Kelly Stroburg - simply put - is a tour de force in the West Michigan wedding scene. 

In addition to serving as owner/editor of the wildly popular Grand Rapids Bride Magazine, Kelly also organizes the annual Grand Rapids Wedding Affair - the creme de la creme of area wedding shows. 

Next years show will take place Friday January 8th from 5PM-9PM at the Grand Rapids Public Museum. 

Having scoped it out this past year as an attendee - I can tell you first hand - this is not your average wedding show. 

Curated swag bags, delicious food, signature cocktails and free valet parking are highlights of this event that can be simply described as Elegant, Upscale, and Sophisticated. 

The A-List team is thrilled to announce we will be a part of next years event, and look forward to the opportunity to showcase our services to prospective brides and grooms at this amazing event which shares so many of our core values.

The A-List Event Group team was honored to be selected as official entertainers and event hosts for the first annual TLC Wedding Show in Kalamazoo, Michigan.  We supplied the show with sound reinforcement, uplighting, emcee and music services for the inaugural events, "runway shows."  

Large scale events of this type require large scale production - and the A-List team has sound and lighting capabilities unrivaled in the mobile market.

Whether you are hosting or attending an event...there is nothing worse than; 

a. your message not being heard or,

b. not being able to hear the message being conveyed.  

We believe as event organizers, nothing is more crucial than conveying your message clearly - but far too often, this isn't the case.

As event organizers, you have put a tremendous amount of blood, sweat and tears into your event, and nothing is more disheartening than calls of "we can't hear you" from crowd members.

Even worse than sounds levels that are inaudible, are sound levels that are distorted - as a result of pushing a sound system beyond its capabilities.

For this particular event, we utilized;

8 Powered Speakers.

4 Wireless Uplights.

2 Intelligent Light Fixtures.

1 Custom DJ Booth with 55" LED Monitor to display event specific branding.

1 DJ/Event Host

1 A/V Technician

2 Assistants  

At your next event, make sure your message is conveyed clearly.  Put our expertise to work for you and experience #lifeonthealist.

Yesterday afternoon, our team was honored and privileged to be shown around an amazing new wedding venue for 2020.   James Slott and his sister Nicole recently opened the doors of the Black River Barn in South Haven - and were blown away by what we saw.  This 350 person venue - built from the ground up with no expense spared - was breathtaking.  A few things that immediately caught our eye during a most impressive walkthrough; 

State Of The Art In-House A/V System. 

Dedicated Bridal Suites for both the bride and groom. 

Upper and lower level patio space. 

3 Fireplaces. 

Outdoor heating system. 

Dedicated ceremony space. 

State of the art kitchen and bar facilities. 

Immaculate decor throughout - down to the restrooms. 

A friendly, knowledgable and accommodating staff. 

Located one hour from Grand Rapids and two hours from Chicago, this venue exudes class and elegance from top to bottom.  For more information about this state of the art venue, visit www.brbsouthhaven.com, and let them know the A-List Event Group sent you!  We cannot wait to create one of a kind experiences for guests at this one of a kind venue!

The A-List Event team was thrilled to provide pre-fight entertainment for Wilder/Fury 2 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Grand Rapids.  Our award winning team of professional disc jockeys love adding value to events of all shapes and sizes.
