Del's Groove Performs 2011 Uwchlan Community Day!






























It was a hot summer day but fun was had by all at the 2011 Uwchlan Community Day! Del's Groove had the privilege to perform for this wonderful community gathering that was fun for the entire family and free! Balloon bounces, funnel cakes, ice cream, to mention just a few of the vendors filling the bellies of young and old. Fireworks ended the evening with yes...a bang! It was great seeing some old friends, my friend Mary from high school surprised me and she looked the same as she did when we hung out in junior high. Other friends such as Nicole and Vernon bringing their three little men made me smile as well. Finally getting to meet Dylan, the son of Mary Anne and Bruce Gill, our awesome soundman was also a highlight to my day.
I recommend not missing the 2012 Uwchlan Community day, you won't regret it!


Thank you Uwchlan Township for having Del's Groove!


All the best,

The Radnor Hotel - Del's Groove RoCkS the Reception of Mr. & Mrs. Ryan Parks!














Del's Groove a familiar favorite to the Bongiovanni family once again had the privilege to perform at their daughter Anne's wedding. It was less than a year ago we were all together for her twin sisters Elizabeths wedding to her husband Joe. It was awesome seeing everyone again and seeing many familiar faces. Anne & Ryans reception was at the beautiful Radnor Hotel. This beautiful couple chose "Life is Beautiful" by Kebmo as their first dance performed by Del's Groove's own Raymond Smith pulling out his acoustic guitar to perfectly perform this heartfelt song. Anne and her father danced to "How Sweet it is to be Loved by You", performed by Rob Feeney, and Ryan danced with his mother to every ones favorite classic "What a Wonderful World" The rest of the evening from dinner to the end had the dance floor packed. Del's Groove once again had this reception rocking!


We also had the honor of working with my twitter pal Heather DiPiazza! Please check out her awesome website http://heatherdipiazza.blogspot.com/ thank you for the beautiful pro shots for my blog!


Heather also filled me in that while photographing before the wedding, all the girls were buzzing that they were thrilled to hear us again!


All the Best Anne & Ryan, hope your trip to Italy was incredible!


Thank you for having Del's Groove!

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!

Allison & Jame! Danced all night at Aldie Mansion!































Del's Groove had the privilege to RoCk the reception of Allison & Jame on June 11th 2011. It was a beautiful day for a beautiful couple at The Aldie Mansion. Allison and Jame chose Into The Mystic by Van Morrison as their first dance and shortly after the bridal party joined them on the dance floor. Wonderfully articulated toasts by Maid of honor Megan and Best Man Bobby Wunsch had guests amused with their stories of the bride & groom.


All my years being The Wedding Singer, I remember the carefully sculptured grounds and patio perfect for cocktail hour. In no time, Del's Groove once again packed the dance floor!


Thank you so much for the wonderful hospitality and having Del's Groove perform on your special day.


All the Best Allison & Jame Wunsch!
