Edmonton Wedding DJ Soundsations June 26, 2010 St. Albert Inn

This past weekend brought your Edmonton wedding DJ Soundsations to the St. Albert Inn for yet another wedding dance.

This one was the party of the year so far without a doubt. Everyone was having such a good time that we went into overtime dancing until 2:00 am. I'll take some of the credit, but this was a great crowd that didn't need much prompting to get the party started. Everyone was very polite and friendly and most guests came to dance. There were lots of great requests made ranging from country 2 steps to old school rap and hip hop to polkas and I was happy to oblige.

As usual, I caught some of the action on camera and have made a short video compilation.

Graduations and wedding time

Your Edmonton wedding DJ Soundsations Music has been busy over the past few weekends having fun Dj'ing a huge graduation dance a small town high school reunion and a big wedding. The high school graduation had about 1500 guests so some extra sound reinforcement was brought in to really rock the joint. It was held at the cavernous Northlands Agricom. Needless to say lots of top 40 dance music was on the menu that night and the dance floor was given a real workout.

The next day I was off to the small town of Sedgewick Alberta about 2 hours southeast of Edmonton for a 10 year high school reunion. There was only about 50 guests at the small hall but we still managed to party like it was 1999 (actually it was the class of 2000, so pretty close).

This past weekend I did a big wedding at Fort Edmonton Park in the hanger. This is another huge venue. The hanger doors were open until about 11:00 pm so guests could hang around on the patio outside too. To accommodate this extra speakers were brought in to provide music inside and outside. This dance took awhile to heat up, but from about 11:00 till 2 in the morning we really rocked out. With all the extra stuff to pack up I didn't get home till after 4 am.

I am posting a video compilation of some of the action from the past few weeks for anyone that's curious.

Edmonton DJ Wedding Season is heating up

Hello again.

It's that time of year again when your Edmonton wedding DJ Soundsations music starts getting out to a wedding just about every weekend. This past Saturday took us out to Hazeldean Community Hall. This party was a blast and really easy to DJ. not too much encouragement was required to keep the dance floor full all night.

Everyone was super friendly and lots of compliments on the music were received throughout the evening. Here is a short video compilation of some of the dancing action.

Edmonton Wedding DJ Soundsations Apr. 30 & May 1

Edmonton Wedding DJ Soundsations was busy this past weekend performing at a pair of weddings. On Friday night it was the good old Blueberry hall just west of Edmonton. There was abaout 150 guests and soundsations was there to provide cocktail and dinner music before the first dance got underway around 9:00 pm. We were able to keep the dance floor pretty busy all evening, fitting in lots of standards as well as some more unusual requests.

Saturday brought us out to Cardiff Alberta for some more wedding action. The crowd was about the same size as the previous night, but this group really came to dance. Not much encouragement was needed from the DJ and lots of great requests were made and played. Everything looked great with the hall decorations and Soundsations light show.

See the video of some of the dancing action above.

Next Saturday Soundsations will be in St. Albert, Alberta for another wedding. I will report back soon.

On February 13 Edmonton Wedding DJ Soundsations performed in Killam Alberta. It turned out to be an awesome audience. They really seemed to enjoy the music and kept the large dance floor packed from start to finish. The party didn't fade out as they sometimes do. The crowd stayed 'till closing time at 2 AM and the dance floor got busier as the evening went on. You can see from the posted video that a good time was had by all.

Killam is almost a 2 hour drive from Edmonton so after packing up everything, I didn't get back home 'till about 5 AM. I was pretty tired the rest of the weekend but it was such a fun show it was worth it.

I hope to be back to DJ in Killam again soon. Until next time...

Soundsations Edmonton DJ at Marriott River Cree

In my last post I mentioned that Soundsations (My Edmonton DJ Company) would be entertaining at the Marriottt River Cree in Edmonton for their staff party on January 10th. I am happy to report that the event was a huge success. The staff from the Fairmont Hotel Macdonald provided their services for the evening in exchange for the Marriott staff having served at their function earlier in the year. It therefore goes without saying that the food and service was first class.

Once the formalities were done with and that dance started at around ten o'clock, it only took about 30 seconds for the dance floor to get packed and it stayed that way right through to the last song. It was really a dream gig in terms of the crowds response to the music. There were so many requests, I couldn't possibly play them all in one evening but almost every song played was a request and they loved it. It really looked and sounded great with the lighting effects and the sound system pumping pretty loud and clear. I have attached a video made from some of the photos I snapped that night.

It looks quieter now in terms of the number of functions coming up (until wedding season kicks in), but I'm sure a few jobs will pop up.

'till next time ...

Edmonton DJ does Boxing Day Wedding and New Years Eve in Nisku

Happy New Year. I am now recovering from the two events I managed to squeeze in between my last post and the end of the year. My Edmonton DJ company Soundsations performed a Boxing Day wedding at the Hotel Macdonald and a New Years Eve party at the Nisku Inn.

The wedding was a great success despite a late start to the first dance. Dinner can take a while at the Hotel Macdonald (it's worth it though) so late starts there are normal. The dance floor was kept busy after the dance finally started. I have posted some photos from the event.

The New Years Eve party was also a great time although it was a lower than expected turnout probably due to minus 30 Celsius temperatures outside.

I am looking forward to 2010 being as busy as last year with my first event scheduled for January 10th at the River Cree Resort (their staff party). Should be lots of fun.
