A Rockin’ Summer of Celebrities

We thought helping to produce Lebron’s 25th birthday was awesome, but nothing compares to the opportunities we have had this summer working with local and national celebrities.

Our relationship with Barroom Cleveland has certainly offered us many opportunities to get involved with over-the-top celebrations for VIPs like Jason Derulo & Elvis Duran and the Z100 morning show. For Jason Derulo, Rock The House provided audio support for his spectacular performance and had a chance to spend a little quality time with him after the show.

Simply the Best: Cleveland Wedding DJ Entertainment

This year, Rock The House opened its doors to Northeastern Ohio’s Bridal Market.

After attending a handful of bridal shows including all of the Today’s Bride Shows, the Q104 Bridal Show , and Bertram Bridal Show, we decided to invite brides, grooms and their families to our offices in Oakwood Village for an open house & private showcase.

Take a virtual tour by watching this recap video from one our Bridal Open Houses & Private Showcases.

More than 40 couples were in attendance; they participated in a lighting demonstration, an introduction to all of our wedding MC’s, and a special sneak peek into our creative department to allow brides and grooms to see and understand how our videography & multimedia department works.

The brides & grooms were excited and open minded about up-and-coming wedding trends like lighting as décor, video production, photo favors and DJ/MC entertainment.

We are so excited for this year’s bridal season to begin. Our Emcees & DJs can’t wait to see smiling brides and grooms who are pleased with Rock The House results.

Rock The House Gives Back!

Being Northeast Ohio’s premiere entertainment company for Mitzvah’s, Weddings and Corporate functions doesn’t come without a fair share of responsibility. Sure, we at Rock The House Entertainment are responsible for 100 percent client satisfaction, the well-beaing of our talented employees and those pesky financial responsibilities that allow us to keep an ‘OPEN’ sign in the window, but RTH, too, feels a philanthropic responsibility that connects us to the community which has generously embraced us for over the past 10 years. With that, ‘RTH Gives Back’ was born.

Demonstrating compassion and desire to help others, RTH Gives Back contributions include at-cost services, discounted packages, and other donations to community events.  Each of our staff members willingly participate by offering their time and commitment to these efforts. Most recently, RTH Gives Back took on ‘Spinfest.’

For the 2nd year in a row, RTH donated its time and services to raise money for the Free Clinic. “Spinfest” features more than 50 bikes each crankin’ away for over two hours while Rock The House’s very own CEO and Founder  Matt “Hadder” Radicelli spun the music in his own way.

20373_461163915392_784060392_10895869_270517_nRacicelli says, “Even in the wake of a perceived recession, our employees never cease to amaze me. They continually step up to the plate for the many charity functions of RTH Gives Back. It’s a true testament that not only does Rock The House have the best interactive entertainers in the business, but also the biggest hearts. As a CEO, as well as a community member, I couldn’t be prouder.”

Other notable RTH Gives Back events of 2009 included ‘Pink The Rink’  where 20 RTH staff members volunteered their time at the Quicken Loans Arena to perform during a Lake Erie Monsters game.22450_315278376419_298117391419_5296776_6099366_n

At ‘Menorah Park Dance-A-Thon,’ kids and elders alike danced the day away to music spun by RTH DJ’s in an effort to raise money for the Cleveland Clinic Children’s Hospital. “Market Underglass” is a fundraiser for the Cleveland Foodbank. RTH donated sound design, digital signage and ‘Photo Magic.’ The list goes on…

Look for Rock The House to be Giving Back at these events and plenty more in 2010. For more information on RTH Gives Back or to request that Rock The House Gives back to your event, visit ROCK THE HOUSE online or call 440.232.7625.

Rock The House Rock Star: RYAN KONIKOFF

Today we want to reach out to one of our RTH staff members who has had an amazing opportunity thrown his way.

The office has turned itself upside down during this holiday season and also due to the fact that our fierce leader- Matt Radicelli has been preoccupied with a new addition in his life… Annabel Elise is the newest addition to our Rock The House family and we are so happy to have her join us- CONGRATS, MATT!

Because Matt was out on paternity leave for the past 2 weeks, all RTH office staff members had to step up their game. One of them reached RTH Rock Star Status.

Our witty and intelligent Talent and HR Manager, Ryan Konikoff stepped up to the plate and took Matt’s spot on a webinar hosted by photographer, Rich Pappas entitled: Save Time and Money Planning Your Wedding. At the webinar brides and grooms could literally plan their weddings in their underwear… from the comfort of their homes.

Over 100 brides listened to Ryan give a thoughtful and well executed presentation about event design, production, lighting and entertainment.

Ryan was in the company of other event Rock Stars like Jim Frericks of Today’s Bride Magazine, Scott Stachiw of Moonstruck Productions, Rich Pappas Photography, and Joshua Seth, weight loss guru.

Thanks, Ryan and the rest of the RTH Design Team (Tim Frankish for SURE) for going above and beyond and representing Rock The House in an exciting and fulfilling way. You are a Rock Star!

Cleveland Entertainment – Reflecting on the Past, Looking to the Future

Rock The House Entertainment recently held its Q4 meeting to reflect on the past few months of Cleveland Corporate Events, Cleveland Weddings, Cleveland Bar Mitzvahs & Cleveland Bat Mitzvahs, and to get ready for the exciting first quarter of 2010.

The day began as the RTH emcees got together to talk in detail about the quality of their recent events, interaction with their clients, and ways to improve their performances and overall level of service. By the end of the emcee meeting, two things were abundantly clear:

1. RTH Emcees care about their clients and they are passionate about the work they do.

2. RTH Clients are consistently noticing #1.

The emcee meeting was followed up with the Annual Employee Holiday Luncheon. Nearly 50 RTH DJs, Emcees, Party Motivators / Dancers, Technicians & Office Staff members shared a meal and had a chance to mingle before getting down to business.

Ryan Konikoff, Rock The House Creative & Talent Director, led the meeting as he introduced 5 new staff members.

Matt Radicelli, company founder / owner, thanked everyone for their hard work and dedication, then pointed out that while it’s important all year long, during the holidays, it’s especially important to be thankful of our family and friends. Without them we are nothing; and we should never  take them for granted. Radicelli then awarded Steve Tanruther the “Employee of the Quarter Award” in recognition of his hard work and dedication in getting the company’s new event management & scheduling software online – a step that has drastically increased the efficiency of the office and has added convenient online tools for our clients.

The group then reviewed the past few months, discussing successes and areas needing improvement, changes and additions to company policy, upcoming Rock The House Gives Back events, safety training, and finally continued education & testing.

Each RTH employee was asked to demonstrate their skill sets in a do-or-die, pass / fail environment. Any employee that did not pass their tests is to be retrained, and retested before they can be scheduled.

The day finished up with the Rock The House Party Motivators holding dance practice. After the group finished their warm ups and reviewed their routines & sequences, it wasn’t long before they circled up and had a freestyle jam session.

The Q4 meeting was a huge success. 2010 here we come.
