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.

Kimly and James (Lexus Club Wedding)

Kimly and James’ reception was held at the beautiful Lexus Club @ PNC Park.  They did an amazing job putting together a celebration that would be contemporary, but still include a variety of special traditions which made theirs a day like no other.

I was thrilled to be able to help customize the dining room with uplighting of blue, purple and pink.

Kimly and James each included some ethnic traditions to make the evening even more special.   As part of a Vietnamese tradition, the newlyweds and their families went to every table and shared a toast.  Kimly even changed into a stunning special outfit for this special time.  There was also a money dance that was done to all Greek music.  I loved the inclusion of these events!

The music for the dancing portion of the evening was a perfect match for the happy couple and their fun and wild group of friends and family.  As the night came to a close, Kimly and James were surrounded by their guests as everyone cheered and clapped.  They had created a perfect elegant and modern evening that no one will forget.

Erin and Mark (Pittsburgh Athletic Association)

When planning the schedule for your reception, it’s the subtle things that can have the biggest impact.  Erin and Mark did a masterful job planning the events for the their special day at the Pittsburgh Athletic Association in Oakland.  Both the way their reception began and ended allowed them to have the perfect wedding day with their friends and family.

The newlyweds took the time between cocktails and the reception to include a receiving line.  This gave the chance to greet all their guests individually and saved them lots of time after dinner.  After all of the fun of the celebration, everyone was invited downstairs to the PAA’s bowling alley for a unique and fun-filled after party.


It was such a pleasure to work with Erin and Mark, who had a great vision for the their wedding day, and I was so happy to see it turn out so perfectly.  The couple now gets to enjoy what I’m sure will be an amazing honeymoon in Curaçao.
