Amy & Kirk - May 14

This past Saturday I provided DJ service and up lighting for Amy and Kirk at the Duquesne Power Center in Pittsburgh. I got an email from Amy and Kirk the day after their reception that I will share here.

Tracy!!! Couldn't have asked for a better DJ! You went above and beyond with music and lighting!! Thank you soooo much for everything!!!!!!!! YOU WERE AWESOME!

It's always nice to get great feedback from a couple that you have worked worked with. It's especially gratifying to hear from them so soon after the wedding.

Here are a couple of images from the wedding. Both of these images are stills from the video that we shot. In a few weeks we will have a sample video from this wedding on line.

This second shot highlights the up lighting that I set up for Amy and Kirk. This was the first time that I provided up lighting at the Power Center and even with all of the windows, the lighting still looked great!

Amy and Kirk wanted a contemporary mix of music for the dancing portion of their evening and the guests loved it. The floor was packed all night! I'll have a highlight video of the reception on this blog in a couple of weeks. So check back to view the all the fun.

Pittsburgh DJ - Erin & Ian 1/8/10

When I had my pre-wedding day consultation (which is a standard feature of our Pittsburgh DJ service) with Erin and Ian they told my both of their families and all of their friends liked to party. They were right! The dance floor was packed all night.

The bride and groom wanted a nice mix of older wedding classics and new dance music. This provided an opportunity for everyone to hear and dance to some of their personal favorites.

The couple and the bridal party entered the ballroom at the Crown Plaza Pittsburgh South to Jay Sean's "Down" and immediately proceeded with the blessing and toasts. During dinner I played a mix of adult contemporary and songs from jazz singers like Michael Bubble and Frank Sinatra.

Erin and Ian shared their first dance together to the song, "You Are Everything" by Matthew West. For the father daughter dance Erin chose "The Way You Look Tonight" by Frank Sinatra. Ian chose "What a Wonderful World" by Louie Armstrong for the dance with his mother.

They were a great couple to work with and all of the staff at Entertainment Tonite wish them the best of luck!
