We had a blast with Megan, Mike, and their guests. We planned a fun evening, and let me tell you, it was spectacular. The dance floor was packed from beginning to end!

Beth and Pete chose the Beaver Valley Golf Club to host their reception. It’s always a pleasure when I get to work a venue for the first time, and the Beaver Valley Golf Club didn’t let me down.

I always love working at the PAA. Ashley and Michael had a beautiful Friday night wedding, and I was glad to be a part of it. Their guests were ready to have a fun night, and we sure had it!

Reception Location: LeMont

- Video Coming Soon -

The LeMont has, without question, one of the finest views of the Pittsburgh skyline in the entire city. It’s always fun to work on Mt. Washington with such a great backdrop, and Erica and Brian’s wedding was no exception.

Reception Location: The Timberhouse at Rolling Acres

- Video Coming Soon -

This was our first time at the Timberhouse, and I loved it. In addition to the reception, we also provided ceremony sound services on the outdoor deck. It was a great setup, and although rain was a potential threat, it held off just long enough for the ceremony to happen.

Check out the photos!

Reception Location: Valleybrook County Club

Laura and Matt chose the beautiful Valleybrook Country Club as the location for their reception. It was a hot, sunny June day… and we had a great party!

Here are a few photos of our setup.

Loved the ice sculpture, complete with fresh shrimp.

And the cake.

Here we have the first dance!

And the parent dances.

And this is what a fantastic crowd looks like.

Reception Location: Whitehall House in Louisville, Kentucky

I’m often questioned as to whether or not we travel outside of the Pittsburgh/tri-state area. The answer is, yes! In fact, we love to travel.

This weekend I had the pleasure of working a wedding in Louisville, Kentucky with a good friend of mine, Eric Woodland. Tristan, another good friend and one of my main guys here at Zini Productions, and I both made the trip to Louisville for the weekend.

The wedding reception was held in a beautiful, old southern-charmed house called the Whitehall House, and the ceremony was outside on a side patio. It was a hot day, but it was great weather for a wedding. The crowd was fun and definitely enjoyed themselves. It’s always a good time when I have the opportunity to work with Eric.

Check out Eric (also famously known as “DJ Woody”) and myself working the crowd:

And here is a quick pic that was snapped before Tristan and I left. That’s Tristan on the left, Eric in the middle, and myself on the right.

Reception Location: Holiday Inn Meadowlands

Cynthia and Lee not only gave us the opportunity to provide the DJ entertainment at their reception, but they also hired us for our new photography services. They chose to have a small, elegant ceremony and reception at the Holiday Inn Meadowlands.

Because everything was done right on-site at the Holiday Inn, we provided a sound system and music for the ceremony, which was in a separate area from the reception ballroom. We used one of our new, ultra-sleek and compact Bose sound sticks for the ceremony. I’ve been purchasing and investing in sound equipment for over 10 years, and I have to say, these things continue to amaze me every time we use them. Using this technology, we can balance the sound perfectly within the ceremony room, without “overpowering” any one particular area. Additionally, it looks extremely clean and professional.

Here is a photo from the front looking back:

Now, look closely in the right rear of the room. You can see our single Bose system… it sounded incredible in this room:

Here is a closer shot of the Bose stick:

Here is another photo of the ceremony room, this time it’s taken from the back:

The following are sample photos from our pro photographer Matt:

Finally, here are a few photos from the reception!

Reception Location: St. George Hall

Kimberly and Jordan had an extremely fun wedding at the St. George Hall. This was my first time at the St. George Hall, and it’s a beautiful, unique room. The high ceiling and the two large chandeliers really made the room a great space.

Here are some photos of the room setup.

Kimberly and Jordan’s first dance.

Parent dances.

And here we go!

Reception Location: Twelve Oaks Mansion

Hillary and Matt chose the Twelve Oaks Mansion to host their reception, and as I said in my post from my wedding two weeks ago (that was also held at the Twelve Oaks Mansion), this is truly a great venue!

I had an absolute blast with my guests this week. The dance floor was packed all night, and I gotta say, we sure had some spectacular dancers (but that’s no surprise when you have the Garretson brothers on the floor!). Check out the below pics… they speak for themselves.

Here is a picture of Hillary and myself!
