Congratulations Daniel and Bailey

This was the most wonderful wedding day with the most wonderful couple! The ceremony started at a beautiful church, with candelabras running down the aisle and candles and floral arrangements at the altar. When the post-ceremony photos were finished, Bailey and Daniel and their wedding party left for the church in a vintage trolley.

When the guests arrived at the reception, they first saw a pretty mirror holding their table assignments. The wedding colors were white and shades of pink, so the tables had white, floor-length cloths and soft pink napkins. The centerpieces were assorted vases with submerged flowers and floating candles nestled among greenery. At each place setting there was a place card and a box of candy. To add to the wedding colors, we had pinkish purple uplights giving the room a flow of color. For a personalized touch, we projected a custom GOBO monogram with Bailey and Daniel’s names and wedding date on it.

Bailey’s delicious wedding cake was three, stacked, white tiers accented with pink and white flowers. Daniel’s groom’s cake was amazing! This couple loves to hike, so the cake looked like Enchanted Rock in Fredericksburg, with two hikers on the top and an edible tent and backpack at the base. Around the cake there were cupcakes decorated to look like little campfires!

This group loved to dance and there were people on the dance floor from the first song to the last. They also took tons of pictures in our photo booth – where they had a great time! After the last dance, the newlyweds shared a private last dance while the guests were outside lining up for the exit. Daniel and Bailey then ran through the guests and headed off in a vintage limousine.  Congratulations!

Congratulations Adam and Amber

This wedding reception was held months after the couple had a small, private ceremony, but it was still elegant and fun! The guests arrived to see tables with white floor-length cloths. On top were gold chargers and black napkins in gold rings. Each place setting had a black menu card on the charger and a black seating assignment card on the table.

A unique aspect of this reception was the bar. There were actually two bars: one was serving traditional drinks and a separate bar was just for bourbon. All the guests got their drinks served in custom glasses with the newlywed's names on them in gold. The three-tiered, white wedding cake had simple, elegant frosting lines on it, and the topper was a custom statue of the couple and their dog. It really looked like them! Near one bar, there was an elegant ice sculpture with the couple’s last initial on it.

Amber and Adam chose to skip many of the usual reception elements like first dance, parents’ dances, and bouquet and garter. Instead, they really wanted to spend their reception visiting with friends and family and dancing. And that’s exactly what they did. Amber was dancing all night long! After a fun night of dancing, the couple said goodbye to their guests before heading off together. Congratulations Adam and Amber!

Congratulations Anthony and Annette

This was the most amazing wedding and we had the pleasure of providing DJ services, Day of Coordination and a photo booth. The ceremony was held in the beautiful Sacred Heart Church, with a soloist singing. A trolley dropped the wedding party at the church and, following the ceremony, drove them to the reception venue. The wedding colors were dark eggplant and blue, so the bridesmaids wore floor-length eggplant dresses and the flowers were white with eggplant colored flowers accented with blue.

The reception was beautiful as well. The tables had floor-length eggplant-colored linens and napkins, and the centerpieces were stacks of books. This couple loves to read, so in addition to the stacked books, there were favors of custom book marks and the guest book was a picture of a book case that guests signed.

Annette’s three-tiered, stacked, gorgeous cake matched the book theme, as two of the tiers were wrapped with edible book pages. This couple loves movies as well, so Anthony’s round, groom’s cake had edible movie posters running around it. Everyone loved the cakes!

The reception tied in elements that reflected the couple’s heritage. For Anthony, mariachis played during dinner. Then for Annette, we did a Second Line as a nod to her Louisiana roots.  Anthony and Annette carried umbrellas, the guests waved their napkins, and everyone danced through the ballroom. The Second Line was fun! Once the dancing began, it was a good mix of music for everyone. Our photo booth was a hit, as everyone was in there all night long. For a unique touch, the lucky lady who caught the bouquet was presented with a Lego kit that makes a floral Lego bouquet. Obviously, this couple loves Legos in addition to movies and books.

When the night came to a close, the newlyweds ran through guests waving ribbon wands, climbed into a horse-drawn carriage, and headed off to their new life.  Congratulations Annette and Anthony!

Congratulations Matthew and Kimberly

This spring wedding, with the colors of lavender and white, was so pretty. For a perfect touch, our purple uplights gave the room a gorgeous purple glow. The day started with the guests entering to see our custom welcome mirror. They then enjoyed a sweet ceremony held under a beautiful crystal chandelier. The bridal party wore lavender floor-length gowns while the guys wore grey suits, white shirts and lavender ties. They looked great!

The dinner tables had white, floor-length cloths topped with lavender runners. Each featured a vase filled with sand, seashells and fairy lights. After dinner and the toasts, we moved on to the cake cutting. The white cake had tiers on clear glass separators, each tier accented with purple, lavender and white flowers. When it came time for dancing this crowd enjoyed everything from oldies to pop to country. When the night came to a close, the couple made their exit through a tunnel of bubbles. It was a perfect day. Congratulations Kimberly and Matthew!

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!
