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.

Laura + Roger (Ramada Greensburg Wedding DJ)

Some couples have to worry if their friends and family will be the type that will get up and join in the wedding celebration.  Some groups can be more timid when it comes time to dance.  Laura and Roger knew they would have nothing to worry about for their elegant and fun-filled reception at the Ramada Greensburg Hotel and Conference Center.

The newlyweds had me provide uplighting and a customized monogram to make the large ballroom even more beautiful.  We used candlelight colors for cocktails/dinner and later changed them to pink for the rest of the party.

From the moment it was time to dance, all of Laura and Roger’s guests were letting loose and singing along to a great variety of music from the 60’s to today’s hits.

The happy couple provided me with excellent song suggestions which matched perfectly to their friends and family.  At the end of the night the ballroom was still full of people ready to join the newlyweds for an after party.  Laura and Roger planned an evening that everyone could enjoy, and now they get to relax for a while on their honeymoon in Florida.

Ashlie and Elmo (Doubletree by Hilton Wedding)

Putting the details into the decor at your venue can be intimidating.  There are so many options to choose from to transform a ballroom into the perfect location for your once in a lifetime celebration.  Ashlie and Elmo created a gorgeous and elegant atmosphere for their reception at the Doubletree at the Meadow Lands.

Everything from the table settings, decorations and lighting were beautiful in the large ballroom at the Doubletree.  I was happy I could help by providing uplighting and a monogram.

Ashlie and Elmo started off their evening with a wonderfully choreographed dance to Luke Bryan’s “Drunk On You”.  I love when couples take on the challenge to do something special like this for their first dance.

The wedding guests enjoyed a great selection of music throughout the wonderful day of celebrating.  When it was time to dance, guests were treated to a wide variety of music that included everything from the 50’s to today’s biggest hits.  Elmo and Ashlie’s friends and family were thrilled to get out and party with the newlyweds.  The happy couple is now headed off to St. Lucia for a well earned honeymoon.

Jamie and John (St. Thomas More Wedding)

While I encourage all the couples I work with to customize the music for their celebration as much as they wish, it’s always fun for me when a couple allows me to use my experience to help create the perfect soundtrack for their big day.  Jamie and John trusted me to take their overall guidance and choose a good portion of the songs that had their guests dancing and singing on a perfect spring day at St. Thomas More in Bethel Park, PA.

I was able to provide uplighting and a monogram, which made the Family Life Center at St. Thomas More truly customized for Jamie and John.

The newlyweds’ friends and family had clearly come to celebrate.  The moment it was time to dance everyone was on their feet and getting wild.  Guests made fun requests which were a big hit with everyone who was excited to be part of Jamie and John’s special celebration.  The happy couple are now headed off for their romantic honeymoon in St. Thomas.

Jaimie and Pete (Chestnut Ridge Golf Resort Wedding)

Planning a wedding can be stressful, tiring, and downright frustrating.  Jaimie and Pete didn’t seem to be bothered by any of those things and were calm and relaxed while preparing and enjoying their fun-filled day held at the elegant Chestnut Ridge Golf Resort in Blairsville, PA.

The outdoor pavilion provided a wonderful spot for them to exchange their vows.  Even though the day had started with a little snow, the weather warmed up so guests could enjoy a fantastic, clear day.  Afterwards guests were invited to the ballroom, which was beautifully decorated.  I was happy I could provide the purple uplighting which made things look even better.

The day was filled with special touches and memorable moments.  When it was time to start dancing, everyone was quick to join in the celebration.  The dance floor remained the place to be for almost 4 hours!  Jaimie and Pete’s great, relaxed attitude allowed them to focus on enjoying this once-in-a-lifetime occasion, and to create memories that will last forever.
