So many great weddings already this year! Super fun crowd this weekend at @charleskrugweddings in St. Helena. No filter on this one… our uplights really made the architecture pop, and the dance floor lights added a little pizzazz to Chris & Niki’s dance party. Great vendor team… great celebration! #winecountrywedding #winecountrydj #winecountrydjs #goodsoundadvice #ourkindofparty #winerywedding #uplighting
I love the view from my corner… every weekend. “A little bit louder now!” What a day… great vendor crew (I see you, @hanleighphoto snapping the action! Lol…), stunning location, intense celebration and the nicest couple to work with. This is what keeps us coming back… #tahoewedding #tahoeweddings #tahoeweddingdj #werockdancefloors #mykindofparty #weddingdj #weddingdjs #weddingdjlife #goodsoundadvice😎💪✌💯
Sometimes we have the best seat in the house. Like last month, when a father arranged for Grammy (and 4-time Dove) Award Winning Artist Bob Carlisle to show up (unbeknownst to his daughter) to sing their father-daughter song LIVE! Thrilled to be part of making this kind of moment happen. #GoodSoundAdvice #WeddingDJLife #winecountrywedding #winecountryweddings #weddingdj
We were able to get the chemistry grad students up and dancing... even on a cold January night in Tahoe. Super nice group... small but fun party at their retreat @granlibakken #mammamia #mykindofparty #werockdancefloors #goodsoundadvice #weddingdjlife #weddingdj #tahoedj #laketahoe #laketahoewedding #laketahoelife #tahoewedding
We were tempted to send this clip in to America’s Funniest Home Videos! Lol...
Just happened to catch this special dance floor moment... thankfully our bride was not hurt.
Being entertained by Strangely Doesburg at the Reno High Desert Steam Steampunk Expo... we are running sound for the event for the second year. Looking forward to the Ball tonight... should be fun. We’re going to uplight the room with some of our new uplights and see how it looks!
The barrel room @flyingcloudfarm already looks great, but it looked even better with uplights on the columns and some dance party lights! A fun time with a smaller group last Friday... we ate, we drank... we played games and danced! And most importantly, Wilson and Vivian got married!
When your officiant (and the bride’s little sister) quotes a classic rock song.... that’s OUR kind of ceremony! #countdowntocornett #winecountrywedding #winecountryweddings #weddingdj #weddingdjs #mykindofparty #werockdancefloors #goodsoundadvice #weddingdjlife #sonomawedding #healdsburgwedding #geyservillewedding #geyservillerocks
Sorry to geek out a little bit on equipment setup... I know that most of my clients don’t care about this kind of detail, just as long as it sounds good. That being said, these are the kinds of things that we think about so our client doesn’t have to.
There are lots of considerations with each wedding set up. In this case, power was one we had to manage. There was enough power (3 separate circuits), but it was important to allocate it properly so nothing was overloaded. So in addition to setting up my own equipment, I did some load testing and ran an extra extension cord for the photobooth folks to use....
Putting my subwoofer outside the tent worked really well... kept the setup inside clean and minimalist, while concentrating the sound right on the dance floor. Often I put the sub under my DJ table... but since I was back in the corner, doing so would have made the bass extra loud for the people sitting close to me, and would not have balance well with the other frequencies on the dance floor.
Spent a little time a few weeks ago with Samantha and Matthew in the studio... gave them a few pointers for their first dance. At their wedding this last Thursday, they totally nailed the dip! #likeaboss😎 #firstdance
Some of our best dance parties this year have been smaller groups and destination weddings. Thinking about last Saturday’s rockin’ party, which was both. Thank you @amandajo16 and @dyer508 for letting us be a part of it! #winecountrywedding #winecountryweddings #weddingdj #weddingdjs #mykindofparty #werockdancefloors #goodsoundadvice #weddingdjlife #sonomawedding #boonville #andersonvalley #mendocinowedding #mendocinoweddings
