Wedding: Natalie and Benjamin at Turning Stone's Shenandoah Clubhouse, Verona, 4/29/23

Even though I've done a few weddings at Turning Stone Casino before, this was my first at the resort's Shenandoah Clubhouse, which is an entirely separate building from the main casino complex. The elegant building overlooking the golf course was a perfect backdrop for Natalie and Benjamin's big day!

Wedding: Rachael and Jeffrey at Marriott Syracuse Downtown Grand Ballroom, 3/18/23

My 2023 wedding season is underway! After the relatively mild winter we had, I don't think anyone was expecting waves of lake effect snow on Rachael and Jeffrey's mid-March wedding day. But if there's one place to watch the snow, it's from the huge windows of the Grand Ballroom on the 10th floor of the Marriott Syracuse Downtown!

Wedding: Grace and Chris at Sherwood Inn, Skaneateles, 10/15/22

My 2022 wedding season wrapped up with a return to a familiar venue, the Sherwood Inn, located in Skaneateles, across the street from the lake that bears the same name as the village. Although I've performed a handful of wedding receptions at the Sherwood Inn, this was my first couple who also held their ceremony on the property. Details inside this blog post!

Inside this blog post, I've got photos, song selections and how I had to "MacGuyver" my way through part of the day.

Wedding: Kim & Ben at Daniluk Farm & Stables, Camillus, 9/10/22

Daniluk Farm and Stables is -- as the name implies -- primarily a farm that also provides stabling and other equestrian services. It's usually not a wedding venue, but when it's the owners who are getting married, exceptions can be made!

Wedding: Sherri and Brian at Springside Farm, Pompey, 6/26/22

Springside Farm in Pompey was the perfect venue for Sherri and Brian's intimate wedding reception. You might know this farm along Route 91 for family fun in the fall and Christmas trees in the winter. But during the summer, the barn serves as a spacious rustic venue surrounded by fields of green.

Wedding: Sarah and Ryan at Sinclair of Skaneateles, 4/16/22

My first wedding DJ committment for 2022 was also my first ever at the Sinclair of Skaneateles.

Fayetteville-Manlius High School's 2022 Dance Marathon, 3/19/22

One of the biggest events at F-M High School is the annual Dance Marathon to raise money for Camp Good Days and Special Times. As a parent of two (and soon to be three) kids in the F-M school district, it was an honor to be asked and a pleasure to donate my time to spin the tunes for the 2022 event! The thrill was even bigger when the final dollar total was announced...
