Kudos to Ruth and Gregory! Being in my 7th year as a wedding DJ, it’s not too often I see “firsts” anymore, but they managed to score themselves a few of them! Find out how their wedding was different — and check out song picks and photos — in this blog post.
One of my favorite perks of being a wedding DJ is getting to explore the region. I’ve heard of Greene before, but never had occasion to visit until Liz and Nakul’s wedding at Gabriella’s Manor. Perfect day for an outdoor ceremony, followed by an indoor reception featuring some exquisite decorations. Check out the photos in this blog post!

Danielle and Brandon couldn’t have asked for a better day for an outdoor wedding ceremony! Clear skies and comfortable temperatures made for a great day at Timber Banks Golf Course in Baldwinsville. For the ceremony, everyone moved inside to the “Wedding and Event Center.” As always, I’ve got photos, song selections and some “DJ perspective” on the event.
My third wedding of 2017 brought me to my second new venue of the year. Although I’ve driven by The Rusty Rail in Canastota many times, Lindsay and Ryan’s wedding reception presented my first chance to visit. As always, I’ve got photos, music selections and more in my latest blog post.
I know “time flies when you’re having fun” is cliché, but that’s exactly how I felt at Erica and Grant’s wedding reception at the Genesee Grande Ballroom inside the Collegian Hotel and Suites in Syracuse last weekend. My second wedding of 2017 also featured the début of some brand new equipment I purchased over the winter. (more…)
Had an absolute blast playing Arthur and Evan’s wedding this past weekend in the Persian Terrace ballroom at the Marriott Syracuse Downtown. Not only was the wedding lots of fun, but it crossed-off two big items from my “never have I ever” list as a wedding DJ. Check out the full post to find out what was unique about this wedding, see some photos, and which songs the pair selected for the key moments of their special day!
A strong finish for my 2016 wedding season! Meghan and Matt invited friends and family to celebrate at the scenic Wolf Oak Acres in Oneida, my second wedding there this year. Although rainy weather altered the plans for my previous wedding here (in August), Meghan and Matt enjoyed a picture-perfect day. Two sound systems seamlessly covered three locations — I’ll explain how and share some of my favorite photos inside this blog post.
Theresa and Kyle’s wedding took me to Daniele’s Banquet Specialists on Seneca Turnpike in New Hartford. It’s just a few miles outside of Utica, right up the hill from “Jay-K Corners.” Theresa and Kyle live about halfway between Utica and Albany, so we didn’t have a chance to meet until the reception. But that’s nothing new for me — I’ve worked with many out-of-town couples before. Detailed communication via email and telephone is key to help everything go according to plan!
Although my 2016 wedding season has ended, I continue to catch up with the memories here on my blog. We had a great time at Caitlin and Martin’s wedding ceremony and reception, split between two different locations in Cazenovia, a short drive southeast of Syracuse. The outdoor ceremony narrowly dodged passing rain showers and dance floor was packed for the entire reception! (more…)
As I continue to catch-up on my 2016 wedding season blogging, I can’t believe it’s already been a whole month since Michelle and John’s wedding reception! They had a beautiful fall day to celebrate at Twin Ponds Golf and Country Club in New York Mills, just outside of Utica. For this reception, I provided sound in two separate areas, along with dance floor lighting and uplighting. Keep reading this blog post for photos, song ideas and more! (more…)
