South Florida Gig Log and Event DJ Venues

                     Welcome back to another post from South Florida gig log. We hope that everyone is enjoying their Christmas, Hannakuh, Quanzaa, or whatever holiday you celebrate. We have had a busy December and holiday here at our company. The holidays always bring a mixture of weddings, parties, corporate events and holiday company events. Feel free to checkout any of our other blogs for ideas on your next event venue.                        Our next post takes us to the Delray Beach Marriott in Delray Florida, just 15 minutes north of Boca Raton. It's a gorgeous ocean view on Ocean Blvd and Atlantic Ave. You can't get any closer to the beach than this. As you pull into the hotel there's Valet available with an overhang covering so you won't encounter any weather problems while dropping off your guests. There's a gorgeous pool and jacuzzi outside for you poolside layabouts.                               As you walk through the main doors the lobby is a gor

                          The day started off about 3:30pm with gorgeous breezy weather. The setting was River Cottages in Jensen Beach Florida. We were helping run the audio for the ceremony and perform the MC and DJ duties for the reception. Our ceremony system was setup over on the lawn area facing the inter-coastal waterway. We had a small bridal party with 3 groomsman and 3 bridesmaids. The cute little flower girls set the entrance of the bride as they came down the aisle.                            After about a 10 minutes ceremony the guests headed over to the reception area underneath the large canopy for cocktails and drinks. The bridal party and family stayed over by the lawn for group photos. We had background music playing with a nice mixture of tropical beachy style music to accommodate the guests and set the mood. We were setup with a fantastic view behind us of the inter-coastal waterway and a long dock right out to the water. Definitely a great place for some pictures

                              And we're back for the next season with another post on great venues and event locations. Now that everyone is getting back to school and the fall is near, we are gearing up for new places to have events and new experiences with venues all around south Florida. As we expand our services north and south we are trying to go into more places in Miami, west coast of Florida such as Ft Myers & Cape Coral plus Vero Beach and even Central Florida. So we invite you to hire our company and experience some of the great venues we had the pleasure to perform at.                               This next blog takes us to a cool little building tucked away near downtown West Palm Beach. It's right near the PBIA Palm Beach International airport. The Knights of Columbus 7025 caters to a number of different event types. We had the pleasure of providing music for a Quinceanera. It has very easy access to the building for guests and party vendors. You can go righ

                               We hope that everyone is enjoying their summer and getting ready for the fall, whether it's performing at events or looking for a place to have an event. There are hundreds of choices in the south Florida area and especially looking for the perfect location for your guests, convenience of setup and a great staff willing to make your event amazing.                                Our company got to work at a great venue this week. Located in the heart of North Palm Beach, Florida situated right by Palm Beach Gardens, Jupiter and West Palm Beach FL. North Palm Beach Country Club is a great place for an small to medium size event. They can have a variety of Weddings, Sweet 16s, Birthdays, Anniversaries and much more. NPB Country club features a golf course, a bar & lounge area as well as a front room foyer area to welcome your guests. As you drive up to drop off your passenger,s the main entrance has an overhang to pull right up and stay dry in

                                       On to our next destination at a quaint clubhouse off the main road of State Road 7 in Boca Raton Florida. The Boca Dunes Country Club is a nice quiet setting in a laid back community on a golf course up on a hill area. Boca Dunes Country Club is great for numerous different types of events and has 2 levels in the building. We had a successful and fun wedding on a Sunday there just recently.                                       As you drive up to the main doors of Boca Dunes it has a nice size overhang area with drive through so you can drop off and pick up your guests. This helps for those of you avoiding that unpredictable weather here in south Florida. As you walk into the main room in the front it has a nice staircase going down to the bottom floor. The main second floor is great to have multiple wedding activities such as; ceremony in one room, cocktail hour and reception. There's a smaller room great for ceremonies and a main reception

                                 We have been super busy with graduation parties and now wedding season. Many of the popular places we have wrote about have had us back for more events and parties. There are so many great options to choose from in the South Florida area. That's why many of the customers we have are from other cities and states coming down for a destination wedding or party.                                    One of our newest hotels that we had the pleasure of working at was The Westin Resort Ft Lauderdale Beach Florida. If you're looking for that destination wedding feel and relaxing beach setting, this place is definitely worth looking into. You can't get any closer to some of the nicest beaches around. Right across the street is a full view of the ocean and then on the west side of the hotel is a great view of the inter-coastal waterway (the best of both worlds). As you drive up to the main entrance of the hotel there is valet parking to assist you in

