Thursday, January 19th, 2012

When you pick up the newest issue of Perfect Wedding Guide, flip to the wedding spotlight…and you’ll see Chelsea and Nick!

We shared a few shots of their awesome wedding at Potomac Point Winery where the newlyweds smashed grapes a la I Love Lucy and their guests danced all night long. Now more details (like who created Chelsea’s gorgeous bouquet) can be found in Perfect Wedding Guide.

It’s so exciting to be featured in Perfect Wedding Guide – what a way to start 2012!

2012 Sparkle Lounge!

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012

After a busy holiday season, the Ronald Reagan Building’s annual Sparkle Lounge is a welcome opportunity to catch up with wedding industry friends. There’s nothing like good conversation and enjoying a cocktail in such a spectacular space!

This year, though, Chris Laich Music Services will be doing less schmoozing and more spinning! We’re proud (and thrilled) to provide the soundtrack to what is sure to be a wonderful evening for DC’s wedding professionals.

See you there!

Blue Martini Party, 2011

Wednesday, December 28th, 2011

Another year has gone by, and once again the Blue Martini Party was the place to be for Washington, DC’s wedding professionals! It was our 4th year and the event is growing every year!

All the stars of the DC wedding industry came out to enjoy great conversation, the Willard’s famous hospitality, and, of course, blue martinis. The Willard is always a fantastic place, but DC Rental outdid themselves this year with the furniture and décor. Lucky for us, wonderfully fab Kelsey Thompson Photography shot the whole evening and created the great slideshow below so we could share it with you!

Thanks to everyone for coming and for making 2011 so great. Here’s to another marvelous year!

Strathmore Hall Wedding DJ Playlist

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.and it’s true. One shot of a first dance or a mid-wedding reception dance frenzy can capture the moment. But what, you may ask yourself as you gaze at the picture of people getting down, did the wedding DJ sound like?

Well, now you’ll have your answer! While deejaying a wedding recently at Strathmore Hall, we noted the playlist and created the audio sample below:

Happy Thanksgiving from Chris Laich Music Services!

Wedding at the Top of the Hay – Jessica & David

Thursday, November 10th, 2011

Over the summer, we had the honor of deejaying Jessica and David’s wedding at one of our favorite DC venues, Top of the Hay.

Their first dance to Elvis Presley’s “Cant Help Falling in Love” was spectacular, and after Jessica’s Father Daughter dance to “What a Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong, everyone spent almost the entire night on the dance floor. Jessica and David’s photographer, the amazing Rodney Bailey, sent over his images of the wedding, and we couldn’t wait to share them.

We love the first dance sequence shots – they totally capture the happy couple’s energy!

Best wishes, Jessica and David!

Metropolitan Club Washington DC – DJ Set Up

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

Founded in 1863, the Metropolitan Club in DC is a private institution right near Dupont Circle. What makes it unusual as a wedding venue is not its elegant façade or gracious rooms, but that it can be used by members of the Metropolitan Club alone.

The Metropolitan Club of Washington DC

Chris Laich Music Services is fortunate to have deejayed several weddings there throughout the years, and every time feels like a special treat! In June, our clients Sara and Charles celebrated their wedding at the Metropolitan Club. To preserve the elegance of the space and still provide the kind of sound that gets guests dancing, we brought along our wireless Bose speakers, carefully placing them for optimum performance in the space.

Next week, we’ll share photographer Stacey Vaeth’s pictures of Sara and Charles’s wedding. In the meantime, check out the pictures of our equipment set up at the Metropolitan Club below.

Mandarin Oriental DC – Dj Set Up

Wednesday, August 17th, 2011

As a DC wedding venue, the unique ambiance, talented staff, and award-wining food at the Mandarin Oriental easily place it at the top.

Deejaying weddings at the Mandarin is always a great experience because of its talented event and catering team. Plus the hotel has such a sophisticated, chic vibe, it’s hard not to feel as though special things happen there!

Though the Mandarin’s ballroom is amazing on its own, couples often use lighting effects to add to the drama. When setting up our equipment and Bose wireless speakers, we’re careful to coordinate with the lighting or design element team. Our goal is always to ensure excellent sound…and preserve our client’s vision of what their day should look like. To see what we mean, have a look at our set-up shots from a recent wedding at the Mandarin below.
