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.

Brittany and Jorden (Harrison Room Wedding DJ)

Some couples shy away from using newer music as part of their wedding reception. I find that while it’s great to have music that appeals to all of your guests, it’s also important to use the music that you know your closest friends will really enjoy. Brittany and Jorden chose a great variety of songs for their wonderful reception at the Harrison Room in Harrison City, PA.

The Harrison Room was fantastically decorated, but I’ll have to say my favorite area was the customized photo booth area with decorations and props. What a brilliant idea!

Brittany and Jorden’s entire day went so smoothly, it was great to see things come along ahead of schedule. This meant we were able to get the party started even earlier than we had planned!

Once it was time to dance, the happy couple’s friends and family enjoyed a great mix of music, including some wedding classics. As the evening progressed, I was able to play some very new tracks, which kept the newlyweds and their friends very happy. Brittany and Jorden are now off to the Riviera Maya for some much deserved time together.

Kristen and Charles (Embassy Suites Wedding DJ)

Family always plays a huge part in the planning and execution of every wedding. Some folks try and try to keep that involvement to a minimum, while others embrace the fun of having everyone be included in the big day. Kristen and Charles made their reception at the Embassy Suites in Moon Township one that everyone from ages 1 to 100 would enjoy.

The ballroom at the Embassy Suites looked amazing with gold and pink colors. I was able to provide uplighting for the large room, which helped create the perfect atmosphere for the celebration.

Kristen and Charle’s reception was beautiful and elegant, but also allowed for families with children to stay and party right along with the adults. Everyone joined in and sang and danced all the way until 1AM! The newlyweds are now headed off to Jamaica for some time away on their romantic honeymoon.
