Georgene & Paul (Sieb’s Banquet Wedding DJ)

I believe most people would like to feel they could remain flexible about the details of their wedding day. Some folks can get caught up in making their day so perfect they forget to enjoy the time with their friends and family. Everyone could learn so much about this from Georgene Gillespie and Paul Michalka, who held their reception at Sieb’s Banquet Facility outside of Pittsburgh, PA.

Georgene and Paul found some adorable ways to give their guests a little fun during the reception including a classic typewriter and some wedding Mad Libs! What fantastic ideas!

The newlyweds had a great time picking out a wide variety of awesome music for the reception. They also gave me complete freedom to figure out the best way to work with their selections to keep the evening moving along perfectly.

I was anxious to see Georgene and Paul’s first dance, which was choreographed to Paul McCartney’s “Silly Love Songs”. They did such a fantastic job!

When dinner was finished the guests crowded the floor with Terrible Towels to get the celebration started!

Throughout the time I worked with these two amazing people, they never lost site of how much they wanted to plan a day that would be fun and memorable for all of the guests. As everyone crowded the dance floor cheering for the last song, it was clear they had gotten everything they had wanted. The newlyweds are now off for their next adventure as they honeymoon in Ireland.

Featured on Meaghan Elliott Photography

This past New Year’s I had the privilege of playing at an amazing wedding at the Sheraton, Station Square. At the reception, I had the best time working with an awesomely talented photographer, Meaghan Elliott. Meaghan recently moved to Pittsburgh and has quickly started to embrace life in the ‘burgh. Her great work, professionalism, and outgoing personality should quickly make her one of the area’s most sought after photographers.

When she contacted me about providing some answers to some very interesting DJ questions for her blog, I was happy to oblige. She even included some photos of me loving what I do.

Check out the entire interview on Meaghan’s blog.

Be sure to see all of Meaghan’s fantastic work on her website.

Pittsburgh Magazine featured another fantastic 2011 wedding where I was the DJ on both their website and their most recent print issue. The wedding of Laura Kiley and Zachary Cataldi was included in their 15 Real Pittsburgh Weddings section. This is the second time this amazing celebration has been showcased online since soon after the wedding there were pictures on Perez Hilton!

Rachel and Robb (DoubleTree Hotel Wedding DJ)

Most people assume that DJs are only excited to perform at huge events. Personally I find there is something special about being asked to provide music for smaller, more intimate wedding receptions. Rachael Keene and Robb Poore allowed me to be part of their special day held at the DoubleTree Hotel in Greentree, PA just outside of Pittsburgh.

One of the DoubleTree’s beautiful banquet rooms was prepared to receive the newlyweds’ friends and family after the ceremony.

One of the fun parts of DJing for a smaller group is that you really get a chance to play songs for everyone. Rachel and Robb allowed tons of flexibility in their playlist to be sure to keep the fun going late into the evening.

Rachel and Robb’s first dance was sweet and romantic.

After dinner it was time to relax and get a little crazy!

I’ve had the pleasure of living across the street from the Keene’s, and was so excited to be part of this celebration. After Rachel’s parents had a special dance, all the kids surrounded them for a giant hug. This has to be my favorite moment of the entire day!

A few hotel workers questioned how late the reception might go considering the amount of guests. I assured them that it was going to be a fun and wild celebration, and it certainly was. After an hour or so past the original ending time, it was time to say goodnight. Rachel and Robb’s romantic wedding reception gave them plenty of time to visit with each of their guests, which made this day even more special for everyone.
