Historic Jackson Ward Celebrations

Entertainment Designed for a One-of-a-Kind Theater

The historic Hippodrome Theater offers a distinctive Richmond setting for weddings, receptions, celebrations, corporate events, and private functions. Sarah’s Choice designs music, announcements, audio, and event flow around the theatrical room, stage, timeline, and guest experience.

Professional DJ & MC

Personalized music and confident announcements guide guests through formalities while honoring the venue’s performance-driven atmosphere.

Clear, Balanced Audio

Professional sound and wireless microphones can support ceremonies, welcomes, presentations, speeches, toasts, and dancing.

Coordinated Event Flow

We work with the Hippodrome team, planner, caterer, photographer, and other vendors so technical cues and major moments align.

The Theater, The Speakeasy, and The Speakeasy Grill

The venue promotes several settings for special events. Confirm the contracted space, room access, guest plan, catering, and current amenities directly with The Hippodrome.

From Ceremony to Last Dance

A Complete Wedding Entertainment Experience

Each phase receives an intentional soundtrack and the appropriate audio support while remaining connected to one carefully coordinated celebration.

Ceremony

Prelude selections, processional and recessional cues, and wireless microphones help vows and readings reach every guest.

Curated background music maintains the desired atmosphere at a comfortable level for conversation, service, and dining.

Reception

Introductions, formal dances, toasts, cake cutting, open dancing, and the final song are managed with confident pacing.

Theater Production Logistics

Coordinate Existing Systems and Outside Equipment

A performance venue may offer house sound, lighting, screens, and other technical features. We confirm what is included, what the venue controls, and what Sarah’s Choice should provide.

  • Contracted room and stage confirmation
  • Venue technician responsibility review
  • House sound and lighting assessment
  • Vendor arrival and load-in planning
  • Power and cable-path confirmation
  • Microphone and presentation needs
  • Parking and guest-access planning
  • Setup, rehearsal, and strike schedule
Enhance the Experience

Lighting, Monograms, and Guest Engagement

Enhancements are chosen to complement the historic theater, contracted room, existing production features, and current venue policies.

Uplighting & Intelligent Lighting

Add architectural color or dance-floor energy when additional equipment works with the house lighting plan and venue approval.

Custom Monograms & Projection

Display names, initials, event themes, or custom visuals when suitable surfaces and technical arrangements allow.

Photo Booth Experiences

Create interactive guest keepsakes with placement coordinated around entrances, bars, dining, the stage, and traffic flow.

Coordinate with the Venue

Confirm Technical and Event Details First

Space availability, capacities, house sound and lighting, screens, catering, bar service, parking, vendor access, event hours, and production policies can change. Confirm all current arrangements directly with The Hippodrome.

Sarah’s Choice will then coordinate its scope with the venue team to prevent duplication and build a clean entertainment plan.
