ)

Elegance is a difficult word to describe, but you certainly know it when you see it.  This past weekend I was fortunate to be the DJ for the wedding of Chelsey Miller and Patrick McKenney at the Marriott City Center in downtown Pittsburgh, and everything about this perfect evening reflected a sense of simple elegance...
