I am extremely blessed to get to do something I love so much. Every time I get to go and be a part of someone’s celebration it feels new and fresh. This past weekend I DJ’ed a wonderful celebration that reminded me how long I’ve been this lucky. Carlee Saba and Robert Sontag were married...
This past weekend I was the DJ for Megan Warco and Ed Moran at the University Club in Pittsburgh, PA. Many couples could learn a lot from how Meg and Ed planned their reception. They wanted a celebration that was elegant and simple. They chose not to include a lot of the traditional elements, and...
This year I’ve had the pleasure of being DJ for the weddings of several people I’ve know for many, many years. Throughout 2011 I’ve been anxiously waiting to play at the reception of Nicole Meyers and Curtis Clow at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Moon Township, PA. I’ve known Nicole and her family since my...
One of my favorite parts of being a wedding DJ is seeing how the couple envisions their special day, so that I can help make sure it’s a big success. I had the pleasure of really getting to know Jenna Parcher and Christopher Shuknecht to help plan their wedding reception at The Summit Inn in...
Everyone knows that your wedding day is the one day when you’re allowed to do everything your way. I find that the people who have the best receptions are those who are willing to remember that their guests are the most important part of the celebration. This weekend I was able to DJ for Lindsay...
Location, location, location. Not only true in real estate, but maybe even more so when choosing the right wedding and reception venue for your special day. Your choice of venue will determine how your day will progress, and clearly it’s not a decision to be taken lightly. I love when I get to DJ at...
There are some things you just can’t control on your wedding day. Probably the biggest is the weather. In Western PA, you never know if you’re going to get a heat wave or a downpour. All you can do is accept what comes and pray for the best. The weather didn’t seem like it...
Planning a wedding is challenging. It’s even more so when you’re preparing everything from out of town. I tend to work with many people who used to call Pittsburgh home, and want to celebrate their big day back in the ‘Burgh. This weekend I was the DJ for Jennifer Prentice and Steven Derr at the...
It sounds so simple. Just do what you want on your wedding day. Yet so many people struggle with trying to find out how. I love it when a couple has created their perfect day by including special touches or events that will be memorable for the rest of their lives. Krista Shiwarski and Ryan...
One great way to share a part of yourself with your wedding guests is to choose a fun theme to help make the day feel extra customized. This past weekend I DJ’ed a very unique and elegant reception for Emily Knopfel and Scott Gibbons at the Twelve Oaks Mansion in Mars, PA. Emily and Scott...
No matter when you get married…they will come. People LOVE to join the wedding celebration. It doesn’t matter when or where you hold it, your friends and family will be there. This was certainly the case for Dottie Dutchesne and Daniel Miller when they said their vows on a beautiful Monday afternoon at Shakespeare’s in...
I’ve talked a lot about timing the perfect wedding day lately. It’s a challenge to coordinate everything between the church, vendors and venues. It can be even more difficult to know what do when planning an early ceremony. Many people fear their reception won’t be a big success if it starts early and doesn’t last...
