Eileen and Mike

We really do have the best clients, the thank you notes have just been rolling in this week!

We received the following from Eileen and Mike:
"My husband Mike and I wanted to send a thank you to everyone at Synergetic Sounds, particularly Matt Blank. Make and I were married on Friday, November 6 and Matt was the DJ at our wedding. My husband and I are *huge* music lovers and finding the perfect DJ was very important to us. We found Synergetic through a referral from a friend and loved your professionalism from the first phone call.

I initially spoke with Jason who let me know that Matt was available on our wedding night to DJ our reception. When Mike and I met with Matt, we talked with him about what we would like in a DJ - someone who would talk on the microphone minimally and keep the dance floor packed all night. After that first meeting, Mike and I both felt confident that Matt would give us exactly what we were looking for in a DJ. And boy, did he deliver!

Matt did an awesome job at our wedding reception! I had a *blast* dancing all night. Numerous friends and family members have commented to us about the great DJ we had. Matt did such a great job keeping me (and even my husband at times!) and all of our guests dancing and having a great time all night long. Thank you Matt, for making our wedding reception the fun filled night I hoped it would be.

Thank you to all of you for helping to make such a special night in our lives perfect. We have wonderful memories of our wedding reception and you all played a very important part in that. You all do a wonderful job!"

This is why we do what we do and why our DJ's are so passionate.
Eileen and Mike, thank you so much for your kind words. We're so glad you were happy! We wish you the best!

Alison and Troy

Alison and Troy were married last month at Holly Hedge. They had a beautiful ceremony and reception - Jason DJ'd both and we provided the plasmas and did the up lighting. We recently received a lovely letter from Alison's father, Steve, that I'd like to share.

"This note is overdue. We wanted to thank you again for the fantastic work you and your assistant did with the wedding and reception. Your performance as master of ceremonies was just as we had hoped it would be when we started planning the event.

The red up lighting absolutely made the room. We can’t imagine what it would have looked like if we hadn’t done it. It was so dramatic and it created such warmth in the room. The still pictures look beautiful with the lighting in the background. We can’t wait to see what it did for the video.

Speaking of video, the clip during the father/daughter dance came out perfect. It was the hit of the evening. We got so many compliments and many of the men commented that they had gotten 'misty' eyed. Thank you for your kind words after it was over. It was the moment we had planned for so long and it clearly exceeded our expectations.

Overall, every one of the people involved in the making this wedding either met or exceeded our expectations. But we really believe you and Albie were the keys to it. You two work so well together.

Once more, thank you for doing such a wonderful job and making the only major event of our lives such a success. We will never forget it.

With warm regards,
Ellie and Steve"

Ellie and Steve, we're so glad you were pleased with our services. It was a beautiful wedding and we're so glad we could be a part of such an important time in your lives. We wish you, Alison and Troy all the best!

Here is a video clip of the father/daughter dance that Steve mentioned in his letter. While Alison and Steve were dancing, playing on the plasmas was video of the two of them dancing together at an event when she was 7. Thanks so much to Steve Newbert at All Occasion Video for the clip!

Thanksgiving - a day to reflect

When I think about Thanksgiving, the first things that come to mind are, food and family. My husband and I get both sides of our families together at our home for a wonderful day filled with love, laughter and lots of food. Even though Thanksgiving isn't my favorite holiday food-wise, I look forward to it every year.

In the Jewish religion, there are days dedicated to reflection, but I see Thanksgiving as another day for that. 2009 has been a year of tremendous ups and downs for many, I know it has been for myself and my family, but when there is a "down," an "up" isn't usually too far behind. No matter how difficult things get, or how hard one day may seem, there is always tomorrow.

I am extremely thankful for my Husband and my family. I have a wonderful job and work with some incredible people. I have a baby girl on the way and I could not be more thankful for her. No matter how tough things seem, there is always something to be thankful for. So at some point today, or over the next few days, instead of dwelling on what's missing, please take some time to reflect on all that you have and all that you're thankful for. I promise to do the same.

I hope you all have a happy and healthy holiday, filled with love, laughter and lots of food.

Jessica and Justin

We got a very nice "thank you" in the mail from Jessica and Kurt that I wanted to share. Kurt DJ'd their reception at Woodcrest Country Club back in August.

"Dear Kurt, We really enjoyed having you as the DJ for our wedding on August 1st. You were very professional and a pleasure to work with. You did a great job of playing a variety of music - everyone had a great time at our wedding. I was impressed with how many people were out on the dance floor all night. Thank you for all of your hard work. -Jessica and Justin."

Jessica and Justin, we're so glad you were pleased and we wish you all the best!

Her are a few images from their special day thanks to Dana Romano Photography.

Kurt and Shawn - our DJ's love what they do!

How some simple lighting can make a big difference

We recently received some images from Leslie at Leslie Gilbert Photography. We worked with Leslie on two different lighting rentals over the past couple of months and what she captured, really shows how big of a difference some simple lighting can make.

This first wedding was at Congress Hall in Cape May, NJ. We did up lighting and dance floor break ups.

Up lighting is a nice, simple way to add some warmth, light and color to a room.

The break ups add some visual interest to the dance floor without becoming overwhelming.

The second wedding was at the Radisson Plaza-Warwick in Philadelphia. We did pink up lighting throughout the room, for both the ceremony and reception. It is simple, but really warmed up the room.
If you are interested in lighting for your ceremony or reception, give us a call, (215) 633-1200. We'd be happy to talk to you about what we can do!

Thanks so much for the images Leslie!

Tina and Erik

For Tina and Erik's reception at Pen Ryn Mansion, we uplit the room in pink, did dance floor break ups in a darker pink and projected their monogram on the dance floor. The room looked beautiful!

Thanks to Robert Winton of Because You Love Photography for the images!

Official Offshoots! Launch

A few weeks ago Jason and I attended the official Offshoots! launch at Feastivities. Offshoots! is the floral and decor branch of Feastivities catering. Chris, the new Director of Design and Development at Offshoots!, asked us to do some lighting to help showcase their work and we're really glad we were able to help.

We did break up patterns on the outside of the building - talk about a WOW factor when you drove up!


We also did some up lighting and pin spotting throughout the inside of the building, and of course, provided our awesome Plasma Bar!


Chris, thanks so much for asking us to participate! We're looking forward to working with you more in the future!

A HUGE thank you to the always fabulous Jackie Bayne (Love Shack Photo) for the beautiful images!

And here's a picture of Paola and I at the event. Paola is the Creative Director at Offshoots! and an all around awesome person! We're due just 7 weeks apart!
