DJ Jason Rullo at Pittsburgh Botanic Garden

On October 26, 2024, I had the absolute honor of providing DJ entertainment for Caroline and Ryan’s unforgettable wedding at the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden in Oakdale, PA. From the very first meeting with them, it was crystal clear how deeply they loved each other and how excited they were to celebrate their big day. They had one goal in mind: to throw a RAGER of a party that everyone would remember for years to come.

Caroline and Ryan’s enthusiasm was infectious. When I shared with them that their wedding would be my final one of the 2024 season, they looked at me and said, “Let’s make it one to remember then.” And let me tell you, they delivered on that promise in every way imaginable. Huge shoutout to Danny Gorman Photography for these amazing shots!

The Venue

The Pittsburgh Botanic Garden was the perfect backdrop for their celebration. Surrounded by nature’s beauty, the venue’s charm added an extra layer of magic to the event. From the ceremony to the reception, every detail was thoughtfully planned to create an unforgettable experience for their guests. We also got to work with one of our FAVORITE wedding planners, Joyful Events by Jade, who nailed every detail of the big day.

Services Provided

To ensure Caroline and Ryan’s vision came to life, we pulled out all the stops with our comprehensive entertainment package:

DJ & MC Services: Featuring our sleek new DJ booth, which added a modern and stylish touch to the setup. Also included intelligent lighting to really set the party off when it was time to dance.
Full Room Decor Uplighting: The incandescent colored uplighting transformed the venue into a vibrant, elegant space that set the mood for a night of celebration.
Ceremony PA and Music Playback: Every guest could hear the heartfelt vows and enjoy the beautiful ceremony music. We provided microphones for the officiant, readers, and for Caroline and Ryan’s personally written vows.
Additional Sound System for the Dinner Area: This ensured seamless audio coverage, so the atmosphere stayed lively and engaging throughout dinner.

The Party

The reception was electric from start to finish. Guests packed the dance floor all night long, fueled by an epic playlist tailored to Caroline and Ryan’s taste. From timeless classics to the latest hits, every track kept the energy high and the vibes immaculate. Seeing everyone—young and old—dancing together was a testament to the love and joy that Caroline and Ryan radiated.

By the end of the night, it was clear that their wedding wasn’t just a celebration—it was an experience. I’m beyond grateful to have been a part of their special day and to have ended my 2024 wedding season on such an incredible high note.

Caroline and Ryan ended their wedding reception with a private last dance.
The song they chose was “Last Shot” – by Kip Moore

Heinz History Center Wedding

On June 9th, 2018, I was honored to provide the DJ/MC and Lighting services for Anthony and Sarah’s beautiful wedding reception at Heinz History Center’s Mueller Center.

The room decor featured blush pink, and gold accents. Beautiful To add to the beautiful decor that they had already picked out for the venue, I provided Blush Pink uplighting all around the room and projected a custom monogram on the far wall. The place looked stunning!

Check out some photos I captured below of the room and of Anthony & Sarah’s First Dance as husband and wife. Their First Dance song was “How would you feel” by Ed Sheeran. This is the first time I had clients choose this song and let me tell you, its absolutely beautiful.

The 5th floor Mueller Center at the Heinz History Center is a beautifully appointed, traditional ballroom featuring a wall of windows and a 15′ x 135′ outdoor deck with a view of the river directly in front and a view of the city to the left. The sunsets seen from the deck are just spectacular.

On June 10, 2017, I had the pleasure of working with Marty and Stephanie at the beautiful Wyndham Grand Pittsburgh, the beautiful hotel overlooking Pittsburgh\’s point.

The day started with ceremony services located in a separate ballroom from the reception area. For that, we provided a dedicated sound system, microphones, and a direct feed into our system for the awesome live musicians, Cadilac Jazz. After the ceremony the guests got to enjoy a lovely cocktail hour outside of the reception ballroom listing to the sounds of an awesome live jazz band.

In the reception ballroom, we provided tiffany blue uplighting all around the room (pictured above) as well as a custom projected monogram on the wall displaying the couple\’s names and wedding date.

Uplighting-Yes Please

Weddings DJ Jammin Jason, DJ Jason Rullo, lighting, Pittsburgh Wedding DJ, Uplighting, Weddings 0

Uplighting is the art of painting with light to create a truly elegant background for the most beautiful and well planned days of your lives together as a couple. Uplighting is a series of lights that can be set up around the room, usually placed on or near the floor projecting vibrant colors up towards the walls or other architectural features of the room.

Using lighting to bring out the colors of your wedding, your bridesmaids dresses, your flowers and the aspects of the room help create a truly unique and exceptional wedding. The secret lies in the type of lighting, where to place the lighting, and using it to enhance and boost the already beautiful aspects of your wedding. Looking for a lower overall cost in decor, but still looking for a large impact on the overall look of your event? Uplighting is it!

Inquire today for pricing on uplighting

There are many ways to use uplighting. Think of using up-lights to bring life to your:
• Head table
• Tents
• Drapes
• Entrance
• Arches
• Cakes …don’t worry…Our LED’s emit NO heat and won’t melt the icing!
• Architectural room features (windows, columns, etc…)
• Decorative additions (such as pillars, floral arrangements, easels, etc…)
