Karaoke during Wedding Reception

Because we have so much experienced dj’ing with Karaoke during events everything worked perfectly. DJ Dave is not only an expert DJ but also a top Karaoke dj. He knows what songs fit where and how to keep the dance floor full and active even when guests  are singing karaoke!!! While there was a lot of Dancing there was also a lot of singing! Here is the happy couple singing their favorite song….(which also kicked off the karaoke)

There were many heartfelt, beautiful toasts and speeches and an especially touching one by the Grooms sister Anica.

More Weddings We've Played at the Metropolitan Building

A Filipino and Australian Wedding

May 2015

The second floor of the Metropolitan Building is split into three rooms, so Dave ran his main system in the main room and added wireless Bose speakers in the other two so every toast carried. It was a European-style evening, with toasts, special dances and dinner first, then an all-out dance party for guests who had come from all over the world. Rebecca and Luis of An Unruffled Bride coordinated.

“Multiple times throughout the night, our guests came up to us & asked if we had personally picked the play list.”

Erica and Tom's Wedding

April 2016

Natural light and a cozy, homey feel make the Metropolitan Building one of Dave's favorite rooms. We provided the music and lighting, and Dave DJ'd the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception for a crowd that didn't leave the dance floor for a minute.

“So many people came up to us to tell us how our dj was awesome.”
