The Show Must Go On!

EBE Matt Ostroff

At EBE, one of the principles we stand by, aside from continuous music, is the guarantee that your event will happen.  Whether it is rain, sleet or this year in particular snow, the show must go on.  As we all know, this winter has not been particularly kind to our area in the weather department.  We have seen record snow fall in December, only to be topped later in February! But this does not get in the way of our company bringing you the party that you deserve.

Recent recollectionsMatt O at work

“I did a wedding this past weekend that was very small.The bride and groom are incredibly shy, and they told me that no one would dance.We came up with all kinds of alternative ideas: I had a pianist perform for the ceremony and cocktail hour and then interspersed with me [DJing] during dinner, and we were going to use him for sing-alongs. We were going to do a trivia game about the bride and groom, and so on.

"You are going to make a speech, right?" A Few Do's and Don'ts For Giving an Impromtu Toast

Posted by Pat Hart in wedding traditions , wedding toasts , wedding planning , unforseen events , party planning , event planning , emcee , bar mitzvah toast

This past weekend, my boyfriend and I attended his best friend’s casual wedding, and — just like last year, at his brother’s family-only celebration — he was asked to give a toast. Ladies and Gentlemen, my boyfriend is a very, very kind man, but he is really terrible at speaking off-the-cuff.

Before each of these weddings, I had warned him that he would probably be expected to speak, but he felt certain that was off the hook since the events were so low-key… which he probably still believed up until he was handed the microphone.

With the economy down, I’ve seen any number of stories and reporter queries about people who barter their for services or items. If bartering works for you, that’s fantastic. But I will tell you, most companies that are larger than a few employees (EBE included) really can’t trade services for non-monetary payment except in certain, very rare circumstances.

Posted by Pat Hart in wedding band , stress management , philadelphia , party planning , party band , party , invitations , holidays , events , event planner , emcee , dj

Now that you’ve finished handing out candy to the last trick-or-treater and stowed your Naughty Nurse costume away ‘til next year, are you ready to launch into the whirlwind months of the holiday party season? Juggling family get-togethers, social obligations, and post-holiday party preparations in this generally hectic time of year can seem like a task more suited to a clown than a graceful host, but with some careful consideration, you can enjoy the holidays and still pull off a memorable event in style.
