September 26th and September 27th

What another busy weekend of events for Kevin Colangelo Premiere Disc Jockeys LLC!!
After recovering from the sensational news that we were selected to supply Disc Jockeys for the current MADONNA tour for thier VIP lounge pre show events at each Madonna concert, we surged forward with another vast amount of weekend events.

I personally was back at BELHURST CASTLE on Friday 26th September, having been there for the past 8 years with many weddings there completed and under my belt – it was nice to see Carmen again the wedding coordinator and her excellent staff who always do a great job!

I also worked with my very good friend Neil Cowley and his wife Liesel Cowley – renowned as the very top wedding photographers in their class – below a photograph of us at the wedding.

There were about 300 people in attendance for this incredible wedding!

We are looking forward to returning to Belhurst again shortly!
Saturday I was up early at 8am after returning home at 3am from Belhurst.

We used our UP LIGHTING to full effect in the Castle Ballroom on Friday – we started at 5pm and ended the incredible party at 12-30am !!

Off to set up for a Bar Mitzvah at Cazenovia Tennis Club for a 1pm start!

I forgot to take my camera hence no shots!
After completing the Bar Mitzvah I headed for the incredible Traditions at Links in Fayetteville Syracuse where my road crew had set up the main system in the afternoon, and arrived 1 hour prior to cocktail hour!

As you can see by the dancefloor – it was packed all night!

Picture below shows the dinner hour – a superb 3 course meal was in store!

People were still waiting for buses to collect them about 2 hours after the end of the reception!

We did our famour special intro for the bride and groom and a special first dance mix for their first dance….Thomas and Jennifer stole the show!
It was nice to meet other vendors and chat about a lot of things – Video Memories and the incredible Alter Image Photography crew!
It seems there is a lot of news going around the area lately – so it was a great opportunity for me to give my input.

What a pleasure to be selected by Thomas and Jennifer and Traditions at the Links as their entertainment for their wedding!

More coming soon!!!

……PS

There is no rest on the horizon …this weekend I am at Hotel Syracuse in the Persian Terrace doing a very elaborate Bat Mitzvah with Video Screens, Up lighting, special effects, tivoli lighting, and photo booth – YES we now have our very own PHOTO BOOTH for hire for your wedding, or any event!

Amazing Weekend back at Casa Larga!

Jason and Kathy were married on 9/20/08 at the wonderful Casa Larga in Rochester:

Below you can see photographs of the reception – we did a ceremony and reception at Casa Larga last Saturday – so 2 weeks in a row at Casa Larga!!

It was a mixed crowd of American and Thai guests, so we had to play some Laotion music which went over incredibly well!

We used our ‘famous’ up lighting to accent the room, and our high tech moving head lights and LED effects for dancing;

I don’t think I have ever gave out so many business cards at one reception than were requested on Saturday night by guests!

We were asked to go an extra hour and finished at 1am after arriving at the venue for load in, and preperations at 1pm that day..not arriving back home until 5am in Syracuse!

Wedding Video!!

Here is an example of a wedding I did in Upstate NY, Danielle’s in New Hartford – this was near the end of the reception!

I make sure your guests stay until the end and not leave after dinner, and are bored even if they do stay!

Remember the music you hear is what the client wanted on their day, therefore if you do not like a song you hear that you would not have at your reception, then use this as a guide – every wedding is different and normally we play a vast majority of different era’s and types of music depending on the information given by the client and the planning process before the reception..luckily we do not play the chicken dance or hokey pokey…only on the odd occasion where the client specifically asks for it to be played…as you can see by the video, – ALL ages are dancing even Grandmothers and small children…..a testamment to our experience…

Technology First!!!

Casa Larga Vineyards, Rochester Saturday September 13th

What a splendid and wonderful location for your wedding reception!

We had the pleasure of being the selected entertainment for Matt and Laura Nespoli at this excellent venue yesterday Saturday September 13th 2008:

We highlighted many parts of the room using our UP LIGHTING seen in the pictures here, and it really enhanced the room effect in so much that Casa Larga may be interested in installing their own up lighting!

Believe it or not we are actually back at Casa Larga next Saturday for another reception!

Also the management and staff are excellent to work with and the food and entire experience great – top notch!
In the pictures you can see myself with the Manager of Casa Larga and some pictures on the night which was a culmination of a long day – we started the ceremony at 5-30pm and the reception followed ending at 1 AM in the morning – yes 1 AM !

We look forward to a long and continued relationship with Casa Lagra!

ITS OFFICIAL ! Kevin Colangelo Premiere Disc Jockeys selected for MADONNA TOUR !
