Congratulations John Paul and Cristina

 

What a fun wedding reception!  This couple wanted to have a great party and they had it!  First, the details. The colors of the day were red, white and gold, and they were all so pretty.  The tables had gold satin floor-length cloths with gold chargers and red napkins. The centerpieces were lanterns holding candles, surrounded by red and white flowers.

Cristina’s four-tier, white stacked cake was so elegant! It had smooth frosting, with a few red and white roses accenting it and making up the topper. John Paul must be into Frisbee golf, as his groom’s cake was a Frisbee golf field. It was so cool. To add to the cool factor, we had a GOBO monogram with Cristina and John Paul’s names on it. One thing everyone loved was when Cristina disappeared and came back wearing a short, fringed, white dress with white cowboy boots. She was ready for fun!

For dancing, the crowd loved everything and at times they were jumping up and down!  We always love to see that.  After a private last dance, the newlyweds ran through a tunnel of sparklers before heading off to their new life together.  Congratulations John Paul and Cristina!

Happy Birthday Emma and Gigi


This birthday party was a combination party for Emma and her mom Gigi. We provided the DJ entertainment at Emma’s wedding a few years ago and she asked us to be a part of her birthday celebration. It was great seeing her again! With 80 guests in attendance, the party was a wonderful way to celebrate mother and daughter. After a delicious dinner, they cut their two birthday cakes, and then dancing was underway. We played a variety of top hits from the 50’s to current, and that was perfect for the crowd of all ages. To add to the fun, there was a photo booth backdrop for everyone to use. We all had a great time celebrating Emma and Gigi’s birthdays!

Congratulations Patrick and Moni

This wedding reception, with a Christmas theme, was so pretty! The colors of burgundy, dark green and gold added an elegant accent. The tables had floor-length burgundy tablecloths and white napkins. Each place setting had a gold charger with a green or red burgundy Christmas cracker favor. The centerpieces were wreaths with lights, and inside them were candles and assorted Christmas themed items. They were all surrounded by more candles. All the pillars in the venue were wrapped in white fairy lights and the stage featured garland of greenery and lights. To go with the theme, there was a Christmas tree on the stage, with red and gold presents underneath. There was a display of wrapped presents, greenery and lanterns in front of the stage. The room was a Christmas wonderland!

The five-tier, white wedding cake matched the theme, with red poinsettias cascading from the top to the bottom. The topper had a bride and groom in front of a Christmas tree and the cake sat on a gold stand. The bridesmaids matched the colors, as they were wearing beautiful floor-length dark green dresses, and the groomsmen wore dark green vests and ties under their black tuxes. The bouquets were gorgeous, with white roses, red berries and assorted Christmas greenery. They smelled wonderful! I loved Moni’s elegant gown: it was long sleeved, floor length, white satin with no embellishments except for a bling belt. It was classic and timeless and perfect for Moni.

For a special treat, the caterer brought out empanadas as a late-night snack. The dancing was a hit, especially when there was a square dance! Moni had the mic and called out the moves while the guests danced. That was fun! Following a private last dance in the ballroom, the couple went outside and made their exit under a shower of bubbles.  Congratulations Patrick and Moni!
