Joanne and Paul were wanting a little something different.  They wanted their family and friends to have a great time, but they didn’t want to use all the usual song  choices.  It worked great!  I wish I could show you the video, but as was the case for my last couple blogs, my dog ate my video camera so you’ll just have to look at all the pretty photos!  The held their reception at the Tampa Yacht and Country Club, it’s a beautiful venue and they were great to work with!

Here are some of the musical highlights:

1st Dance: We Have All The Time In The World by Louis Armstrong
Last Dance: What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrongs

I knew I’d love working with Michell and Natalie when I saw that Michell’s email address was: iamasexymitch@xxxxx.xxx.  Absolutely classic!!  This reception was lots of fun (wish I had my video camera to show you, but unfortunately my dog ate my camera).  Their wedding reception was held at Arbor Reception and Event Center in Arcadia (might not be open any more as I was told this was the last event they were doing before shutting down their doors), it was a neat venue … I hope that someone else keeps it open!  Got to work with Pam from Southern Exposure and Paul & Matt from Motion Video (always a pleasure to work with all 3 of them).

I don’t get the opportunity to work for people I know before they become clients, so that is why this one was so special for me!  Both Courtney and Jason go to the same church that my family does.  It was crazy seeing so many people that I knew at their reception, such a blast!  Ashly Olivier (pulling double duty as both Courtney’s Maid of Honor and as her wedding planner ) did an amazing job with the decor and it’s always a pleasure to work at Lake Ashton!  We provided the lighting decor as well as the entertainment.  I got to work with my good buddy Arnoldo as we worked as the DJ / MC combo.  It was a blast of a night, you should check out the video and photos below (Arnoldo shot all the photos for this one).

Talk about bringing down the roof!  Amber and Andy had rented a massive out door tent to cover all of their guests / dance floor / and food, but God had another plan.  The rain and wind damaged the tent, forcing them to have to relocate only a couple hours before the beginning of their reception.  Under the competent leadership of their wedding planner Ginibeth Henderson (GiniBeths Weddings and More) and with the help of her family and friends, they were able to turn the Golf Cart Garage into an impromptu wedding venue.

Most brides would have lost it, but Amber was truly graceful, taking everything in stride.  She was the life of the dance floor later and their guests had an incredible time!

Was it perfect?  No, but it was amazing to see so many people working together to make Amber and Andy’s reception something to remember!  It’s a reception that I won’t ever forget and under any circumstances, this reception would be considered a total success, but with everything that went on … this is a reception that will go down as EPIC!

Their Package was our Entertainment Coordinator Package with LED Light Show and Monogram.

Some musical highlights:

It’s always cool when you can mix work with a vacation!  That is what we were able to do with Chrissy and Chuck Piper’s wedding reception on April 30, 2011.  They had their reception at the KOA in Okeechobee FL.  Since it was a couple hours away from our office, me and the family took our camper and made a weekend out of it!  I had never been to the KOA before, their conference center was pretty good for a camp ground.  Chrissy and Chuck must have invited all of Okeechobee cause the place was packed!  Lots of dancing and fun for all this night.  We also provided them with our photo booth (Snap Yourself Silly Photo Booths).  They even had a friend perform their 1st dance song for them, it was truly a unique and fun reception!

Sara and Bryan Zelenenki had their reception at the Kenilworth Lodge on April 16, 2011.  They are my kind of people, not just because their reception was a total high energy blast, but also because they love Great Danes too (we have 3 adult Danes and we breed).  I don’t know if I’ve ever seen Keniworth Lodge look better then for their reception.  We left it all out on the dance floor, you got to check out the video on this one as well as the photos in the gallery.

I love working at Eaglebrooke Golf and Country Club in Lakeland FL.  I can honestly say that I’ve never had a poor experience there and Joleen and Nick Yunker’s Wedding Reception on March 26. 2011 was no exception.  They were such a sweet couple and the group of family and friends they invited to the wedding were great to work with.  It was a wonderful evening, I’m so very blessed to have so many awesome clients!

Jenn and Brian are such a great couple, if only I could get Brian to like the Buc’s instead of the Dolphins … seriously though, this couple was wonderful and I was so happy to be a part of their celebration.  The had some last minute shuffling of venues and ended up at the Music Ranch in Lakeland.  The venue is better suited for a small concert then a wedding reception, but with a little uplighting and great attitude, the place worked great!  We did the ceremony outside and the reception on the inside.  Once we got to dancing, the floor stayed packed until the very end (actually past the end as we I did an extra set because I was having so much fun).

Their package was the Entertainment Coordinator, ceremony, uplighting, and a small LED Dance Floor Light Show.

