Del's Groove RoCks the Reception of Vanessa & Craig Galello at Villanova Conference Center!

It all began, and then began again at Villanova for Vanessa & Craig, so they shared the place they love with their loved ones. Starting with the most heartwarming welcome speeches and toast by their best man was a hug that set the tone for the rest of the evening.

I remember Mr. & Mrs. Pantano making the trip from CT to meet Del's Groove at one of our showcases and it was so wonderful for Del's Groove to be a part of their daughters day. Vanessa made a request to us that we sing a special dedication to a very dear friend of hers. Never a problem for Del's Groove! The all male vocal tune proved to be anything but a challenge for us.

All I can say is the decor of The Villanova Conference Center was as beautiful as the people that joined these families for this unforgettable occasion.

Del's Groove would like to thank the Pantano & Galello family for their hospitality and

Thank you Vanessa & Craig for having Del's Groove share your wedding day with you!

All the best ~

On July 30th, Del's Groove introduced Mr. & Mrs. James Brown to I Feel Good as this beautiful couple walked down the grand staircase onto the dancefloor. This Will Be an Everlasting Love was their first dance. Jacquie and James Tyler knew exactly how they wanted to set the tone for the evening an Del's Groove orchestrated it to their every wish. The Racquet Club of Philadelphia is such a beautiful venue for a wedding and the attention to detail by Jeffrey Miller Catering was incredible as well. We also had the privilege to work with Cathy and Allen of BG Productions capturing all the timeless moments of the evening, and even caught a shot of them! This reception rocked till the end and many thanks to Jacquie and Tyler for allowing Del's Groove to share their special day. Special thank you to Marc Liss of Jeffrey Miller Caterers for taking such great care of us as well.

Jacquie & Tyler even had time to write these kind words of thanks:

You guys were FANTASTIC! The first thing all of our guests say to us about the wedding is how awesome of a band we had...so thank you for making our night so fun and memorable!

Once again, thank you Cathie & Allen from BG Productions for the awesome pro shots, you can view some here and please visit them at www.bgproonline.com

Del's Groove RoCkS the Reception of Amanda & Scott Dayer! Weyhill Guest House Saucon Valley CC

On Saturday June 18th Del's Groove had the privilege to perform for Amanda & Scott Borda. The grounds of The Weyhill Guest House at Saucon Valley CC was the most beautiful setting for this summer wedding. Band leader Emanuel Del Pizzo warmed up the guests with some smooth trumpet sounds during the cocktail hour. Behind the scenes was Event coordinator Sarah Morrison of All About Events making sure every detail was carefully in place.

When it came time to announce the bridal party, our bride Amanda asked Del's Groove to surprise her husband with the Buffalo Bills version of Shout...his favorite team. Of course, no problem for the band! First dance for this lovely couple was Inxs - Never Tear us Apart, perfectly performed by guitarist Raymond Smith.

The remainder of this evening resulted in non-stop raising the tent dancing, under the stars in this beautiful area in Pennsylvania. Vocalist Philip Joseph also gave "Cupid Shuffle" lessons on the dance floor!

Special thanks to Sarah Morrison of All About Events and Joe Craig Photography, I will be updating this blog later with his work!

All the best Amanda & Scott, thank you for having Del's Groove perform on your most special day!

David Zaveloff Photography

Self proclaimed "geek" David Zaveloff, says he loves the technical side of the artistry of photography, and appreciates the creative outlook it allows. Del's Groove had the pleasure to work along with photographer David Zaveloff at Stephanie & Nick's wedding at The Mendenhall last year. When talking to David, he has a deep love for things that last. Being told he has an old soul, photography has allowed him to connect that part of him. He truly loves creating historical documents of major life events that will last for generations.

David originally started his career as an industrial designer, but decided to take what was originally a hobby and make photography his career to make meaningful memories rather than design meaningless stuff. "All my events are memorable" says David. A wedding is a unique that within a span of a few hours, you can capture every emotion we are capable of.

David intends to educate that photography is a historical document and the the truest way to do that is through your wedding album. Favorite venues, are those of an "old school" feel such as Ballroom at the Ben, The Crystal Tea Room, and most of all, Stotesbury Mansion where he and the love of his life Karyn will be having their wedding reception soon! On behalf of Del's Groove, best wishes and thank you for taking the time out to share your craft for The Wedding Singer Blog!

Del's Groove looks forward to working with you again soon!
