Greek Orthodox Social Hall

Located alongside the parish in the South Hills, Greek Orthodox Social Hall offers a reception space that feels rooted in tradition while still providing a wide-open setting for a full celebration. The hall is designed to accommodate larger gatherings comfortably, making it well suited for weddings that bring together extended family and community.
The ballroom supports dinner service and a generous dance floor, with proportions that keep introductions and toasts visually centered. Its open layout allows energy to build naturally once dancing begins, while still maintaining clear sightlines across the room.
Because of the room’s size and depth, thoughtful sound placement ensures music and spoken moments carry clearly throughout the space. When coordinated well, the reception transitions smoothly from formal traditions into a lively, full dance floor.
Below is a look at how a wedding at the Greek Orthodox Social Hall comes together once guests gather and the celebration begins.

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 making sure the guests aren’t anxiously waiting for something to happen.  This weekend I was part of a fabulous wedding, which included many details that fit perfectly together to make Kristi Tamayko and Andor Dietz’s one I’ll never forget.

Tamayko Dietz Wedding

The reception was held at the Greek Orthodox Social Hall in Oakmont, PA.  The choice of Fall seasonal colors made the venue look beautiful and elegant.

This may have been the largest chocolate candy buffet I’ve ever seen!

Kristi and Andor’s musical choices were fun and varied.  They even allowed guests to make requests on their RSVPs, which gave me lots to choose from to keep the dance floor moving.

After the newlyweds visited with every one of their guests (they were troopers!), it was time for their romantic first dance.

Everything ran so smoothly, that there were still over two hours for their guests to jump up and celebrate!

Right before the guests headed outside for a sparkler send off, they gathered on the dance floor for a sing along to Garth Brook’s “Friends In Low Places”.  Kristi and Andor had an amazing reception, which included tons of details and special moments, but also allowed them to enjoy quality time with all of their favorite people, which truly is perfect.