Shana and Brandon had one of the coolest wedding receptions I’ve ever been a part of.  Not only did their lighting package look amazing at The Castle – Holiday Inn Orlando Resort, but how often does the King come to your reception?  Yes, Elvis was in attendance and he honored the couple with several of his greatest hits.   When we got to the dancing portion of the reception, their choice in music was awesome!  Check out the video to see for yourself

I had the pleasure of being the DJ for Scott and Shawna Whitener’s wedding reception at the Admirals Inn in Winter Haven FL on February 27, 2010.  Shawna and Scott might have been the most laid back clients I’ve ever worked with.  They put their total trust into my hands to do whatever I wanted with their reception.  All I received as requests from them were the 1st dance song and both parents dance songs.  Lots of responsibility, but I enjoyed the creative control

The reception went fantastic!  The guests had a great time and I even offered Scott a job if he’s ever interested (he did the best Groom thank you / introduction of his own bridal party that I’ve ever seen, I wish I would have taped it!).  Check out the photos and video, I truly enjoyed being their DJ / Master of Ceremonies and it’s always a joy to work with the staff at the Admirals Inn.  I also had the opportunity to work with Donna from Everlasting Memories Photography, very nice to work with and extremely professional!

So please enjoy the photos, check out the video at the bottom (don’t forget to leave great comments, lol), and as always … enjoy!

In case I haven’t said it lately, I love my job! I get to work with wonderful couples on one of the best days of their lives. Curtis and Ashley Gillilan allowed me the honor of entertaining them and their guests on February 20, 2010 for their wedding reception. They held the reception at their grand parents home and it was beautiful! Once again I got to work with 3 of Highland Counties best wedding vendors. Gini Beth Henderson from Ginibeth’s Weddings and More was the wedding coordinator and she pulled of another amazing event!  Alex Gilliard was their photographer and is always awesome to work with!  Check out his blog of Ashley and Curtis’s wedding (click here).  The catering was done by the caterer from The Palms in Sebring FL.

Incredible couple … amazing ceremony and reception! I got to perform for one of our own DJs here at A Premier Entertainment, Mr. Josh Fain and his lovely bride Kelly. The got married (and held their reception) at Crystal River Church of God in Crystal River Florida. They had about 150 of their closest family and friends there to celebrate with them. It was a magical evening and I was absolutely honored to be a part of it! The gym area of the church was decorated whimsically with Christmas lights, the food was delicious, and the guests had a wonderful time hamming it up for the photobooth (Snap Yourself Silly Photobooths – 863-324-7333).  When we got to the dancing, it was off the chain!!!  Josh was the perfect groom, on the dance floor and leading the party.  I had so much fun, it was such a blast!

A Premier Entertainment was well represented at Sarah and Aaron Whitaker’s wedding reception as myself, DJ Kyle Davis, and my wife Christina had the pleasure of working with this great couple and their family.  We not only got to provide the entertainment for the reception, we also brought a small light show and our newest, coolest enhancement … Oh Snap! Photobooths.  We had such a great time performing for them at the Quality Inn Conference Center in Sebring, FL.  The night was magical, love was in the air (not to mention snowflakes … in Florida)!!!  Not many people can say they got married in Florida while it was snowing, lol.  To see all the fun we had, check out the photos and video below.  Also be on the lookout for my next blog which is all about their photo booth experience!  Remember to leave some love on the bottom of the page and as always … enjoy!

I had the pleasure of doing the very 1st event at Sun N Lakes new facility in Sebring FL.  The new place is beautiful!!!   Our company has worked with Sun N Lake for the last few years doing their membership events, but this was the 1st time that I personally got to perform for them.  Megan and her staff are tremendous to work with!!!  Everything and anything I needed they were there to take care of, just a wonderful experience.  The members are an absolute joy to perform for.  I received lots of great requests and they danced to everything.  In fact I had a full dance floor before dinner was even served.  Just a terrific evening and a perfect way for a Disc Jockey to ring in the New Year.  If this is any indication on how 2010 is going to be, it’s going to be an amazing year!  Thank you Sun N Lake, hope to see you all again really soon

Below are some photos and the video recap of the evening.  Please leave positive comments if you like what you see … Happy New Year … and as always, enjoy!

This was my 1st time working with Centerstate Bank (in fact this was the 1st time that they had a DJ for their Christmas Party) and I have to say that I had so much fun with this group, I can’t wait to be asked back next year!  They held their party at Lake Region Yacht and Country Club (one of Polk Counties best kept secrets for having any type of party) and they did it up right!  Their buffet looked amazing with a Prime Rib carving station to boot!  For desert they had a make your own strawberry short cake station, delicous!

