When it comes to celebrating love, Claire and Shane took things to the next level with their incredible fall wedding at the MuseumLab in Pittsburgh. This stylish couple didn’t just focus on the details of their day—they made it a point to embrace everyone involved, from the family and friends who gathered to celebrate, to each vendor who helped make their vision come to life. As their DJ, I couldn’t have felt more appreciated, and their kindness added something truly special to every moment of the night.

From the start, Claire and Shane were a dream to work with. They made all of us vendors feel not just like hired professionals but like part of the family. Their gratitude and warmth extended to the photographer, wedding planner, MuseumLab staff, and me as the DJ, and that energy was contagious. It’s not every day that you find a couple who puts so much thought into making their team feel valued, and it truly set the tone for an unforgettable night.

The MuseumLab itself was the perfect venue for their unique style. With its stunning mix of modern aesthetics and historical charm, the space effortlessly reflected Claire and Shane’s vibe. Their guest list of about 75 close friends and family fit perfectly in the venue’s beautiful industrial space, and the ambiance felt both intimate and grand. I had the honor of providing mics and music for each part of the celebration—ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing—and even set up uplighting to add that extra touch of warmth to the space.

Their playlist was a blend of soulful classics and fun, and modern tunes. It was the perfect mix for a crowd that wanted to celebrate love in style, and every guest—regardless of age—found something to get down to on the dance floor. The vibe stayed light and upbeat, with an energy that kept building as the night went on.

The real magic happened when it was time for the last dance. After an night of dancing with their friends and family, Claire and Shane shared a private last dance to “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” by Frankie Valli. As they swayed together one last time, friends and family gathered at the bottom of the stairway, singing along with full hearts. It was one of those moments that gives you chills—the love in that room was undeniable, and it felt like the perfect way to close out a night filled with joy and gratitude.

Claire and Shane’s wedding at the MuseumLab reminded me why I love doing what I do. With their kindness, appreciation, and focus on bringing people together, they created a wedding day that was as memorable for the vendors as it was for their guests.

Cheers to Claire and Shane for an incredible night, and for showing us all that a wedding day can be filled with love, gratitude, and a touch of magic.
