Weddings and Events in November at Northern Beaches PA Hire

Pacific Club Wedding, SurfAid Sumba and Halloween

A busy Weekend with Northern Beaches PA Hire

Summer has arrived and we are feeling the heat in the sunny northern beaches of Sydney. The warm weather means weddings and outdoor events are kicking in as the longer days and warm evenings are more agreeable than winter evenings.

The Pacific Club in Palm Beach 

A great spot for a wedding with a great 50's style Colonial fit out it surprised us with its laid back style but efficient staff and wonderful views.

   
We organised a Roland BA 55 battery powered system to play music and allow the 50 or so guests to hear the celebrant and the couple exchange vows. High wind was a problem so a dense pop filter was slipped over the microphone to calm the noise from the wind.

We also setup powered speakers with Ipod inputs at the Pacific Club for the reception in a courtyard to allow the reveling to keep on till late into the night.

Palm Beach is a great wedding destination if you are thinking of getting married there take into account the travel time and parking as it can be tricky on a weekend!

    Surfaid Sumba fund raiser at Bill Buckle's private home

Surfaid is a great organisation and is making changes around the world with its clean drinking water initiatives and other projects.

Surfaid Sumba was raising awareness and money to improve the drinking water in the the surfing mecca.

We provided a projector and screen along with microphone and speakers to show a short video and allow the speakers to be heard in this wonderful beach side setting. The main priority for the event was simplicity and fail safe performance on the night  so we tested all the kit before the event and checked it all again insitu 

The event was a great success and the profile of Surfaid Sumba was raised locally.

Halloween and Northern Beaches PA Hire    

We were running flat out all weekend to various Halloween   parties and bands playing at house parties and small venues, what i noticed is the problems of feedback through the mics in a lounge room with wooden floors and no damping from any surface was a bit tricky with a room full of demons and monsters!

Behringer B112w update from the hire dept

We have hired 14 of the workhorse Behringer B112w's  for 2 years now out every weekend and are very impressed with how they have survived the general abuse they have received.

These speakers come back covered in sand, beer, spirits and wet through to a point where i'm slightly reluctant to turn them on!

So far we have had one tweeter blow which is impressive, the cases look god still and the bluetooth function works perfectly , if you are after a decent cheap speaker that will last then you cant go far wrong with these

Positive Feedback

Always nice to have happy customers, it costs us nothing to look after each person that comes to us for advice to hire or purchase. Contact us on 0407 498 970  

Joel from Northern Beaches PA Hire was unbelievably helpful when I purchased my portable PA speaker system. He was extremely knowledgeable and forthcoming with his advice.

He made me feel at ease and confident with the technology, giving me personal tips and followed up to check I was comfortable afterwards. 

I am extremely happy with the service I received from Northern Beaches PA Hire & Joel wen't above and beyond.

Weddings at Long Reef Golf Club and The Boathouse 

If you are planning to get married this Summer or Autumn then start by making a list of all the things you will need, somewhere at the bottom or scribbled in the side will be "audio" quite often with a question mark.

Usually the groom will be tasked to "sort something out with his mate in a band who has a speaker in the garage"

This speaker will either not work or be turned into a rabbit hutch or something similar and will let you down on the day.

 We normally get a panicked phone call a week out from a bride that has taken things into her own hands at the 11th hour to make sure the job of "audio" gets sorted.

We can always help out and make it happen and have over 50 powered speakers, 20 wireless mics 

and 10 battery powered systems ready to go and can be delivered anywhere on the Northern Beaches.

If you want to talk to us early in the planning we can offer free advice and access to our network of proven companies involved in the Wedding industry we know all the venues and supply companies on the Beaches and can help you make decisions early in the planning that will save time money and stress.

Good For Manly with Northern Beaches PA Hire and Ulterior Motive

Sept 26th Manly Oval, 500 people 3 musicians an Independent Councillor on a mission to stop Manly Council dig up this patch of green and "Put Up A Parking Lot" 

Councillor Candy Bingham is always a voice for the people's view of what is good for Manly. Sometimes opposing the Council's stance on redevelopment in the area she engages the people who live and pay the rates into the council coffers.

This protest was no exception 500 - 600 people turned out in unpredictable weather to listen local super tight trio Ulterior Motive warm up the crowd with some great tracks from the 70's that had the Baby Boomers singing along to Sweet Home Alabama etc. culminating with a rendition of Joni Mitchell's Big Yellow Taxi with emphasis on the "Parking lot".

  

We used minimal kit  3 Behringer B112w powered Speakers with a Eurorack mixer, Beta 58 and Sm 58 mics. The guys turned up and played and we quickly worked out that playing in front of a roofed Grandstand had a unique effect on the sound especially with the speakers on high stands filling the space with surprisingly clear  and warm sound from such a small improvised rig.

The three band members who are all professional muso's commented on the sound from the small speakers i had chosen to use , mainly because of the weather idecided to use light small speakers that could handle some rain and punishment and not cost the earth to replace. 

I have quickly found the Behringer B112 speaker a versatile reliable speaker with around 14 hired each week some coming back looking like they had been attacked by a group of Kindergarten kids, super reliable with one tweeter out of 14 blown once in a year of hire that works for me! Compare that with 14 JBL speakers and you would have a hard time keeping your running costs that low.

The event was a success for all concerned and we packed away dry and without incident.

Ulterior Motive  are a great band for the thinking persons wedding or party, playing popular diverse quality music which can be hard to find these days.

The Fun was non stop at The St Mary's School Disco In Manly

200 people gathered in the playground to hear the teachers rock the party.

we used a pair of JBL PRX 612s which was plenty of sound in the courtyard environment and allowed the parents to be in a quiet spot at the side!

 A Pioneer DJM 800 connected to two Macbook Airs streaming You Tube and Vimeo on to the screen and through the mixer as audio allowed some fun for these first time Djs.

Small led light rig added some magic with some great looking Led par cans under the stage.

A great event marking the end of the Second World War September 2nd 1945  

The mayor of Warringah Michael Regan was on hand to proceedings on a lovely Spring day

at Dee Why Beach.

The numbers my be dwindling but the message of war and the sacrifice of the people who served and supported the campaign is not lost at these events.

The ever reliable Roland BA 55 with Wireless mic and ipod connection  provided ample clear sound to the 50 or so people present.
