We wish you all a Happy & Safe 4th!

Seeing fireworks on the 4th is about as American as apple pie! We hope you enjoy your Independence Day and it’s filled with great family & friends either poolside, by the barbecue, or at a local parade.

Break out all things red, white & blue and celebrate the day the Declaration of Independence was signed. Have a wonderful 4th of July!

Using the Preferred Vendor List

Planning a wedding is never easy. So when you receive vendor recommendations from a trusted source, take note.

Why not make your planning a bit easier by listening to the professionals who have personally seen specific service vendors in action. Most venues have a list of Preferred Vendors, for a reason. Your venue wants your event to be a success! Preferred vendors are simply a list of various vendors that your venue has worked with on several occasions and they know these vendors will be able to execute their industry service skillfully and professionally. Who would be a better judge of successful events other than your venue? They have seen more Entertainers, Photographers, and Videographers than any one member of your family or friends. The venue is putting their reputation on the line with giving you their recommendation. Why would they offer you anything mediocre?

Your venue knows what works and what does not work for their site, and so do their preferred vendors. They have completed events at that venue quite a few times and are most aware of the setup needed and how to successfully get your guests to have a great time. Once you receive your Vendor List, still do your research, but keep in mind that recommendations do not come to those who don’t put in the work to receive such a compliment. You’ve done the work in selecting the venue, now it is time to take the vendor recommendations to help with further planning!

Be Flexible in your Budget for the Important Parts of your Wedding!

Have you ever heard someone say they don’t see the need in hiring professional wedding entertainment because they think it’s a waste of money? We don’t think this is an area you should cut costs in. It may not seem important prior to the reception, but we believe entertainment can make or break your special day.

A guest’s top memory about a wedding is the entertainment. While planning a wedding there are many important details to handle, but keep in mind there are also many details that could be a waste of time. Don’t sweat the small stuff! Be sure that you have budgeted 10-15% of the total wedding budget towards your DJ or choice entertainment.  Although it may seem that bridal magazines and websites are your guiding light, remember that the price of your DJ will vary depending on your location. Most couples only budget $500-$1000 for a DJ, this is NOT enough! Do your research; find out how much the professionals start at in your area. Most Full-Time Professionals in the Pittsburgh, PA area will start around $1500 and go up from there.

In addition to playing music, make sure your DJ will help keep your reception on schedule with signatures events like the bouquet toss, father/daughter dance, cake cutting, even an anniversary dance. They should also have backups of everything from equipment to personnel and proper insurance! Don’t let a bad DJ ruin your wedding! Try putting yourself in your guests’ seats as you think about how you want your big day to be remembered. Do you think your guests will remember the one of-a-kind hand made centerpieces, or your favorite Uncle following small interactive dances that can be easily taught by our DJs? Your entertainment will play a huge part in that so choose wisely!

Think about that house party or wedding you went to with no music and poor atmosphere. We can only imagine how boring that was; so take our word when we say a party with Wenning Entertainment is like a great house party times 20!

“Relax and Trust in the Professionals you Hired!”

No one ever said planning a wedding is all fun, but the end result is well worth the attention to detail and sometimes even the stress! You have so many responsibilities when you are involved in wedding planning.

Why add more stress on yourself by trying to keep tabs on the entertainment, food, photography, venue and more? Remember, this is our area of expertise. For us after 20 years of doing everything from planning, production, lighting, photography and of course music, you can relax knowing that you have hired a FULL-TIME entertainment company!

Our main focus is making sure that your event runs flawlessly! Our reputation depends on our job every week. Trust the judgment of the professionals you hire rather than trying to oversee their every move. Micro managing adds a lot of stress to an already stressful day. You’ve done months of planning for this day and so have your vendors. A true industry professional puts their name on the line for each event. So breath easy and let the experts execute their craft while you worry about saying ‘I DO!’