                              So we're finally getting back to writing after a hectic month of performing at numerous venues. Many of the venues we play at are ones we've been to previously but it's always nice to go back and experience even more. This past weekend we had the opportunity to work at the well known Colony Hotel on the island of Palm Beach. It overall was a very relaxing, fun and upscale experience. Definitely a 5 star setup with a great location and easy access.                               The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida is definitely the high end, elegant and classy wedding or party venue you and your guests would enjoy. The facility features a gorgeous setting with pool, patio area, tiki style bar and lounge near the pool area. You can have your ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all in one place. There is an area right on the lawn with a nice walkway to the side. You can setup an archway and chairs right near the reception area. The outsid

                                   Here's a nice venue that we finally had a chance to write about. It's in the heart of Lake Worth Florida and is a situated in a large community with condos and residences. The Fountains Country Club is a very upscale facility within a gated community that has everything you need to have a lavish event. This is a fairly formal venue and is nice for much larger events.                                    The Fountains Country Club has a nice open layout with large entry way and hallway. The facility has valet parking for your convenience and a large overhang drive up area so you can drop off your guests. The Fountains has automatic doors that open at the front which is super convenient for anyone with a wheelchair or anyone bringing equipment or party props in. As you walk into the building to the right of the hall are the restrooms. These are some of the nicest restrooms I've seen in my career. Plenty of space for getting dressed and t

                                        This weekend we had a chance to work another event at the Village Golf Club in Royal Palm Beach Florida. Situated in a quiet, country side looking area in the Palm Beach area surrounding a Golf course. This venue is great for anyone in the West Palm Beach, Wellington, Loxahatchee, Acreage and surrounding areas. This facility is a nice upscale building which is great for a number of different events such as; Sweet 16s, Quinces, Birthday parties, wedding receptions, anniversary parties and more.                                          The Village Golf Club is a fairly large venue capable of having a comfortable 90-100 guests with a full size bar and nice open room. The building has vaulted ceilings and nice views with windows surrounding the main room. As you first walk into the main door the clubhouse has a long open hallway leading to the party room on the left side. The restrooms (which are nicely setup for changing attire for the party) are

                                                Another rendition of South Florida gig log brings us to a nice venue with different options available. The Royal Palm Beach Cultural Center is a catering hall and special event facility out west of the Palm Beach area in the Royal Palm Wellington area. It's conveniently located on the main road and close to the airport for those of you having guests fly in from other places. The building is simple enough for a small birthday but large enough for a large corporate event or school dance.                                                  The Royal Palm Beach Cultural Center has a nice roundabout driveway that takes you right to the main door. It's so easy to bring in food, party props, equipment and anything else you need. The main door takes you into the full size extra large party room that has a stage for performances and lots of room for seating, tables and a dance area. This is quite a large room capable of holding 150-200 peop

                                        On to our next venue and we've had the opportunity to work at various new facilities. It's great to be able to share the experiences we've had throughout the south Florida area to our party planners, brides & grooms, party goers and more. This is a simpler venue for those of you looking for a medium size place to have your party or wedding and want something affordable and easy to access. The Elks Lodge 2166 in Boca Raton Florida is a block north of Glades Road right on Federal Highway. It's a small building with 2 parking lots, one on the front and one on the back. The lounge & bar of the facility is up front at the main entrance and through the back of the facility is the banquet hall.                                       As you first walk in to your left it goes straight in to the dance floor area. Pictured is a head table for a bridal party and to the right are the additional guest tables. Comfortably this banquet

                                        Here's a venue that is one for the record books. The Mara-largo club in Palm Beach is Donald Trumps very own Florida home and country club on the island of Palm Beach. This venue is extravagant and boasts a 5 star upscale banquet hall, spa, pool, multiple levels, golf course and several rooms for functions. It's centrally based across a bridge on the east side of West Palm Beach just miles from I-95. This can help with your travelers by car and it's within 10 minutes of the PBI airport. The home was the former owners of Post cereal brand and was later turned into a historic spot in Palm Beach later bought by Donald Trump.                                         As you pull into the main gate of Maralargo, the front looks like a small palace. For those of you brides and grooms or anniversary party goers that are looking for amazing service and a king & queen atmosphere this is definitely an idea to check into. There is a val

