Bailey and Tom (Grand Hall at the Priory Wedding)

I’ll start this post by stating the obvious.  I love music.  I’m sure one of the main things that have kept me loving my job as a PIttsburgh DJ is how much I enjoy listening to and playing new music.  Since I welcome input from every couple to make sure the music for their celebration...

Stephanie and Joel (Beth Shalom Synagogue DJ)

Throughout my career as a Pittsburgh DJ, I’ve been fortunate enough to perform at a variety of various cultural and religious wedding receptions.  While I wouldn’t consider my self a specialist at these events, I work closely with couples to make sure I can provide the exact entertainment service they need.  Stephanie Rosenthal and Joel...

Dana and Bradley (Sheraton Station Square DJ)

Weddings are filled with special moments, but I feel the ones that are unexpected and unique are the ones your guests will remember for years to come.  I assure my clients that I won’t spring any surprises on them, but if I can help bring a great idea to life, I’m always glad to help....

Nicole and Geoff (Wildwood Golf Club DJ)

While almost everyone I work with loves music and has their own unique preferences, it’s a special pleasure for me to get to DJ a wedding for people who are passionate about their musical tastes enough to spend time customizing the wedding music in a way to make their day fit their style.  The music...

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,...
