Pittsburgh Sweet 16 DJ Enhancements

Every girl is different, and her Sweet 16 party should be unique to her style and taste! Whether your daughter is a girly girl and loves everything pink, or she’d prefer something unique, we will plan with you to create every detail to her personal taste. From the color scheme, the lighting, right down to the song your princess wants to make her grand entrance to, we’ve got everything covered.

Here at Galiffa Productions we can also offer extra enhancements as one of our Sweet 16 DJ packages. In addition to a kick-ass DJ for the evening, we also offer:

Whether you’re looking for a traditional celebration, a cool dance club party, or a sophisticated dance floor, we have the tools to make it happen, from wireless LED uplighting to custom-designed light shows and even moving monograms of your name.

The photo booth has quickly become a staple at parties large and small, from weddings to sweet sixteens. Pick from a selection of retro booths, outdoor booths, and even a wireless mobile booth to immortalize every special moment of your celebration!

The Pittsburgh DJ services we offer can be paired with high-definition (HD) LED televisions and projectors to show live music video mixing while guests dance the night away. 

Our Dancing on a Cloud feature will help you create a magical moment for your first dance as husband and wife, father and daughter, or any other special occasion. 

Using one of our indoor sparkler machines will bring your celebration to a whole new level of enchantment. We will create a fire display for your special occasion that is certain to turn any dance or other special moment into something out of a fairytale. 

You and your guests can dance the night away in style with the help of glow glasses, hats, and balloons. 

With the addition of our live percussionist option, your Pittsburgh DJ package will be filled with even more fun and excitement. 

Our skilled musicians can perform either the specific songs you request for the ceremony or a curated set list based on your preferences for the cocktail hour.

You can read more details about each service on our enhancement page about the extra features we can offer to make your daughter’s sweet 16 an incredible night!

"You see, every DJ gets the same opportunity. They get to DJ for four or five hours to entertain a crowd. The question is, what are they going to do in those four or five hours that’s gonna blow peoples minds away and make them say "wow this was the best DJ I’ve ever had. I’ve never seen anyone like this before!".  It's not about playing the newest music or having the most expensive equipment. It's all about how you use that time to engage with your guests and make sure they have a night they will never forget."

The above quote is something the Derek Galiffa often says to people when they are deciding on a DJ. Derek has been entertaining crowds since the age of 16 and has had a lot of time to perfect his craft. He knows how to read a crowd and keep the party going all night long. When he is not DJing for private parties and weddings, he is the official pregame DJ for the Pittsburgh Steelers where he has DJ’d every home game for the last 6 years out the back of an F150 pick up truck in front of a packed stadium with over 68,000 fans. You can read more about that in the Observer Reporter magazine here, and has also featured in Pittsburgh Magazine multiple times.

And we have other services to choose from which you can read more about here.

We will set the mood for your Sweet 16 with appropriate music, lighting, and fun activities like games, prizes, and contests. If she wants to make a big entrance, we’ll help her plan something that’s truly worthy of her. We will help bring her desired mood and theme to life if she has one in mind.

We can set up unique touches like illuminating her name in lights and projecting it onto the wall or dance floor like a nightclub. Together, the projected photo montage and photo booth will serve as the basis for a unique photo album that she will cherish forever. We promise to throw your special girl and her guests an unforgettable party.

You might be wondering the average cost for sweet 16 DJ, and we’d love to discuss this with you! Depending on the venue size, any enhancements you may choose, and the length of time you’d hire us for, we can provide you with a quote that everyone will be happy with. 

Get in touch with us using the form below, or get in touch via our contact page. We can’t wait to be a part of your daughter’s special day.

We could not have chosen a better DJ for our wedding in October 2021! From the beginning of planning our wedding to the day of, Derek was so professional and organized. He made every step easy to follow and thought of absolutely everything. At our wedding, he read the crowd perfectly and kept all of our guests on the dance floor all night. If you are looking for the perfect wedding DJ, I could not recommend Galiffa Productions enough.

We were lucky enough to have Ty DJ our wedding. He was very attentive to what we wanted. The pre-wedding meeting really helped all of us to be reassured that he was going to do a great job. He definitely lived up to our expectations. Our reception was an absolute blast! He knew just how to get everyone on the dance floor to have the best night ever. Thank you Galiffa Productions!!! It is certainly a night we will never forget!

The whole team was awesome! Firstly, they were so helpful and open to all the Covid changes that had to be adapted too, including a location fairly far from originally planned with only a two months notice. As far as the production, it was the best party DJ we have experienced. He had the perfect music flow and knew how to get people out there! Did everything we requested, and just like the planning phase he adapted on the fly and gave us everything as it came to our minds. We are now looking for reasons just to have a party to book him again! We couldn’t recommend him any higher, and think anyone that books them will not be any less than thrilled with their choice! Thank you guys again

Having a great DJ for our wedding was one of our biggest must haves and let me tell you Galiffa Productions did not disappoint. DJ Derek listened to things we wanted and didn’t want. It was hard to stop dancing as the bride who loves music and dancing. He also helped our best man coordinate an epic surprise best man speech to the tune of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Overall I would recommend Galiffa Productions to everyone!
