Melissa and Matt (White Barn)

One of the keys to ensuring a successful wedding reception is to be sure to include a great variety of music during the celebration.  I encourage couples to take advantage of every moment of their wedding day to feature different types of music from their favorite artists.  Melissa and Matt did an amazing job in choosing music, so all of their guests would be able to be part of the fun all day long.

The reception was held at the beautiful and rustic White Barn in Prospect, PA.  The barn looked fantastic decked out in Fall colors and flowers.

Melissa and Matt’s playlist included everything from Motown, R&B, rap and top 40 hits.  Including such a great mix of music was the perfect fit for their friends and family.  The party could have lasted all night long, but it was great to see so many guests at the end of the night ready for the couple’s wonderful sparkler exit!  The newlyweds are soon off to Grenada for a romantic and well deserved honeymoon.

It’s important to remember that your wedding day will be a special day for every guest who attends.  People need happy reasons to gather with friends and family to make new memories, and there is nothing like a great reception to make that happen.  Ashley and Kevin gave their loved ones some amazing moments during their beautiful Fall wedding ceremony and reception held at Armstrong Farms in Saxonburg, PA.

Rachel and Griffin (Sheraton Pittsburgh Airport)

The first dance of the bride and groom is always a special moment during the reception.  I’m always impressed with couples who take the time to choreograph the dance since it adds so much extra work and pressure to the big day.  Rachel and Griffin clearly had spent lots of time learning their dance and the results where absolutely worth it as all their guests clapped and cheered throughout their amazing performance.

Their reception was at the Sheraton Pittsburgh Airport and the ballroom looked fantastic with red chair sashes with amber uplighting.  It made the perfect setting for an evening with friends and family who had gathered to celebrate with the newlyweds.

Everyone was definitely inspired by Rachel and Griffin’s first dance, since after dinner the dance floor instantly filled as all the guests joined in the celebration.  The playlist included a great variety of music from yesterday and today, so no one was left out of the party.  The happy couple is now headed off for a romantic honeymoon in Jackson Hole, Wyoming to enjoy the success of their epic wedding day.

Julie and Brian (Mayernik Center)

Weddings are fun at any time of year, but there’s something special to me about Fall weddings, when the air is cool and the scenery is so beautiful.  The Mayernik Center at Avonworth Community Park provided a beautiful backdrop for Julie and Brian’s ceremony and reception on one of the most beautiful days of the year.

Nicole and Matt (12 Oaks Mansion)

As a DJ, I tend to talk a lot about the fun and dancing portion of wedding receptions, but many times I’m fortunate enough to be a part of the actual ceremony.  I love being able to provide sound and music for the most important time of couple’s special day.  Nicole and Matt did a fantastic job choosing music to include in their ceremony that fit their style perfectly.

Johnna and Joseph (Sheraton Airport)

Many soon-to-be-married couples spend lots of time figuring out what they will give to those who attend their wedding.  While the favors, hor d’oeuvres and special music selections are all very important, the best gift for your guests is giving them a good reason to come together and be part of a once-in-a-lifetime celebration.  Johnna and Joe’s wedding was perfectly planned so everyone could enjoy a day of joy and happiness with family and lifelong friends.
