Ashley and Garrett (The Barn at Maple Falls Wedding)

Most of the weddings I get to DJ are for couples who I’ve met soon after their engagement. It’s fun to get to hear their stories of how they met and made the huge decision to get married. Having known Ashley for many years, I had the unique opportunity to watch (via social media) as her and Garrett’s relationship began and grew. I was thrilled when they asked me to be a part of their epic celebration held at the Barn at Maple Falls in Rockwood, PA.

While a relatively newer wedding venue, I can’t picture a better location for Ashley and Garrett to hold their ceremony and reception. With so many beautiful locations throughout the property, guests were able to relax and have a fantastic day while celebrating with the newlyweds. Garrett clearly loved the venue so much that he crafted a custom card box identical to the barn itself!

Ashley and Garrett let their guests control most of the dance music, which resulted in a dance party that included amazing songs from both yesterday and today! The excitement on the dance floor was contagious and completely unforgettable. I loved getting to be there to see how happy the newlyweds were when surrounded by all their favorite people. After so much partying, Ashely & Garrett headed off for well-deserved Vegas honeymoon.

Cady and Adam (George Washington Hotel Wedding)

While every wedding features beautiful decor and special touches, the receptions I find most memorable are the ones where the couple includes unique details that are truly a reflection of their style and tastes. Cady and Adam’s big day was one that featured customized choices that I’m sure their guests will never forget.

Their ceremony and reception were held at the historic and gorgeous George Washington Hotel in Washington, PA. Guests were treated to homemade maple syrup AND a cupcake/popcorn bar. Of course, I LOVED the custom Mickey & Minnie Mouse cake topper!

I had a blast working with Cady and Adam. I could tell that their fun and relaxed demeanor would lead to a fun evening of dancing, singing and just being a little silly. Their guests joined in for a playlist featuring some amazing music from yesterday and today. I’m so glad I was able to play a part of such a beautiful celebration!

Laura and Charlie (The White Barn Wedding)

One of the great things about weddings is that those closest to you will be as excited as you are for the big day. It also means that those same people will step up to help you to ensure that everything turns out wonderfully. Laura and Charlie had an amazing group supporting them as they celebrated their love at The White Barn in Prospect, PA.

The White Barn looked amazing and offered lots of different spaces for the guests to enjoy the ceremony, cocktails, dinner and lots and lots of dancing!

I was fortunate enough to be the DJ at Laura’s sister’s wedding 10 years ago, so I knew this was going to be a fabulous celebration with a fun group of super friendly people. Both Laura and Charlie’s family and friends joined in to dance and sing all night long. The happy couple now gets to prepare for a VERY well-deserved honeymoon later this year in the Florida Keys.

Maci and Adam (The Haskell House Wedding Reception)

I tell people quite frequently that being a wedding DJ is the best job ever. 2021 has made me see how true that statement is more than ever before. After spending time alone for the past year and a half, wedding guests are more excited than ever to gather for a real celebration and to laugh, hug and get a little wild with their friends and family. This was definitely the case for Maci and Adam at their totally epic party held at the Haskell House in downtown Clarion, PA.

This was the first wedding held at this beautiful venue. Maci and Adam’s closest friends and family helped them add tons of special touches everywhere, which added some wonderful personality to the already stunning space. Once dinner was over, guests wasted no time moving a few tables for what would be one of the most fun dance floors I’ve ever seen.

The guest’s excitement grew throughout the evening and there were wild cheers as each new song began. Everyone’s love and happiness for Maci and Adam was obvious as they were consistently lifted in the air throughout the night. After getting to spend so much time with their favorite people, the happy couple now gets to head off for a little non-quarantine alone time on their Hawaiian honeymoon.

Patty and Jack (Chapel Valley Estate Wedding Reception)

This year I’ve been talking a lot about couples who have needed to adapt quickly when wedding plans suddenly have to change.  Patty and Jack handled their change in venues perfectly to accommodate their large guest list and have a day that really showed the importance of spending time with family and friends.  They were able to hold their reception at the beautiful Chapel Valley Estate in an outdoor tent and I can’t imagine a more perfect location for their epic party.

No amount of cold or rain could keep anyone’s spirits down.  All of Patty and Jack’s guests were clearly thrilled to be together to celebrate with the newlyweds.

While every aspect of your wedding day is important, nothing matters more than the opportunity to be surrounded by those who have meant the most to you during your life. I was thrilled that Patty and Jack made sure their day was one that included all of their favorite people for a once-in-a-lifetime celebration!
