My
first experience in the music field was in grade school
when I won a talent show for singing. I took music and drama
classes in High School. I have sung for a number of cover bands
through the years. I got the idea to sing at weddings when my
niece (who is a couple of years younger than me) asked to sing
at her ceremony in 1994. Soon after that, a friend (who happened
to be a DJ) suggested I get into DJing. Since I have always had
an outgoing, fun personality and love to entertain people, I
figured I’d give it a try. I found out quickly that I loved
it, and have been doing it ever since. It also enables me to
sing without relying on other band members. My musical tastes
are pretty mainstream, however, I am well-versed in many
different genres of music.
My
emcee and entertainment style is best described as outgoing and
interactive. I have always had a great sense of humor and the
ability to connect with people. I have often been requested to
sing at a reception. Much to my satisfaction – and my
bride and groom’s- I’ve always received positive
reaction from the guests. I’ve found that when I mix in
singing a song here and there, it makes for a really memorable,
interactive event. I have been pretty successful in my balance
of singing and djing. A good entertainer can bring life to the
party without actually being the life of the party.
I
worked with Platinum DJ’s and Showtime DJs then I started my
own company, Twilight
Entertainment, in 1999. I average
about 45 events per year including holiday parties, birthday
parties, corporate events. My specialty is in weddings, which
comprise the vast majority of my events.
I
recently got married myself (October 4, 2008) to the “other” love of my life, my bride Lisa. I say
“other” because my first love (and with apologies to my
darling wife) is baseball, especially the Phillies. We were
introduced at our reception wearing Phillies jerseys and waving
rally towels as the John Fogerty song “Centerfield” was played.
That helped set the tone for a really fun night, one we
-and our guests- will never forget (especially since they won
the World Series a few weeks after we got married!).
I
have always taken great pride in my attention to detail. Going
through the planning process with my fiancé and seeing our
reception exceed her expectations made me fully appreciate the
importance of working with true wedding professionals. I derive
great satisfaction and enjoyment from entertaining people. I
take pride in my promptness, reliablity and professionalism. I
work well with banquet staffs, other vendors and most importantly
our clients. I will strive to make your wedding day as memorable
to you as mine was to us.
