Kathryn and Andrew (Doubletree by Hilton Wedding DJ)

Every couple has to decide what part their families will play in the preparation of their wedding day. Some couples work hard to keep their closest family members as far away as possible from influencing their plans. Katy and Andrew chose instead to have their parents play a major role in their beautiful and elegant reception held at the Doubletree by Hilton in Washington, PA.

Doubletree Meadow Lands-6

The ballroom at the Doubletree looked spectacular, and was filled with customized Fall weddingdetails, which added to the warm and friendly tone of the reception.

Katy and Andrew, along with their families, provided excellent music choices, which contained enough variety to please all of their guests. Their friends and family were quick to join them on the dance floor and join in the celebration of the newlyweds and their new life together. The happy couple is now off to Florida’s most family friendly honeymoon spots for some well-deserved time together in Disney World and Universal Studios.

Samantha and Gregory (Anchor Village Wedding DJ)

Surprises on your wedding day can go either way. Some couples love the idea, while others want to avoid any type of unplanned event happening during their big day. Samantha and Greg planned a little surprise of their own, which turned out perfectly, for their wonderful celebration held at Anchor Village in Shippenville, PA.

Samantha wanted to surprise her father with a special song for their dance, so she had instructed me to play that song no matter what her dad would request. Turns out when her father called me, he chose the exact same song Sam had chosen special for him (Bruce Springsteen’s “When I Need You”). Clearly these two both were thinking on the same page, and the shock on her dad’s face when he found out was completely priceless!

One thing that wasn’t a surprise was how much fun all of the newlyweds’ friends and family had that night. Dance music lasted for well over 3 hours as everyone made room to dance, sing and celebrate! The happy couple are now off to Mexico for a romantic and relaxing honeymoon.

Kacie and Trevor (Embassy Suites Hotel Wedding DJ)

A big challenge for couples can be trying to figure out how to get as many of their guests to stay at the reception for as long as possible. As a DJ, I try to make sure I play a wide variety of music to make sure all the guests enjoy the evening and stick around to dance and celebrate. Kacie and Trevor included some extra special events ] to keep many of their guests involved til the very end at their reception at the Embassy Suites in Moon Township.

Their wedding reception had so many special touches that reflected the couple’s styles and hobbies, but the most popular had to be the Euchre tournament which ran throughout the evening. Guests battled it out for a chance to play against the newlyweds. Kacie and Trevor had also included some subtle details at the reception, my favorite would be the special flowers in the bouquets that were made from the pages of a Harry Potter book!

I love couples who spend the time finding ways to share parts of themselves with their guests, but I don’t know if I’ve ever had the chance to work with a couple with such unique and inventive ideas. Their friends and family were treated to a celebration like no other!

Meghan and Carl (South Hills Country Club Wedding DJ)

There’s something special about Fall weddings in Pittsburgh. It’s such a beautiful time of year to get married with such rich colors and, in most cases, fantastic weather. Meghan and Carl embraced all that was wonderful about this time of year for their fun-filled reception held at the South Hills County Club in Pittsburgh, PA.

The Country Club was decked out with perfect decorations for Fall. I was able to help add to the decor by providing uplighting in orange, red, yellow and, later in the night, some purple colors. My favorite touch was the table seating cards, which were actually tiny pumpkins!

Meghan and Carl, as well as their guests, crowded the dance floor all night long. They were such a fun group that really enjoyed dancing to a fantastic variety of music from the 50’s until today. They especially enjoyed some great 80’s and 90’s hits that I haven’t gotten to play in a long time. The newlyweds are now headed off to Punta Cana for a well-deserved honeymoon.

Catherine and Aaron (Slippery Rock University Wedding)

I’ve worked with some amazingly fun and creative couples over my DJ career. I believe a new standard has been set for creativity at the reception of Catherine and Aaron. Their fall wedding was held at their Alma Mater, Slippery Rock University, in the ballroom at the Robert M. Smith Student Center.

I was truly impressed by the fantastic decor and favors that Catherine and Aaron chose for the reception. My favorite had to be the customized sunglasses! I was able to provide a monogram and uplighting for the ballroom.

The newlyweds’ guests knew they were in for a fun evening as the couple kicked off the party with an awesome first dance! I helped them create a great mix that ended with some fun choreography to Walk The Moon’s “Shut Up and Dance”! When it was time, all of their family and friends did just that. The dance floor was the place to be for almost 4 hours!

I had a blast working with Catherine and Aaron, and was completely thrilled to be part of their celebration. This hard working couple is now off to relax and enjoy some alone time on their romantic Jamaican honeymoon.

Renee and Mark (Stratigos Banquet Centre DJ)

Let’s face it, some groups just know how to party. They know how to let loose and enjoy an opportunity to be with friends and family and enjoy every moment. Renee and Mark created the perfect reception, and their guests were ready to be part of the epic celebration at Stratigos Banquet Centre in North Huntingdon, PA.

The ballroom was beautifully decorated with customized details, but the most eye-catching was the huge cookie table.

I was the DJ for TWO of Mark and Renee’s friends’ weddings. I knew with them attending it would be a fantastic evening.

Once it was time to dance, guests of all ages came to the dance floor and got a little wild. Guests of all ages were dancing to songs no matter how new or old. Renee and Mark’s wedding reception is one I know I’ll never forget. The newlyweds are now off for their own private celebration on their honeymoon in Punta Cana.
