Weddings

We provide DJ entertainment for almost any type of event. However, Kelley Entertainment specializes in wedding receptions. We are able to provide you with the right music at the right time. From soft dinner music, to high energy dance music, we understand that the proper mix and presentation of the music makes all the difference in creating a truly memorable wedding.

Your wedding day is one of the most important days in your lives. Do not trust this day to just any DJ company. At Kelley Entertainment we know how important your wedding is and we will do all we can to make it PERFECT. Check out our Wedding Planning area on the web click here.

Have you ever been to a wedding that had no music? How about one where the music was so bad you wished there had been none? Let's just say such a wedding is a seemingly endless experience. You certainly don't want anyone to remember your wedding this way, so put some careful thought into this part of the wedding reception. Remember that the right music adds spirit and feeling to any moment; don't pass up the opportunity to let it enhance your big day.

At Kelley Entertainment, we provide DJ entertainment for all types of events, but if there is one area we excel at, it would have to be wedding receptions. We pride ourselves in our knowledge and experience at making wedding receptions run smoothly. Our commitment to you is simple, "We will treat your wedding reception with the same care and attention to detail as we would our own".

We offer you free unlimited planning assistance and will gladly answer any questions you may have. You can phone us at 412-583-9696 or you can e-mail us by clicking HERE.

Throughout the planning of your wedding, you will be faced with many choices and options. To help with these decisions,Kelley Entertainment has put together a list of wedding planning do's and don'ts.

We would like to leave you with this final thought: Most brides and grooms will struggle to keep their wedding costs low and maintain a reasonable budget. Recent bridal magazine surveys have determined that guests will remember the entertainment at your wedding reception, more than any other single item. (See wedding cost chart below) After looking closely at the survey results, keep in mind that the choices you make for your wedding reception entertainment are critical. Do not trust this day to just any entertainment company. Contact Kelley Entertainment today.

Wedding Cost

This chart shows the average cost of goods and services for an average wedding. As you can see the cost of preparing and serving food (catering) consumes 38 percent of the total cost. Note that the DJ cost is only 2 percent of the total, yet a professional DJ will be at the wedding and reception longer and have more responsibilities than any of your other vendors and be the last to leave.

The DJ can make or break the partyand that's why you should always hire a professional. Below is a list of the typical expenses related to a wedding and reception. In order to stay within a budget you may need to prioritize your wedding expenses. The guide will help you track your expenses by what you have budgeted and what you have actually spent. This will make your planning as easy as possible without any unwanted surprises.