                                         For the next posting we got to perform at a new facility and as always got to take in the setting of this venue we've had the pleasure of working at. The Royal Poinciana Chapel in Palm Beach Florida right on the island, is a very upscale and elegant place to have your wedding reception. For those of you looking for a venue in the west palm beach area this is a great idea for a location for everything; Wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, reception.                                           Royal Poinciana Chapel is located on the island of Palm Beach right next to the Flagler Museum. It's fairly easy to get into and parking is available throughout the facility. You have a couple of options, you can get married in the chapel area or outside on the gorgeous lawn area under the large trees. They also have a very nice patio area with overhang where your cocktail hour could be held. They have house music built into the facility or you can

                                             For my next post I want to talk about a new facility I had the pleasure of working at. The venue Pietros on the River is located up in the Jensen Beach area on Hutchinson island. It's great for anyone living in the Stuart, Jensen Beach, Port St Lucie and even Ft Pierce areas. It's right on the intracoastal waterway and the outside part of it is very upscale.                                               The venue features a golf course, gazebo, pool and several rooms for events. For medium size weddings and events this is a great place to look into. The building also features a drive up overhang for dropping off guests and of course staying dry in the ever changing Florida weather. As you first walk in the door the restrooms are on the left side and have nice areas for changing clothes, (for you musicians and guests) and on the right side is another smaller party room and the main office. In the main hall it has a gorgeous pian

                                           Our next post is all about a hidden venue that more and more people are discovering as a popular wedding place and even company party facility. The Mansion at Tuckahoe which is the former Coca Cola owners home in the early 1900s is a extremely large home on a hill overlooking the intracoastal waterway of Jensen Beach. This building was remodeled in the 2000s and turned into a popular banquet facility for many brides and grooms, party planners and corporate events.                                             The building features 2 stories with dressing rooms for weddings, a split bottom floor in the center with a larger room for dancing and dinner and the other side of the wall for a bar and gift area. The building has a full room setup for a buffet and on the other side of the building is room for lots of guest tables. There is a drive up area for dropping off guests or parking at the bottom of the hill. Staff has been on hand to brin

                                                  Here is the post that I've been waiting to write and many of my customers have wanted to hear about. I have worked here hundreds of times over the years and my experience with every event is always a little different. Benvenuto's Catering and banquet hall of Boynton Beach Florida. Originally Benvenuto's was a restaurant that people could have dinner at and they also catered to parties and weddings. Now Benvenutos Boynton Beach is completely all weddings and special events.                                                    Benvenuto's Caters to 4 specific types of events; Weddings, Sweet 16s, Bar & Bat Mitzvahs and Birthday Parties. I've had the opportunity to perform for all these kinds of events at this facility. If you're looking for a traditional party venue that is extremely close to I-95 and the main roadways, this is a good place to look into. The main entrance has a large parking lot out front

                                       Finally another edition of our blog from a new place that we had a chance to work at. I personally have not had the pleasure of performing at the Sundy House in Delray Beach Florida until this past weekend. My other DJs performed their in years past and enjoyed the great scenery. The Sundy house has some history based upon the venue and this is a great little getaway for those who want a small south Florida paradise with a taste of rivers, trees and cute gazebos.                                        I was told that originally the Sundy House in Delray Beach Florida was the home of the first Mayor of Delray Beach, Florida. This home was remodeled more recently and turned into a hotel cottage type of venue with a restaurant, bar and lounge in the separate buildings and lush green natural areas throughout the facility. If you're a bride and groom looking for great photos to remember by, this is definitely worth checking out. The venue h

                                           In this article I'm going to be telling you about the very well know in the Treasure Coast area, Indian Riverside Park in Jensen Beach Florida. I know quite a bit about this venue as I've played events over 30 times here and also got married myself here. The facility is situated right on the intracoastal waterway in a wide open park area on basically an island. This building is a 2 story building which holds the main reception party room on the second floor. Indian Riverside Park is great for that tropical ocean beach wedding you want on a small to medium budget. Let's take a close look into Indian Riverside Park's reception facility.                                              From what I recall you have to rent the facility from the parks and recreation center of Martin County. The cost is roughly a little over a thousand to rent out. I believe you can rent the facility for 4-6 hour periods. The building features both
