{Wedding Details} Lighting Transformations

I’ve talked to many brides and grooms, and it is surprising how often lighting is over-looked as a necessity for the wedding. Snyder Entertainment has a wide variety of lighting options (custom monogram gobos, LED up-lights, dance floor lighting, spotlights, etc)  that can be used to set the mood for your wedding night. It’s hard to describe the dramatic difference lighting can have on an event (and your wedding photos!), so I’ll let the pictures do the talking.

During the planning process, you and your fiancé will eventually have to decide between a wedding DJ or a live wedding band. There is no right or wrong choice. Both options can complete your wedding reception and keep your guests on their feet. Incase you’re needing some help deciding on what to choose, the Snyder Entertainment team has provided some pros and cons to help you decide on your wedding entertainment!

Some of the most rewarding moments come from our opportunities to be the entertainment for  nonprofit events. This weekend we were honored to be a special part of Make-A-Wish Middle Tennessee's Stars for Wishes Late Party event. Bo Jennings from Cumberland Hospitality Group was putting the late party together, and he happens to be one of our biggest fans for DJ services. He came to us for this event because he wanted to go above and beyond with this year's Late Party. We were up for the challenge!

Wedding Reception Regrets

Wedding Reception Regrets

The summer days are getting hot and that means fall is just around the corner. For me, it always makes me think of my wedding anniversary. Ashley and myself were married on October 4th, 2003 and in so many ways…it really does seem like yesterday. Without any doubt or any hesitation, it was one of the greatest days of my life. I laughed and I smiled all day. However, it would be a lie to say I had no wedding day regrets. Maybe these regrets are biased from what I do for a living (entertainment business), but I can tell you these are similar conversations we have been sharing with clients over the last 6 months and I wanted to share the Top 5 Wedding Regrets shared from our clients.

5 Bridal Show Survival Tips

5 Bridal Show Survival Tips

This Sunday is the Nashville Perfect Wedding Guide (#NashPWGShow) show taking place at The Music City Center. The PWG shows started in 2011 and have quickly became the “must attend” show in the Nashville market. The winter shows have over 1,000 brides coming through the door. As a vendor I personally find these shows a tad overwhelming. If I find them overwhelming and I am in the business and already married….I KNOW YOU as a bride must feel overwhelmed. The summer shows offer a more intimate experience to connect with the vendors and we will try to alleviate some of the headaches by offering you 5 Bridal Show Survival Tips. Lace up your heels and get ready for action, we plan on getting you through this weekend like a hero!

5 Reasons You Should Have A Photo Booth At Your Next Event

5 Reasons You Should Have A Photo Booth At Your Next Event

2009 was our first year in the Photo Booth business and what an amazing journey we have been on since that time. In 2009 we had around 10 photo booths for the entire year. To put that in perspective, in 2013 we had well over 100 booth rentals. I share those numbers to illustrate simply how popular the photo booth has become in the last 5 years. As a Nashville DJ company that focuses on entertainment in general…the photo booth has been the most exciting and most explosive growth in our business. I wanted to share our experiences and give you The Top 5 Reasons You Need A Photo Booth At Your Next Event