As for the party, we hit the ground running!  My dance floor was packed almost the entire night, it was fantastic!  There was an awards ceremony in the middle of dancing and even when that was over we picked up right where we left off, with a packed floor!  One of the branches even had their own dance to Stayin’ Alive (you got to watch the video to see how cool that was).  This was such a great group and the perfect way to end my events for 2009!

I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Blessed 2010 … see you next year!  In the mean time, enjoy the photos and videos from this party, leave me positive comments (you know I love em’) and … as always, enjoy

And now for the video

This was my second time working with the Lakeland Cancer Center (our company has been doing their Christmas party for the last 5 years).  These are such great and caring people, it is truly a privledge to work with them for a celebration.  This year they held their party at the Hilton Garden Inn in South Lakeland on December 12, 2009.  The facility if beautiful and the staff it top notch!  Everything looked perfect (and the food was mmm mmmm good, lol).

As for my set up, they got a great package, we had video and lighting and it definitely enhanced the atmosphere.  All of the photos I was taking at the party went right up to our screen and we played some music videos for the more popular dance songs.  The light show covered the entire room and added to the festivities.  Some of the dancing highlights were the YMCA, the Cha Cha Slide, Cupid Shuffle, Ain’t Too Proud to Beg (4 of the Drs. came up and did their best Motown group impression).  Great time with an awesome group of people.  I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I get to work with them again next year.

As per their request, there is only photos from this party, no video.  I wish them and all of my readers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  Enjoy the photos

I had the pleasure to DJ this past Friday at the  Chain of Lakes Complex in Winter Haven FL for the State Attorney’s Office Christmas Party.  Gini Beth Henderson from GiniBeth’s Weddings and More handled the food and the decor and did an amazing job as usual!  I brought out a small light show along with the audio to make things more festive.  This group was a little slow to warm up, but once they got going it was a blast!

This was my 1st Christmas Party of 2009 and it was a great way to get into the spirt of the season.  I’ve already signed up this group for next years party, can’t wait

Here are some photos of everything,  if you like, please leave me some my blog some love by leaving positive feed back … and as always, enjoy!

This past weekend Arnoldo and I had the pleasure of working with Matt and Kali Morgan for their wedding reception.  They held it at Eaglebrooke Golf and Country Club in Lakeland Florida (if you have read any of my past blogs, you know that I love Eaglebrooke!  It’s such an amazing site and the staff is excellent.)

Matt and Kali were looking for something different.  They wanted a very elegant, cocktail style reception where the focus was on the guests mingling rather then on dancing.  We played lots of crooner style music (Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Michael Buble) mixed in with some country and motown.  If the guests danced, it was a bonus as long as it was in that style.  We did have some dancers (you know there are hard core dancers at every reception, God love em’), but for the most part it was everything that Kali and Matt wanted and hoped for.  I was excited to be able to deliver for them as they are both wonderful people!

Funny side note, Matt’s brother Kyle (the best man) was in my office just 2 days earlier with his lovely fiance Elizabeth.  They booked our services for a reception in 2010, but oddly Matt and Kyle never spoke so neither knew that our company would be entertaining both receptions.  It’s a small world indeed!

What a wonderful couple, Sara and Bobby were so easy to work!  It was a gorgeous Florida fall night, the food was excellent, and when we got to dancing, this crowd was lots of fun!  This was A Premier Entertainment’s 1st time peforming at the Grant Bly House in Deland Florida.  I was glad that I got to be the DJ, not only were Sara and Bobby super cool awesome, but Debbie and the crew at the Grant Bly House were so easy to work with!  Sara’s dad officiated the ceremony and did an excellent job!  So many personal touches by the bride and the groom ranging from a slides show (we provided the LCD TV to show the slide show) to the trivia questions left on each table for the guest to play during dinner.

Some of the highlights:

- 1st Dance: When You Say Nothing at All by Keith Whitley
- Parents Dances: I Loved Her 1st by Heartland and Perfect Fan by Backstreet Boys
- Cake Cutting: How Sweet It Is by Marvin Gaye
- Last Dance: Waiting On A Woman by Brad Paisley

I would also like to thank both Sara and Bobby for their service to our Armed Forces.  It’s wonderful people like these two that defend our great nation and pay the price for our Freedom.  I appreciate them and what they do so unselfishly for me and those I love.  Thank you!

Just got back from Brian and Erica Rabeau’s reception at the Rusty Pelican this past Saturday night.  The place was decorated to the 9′s and we added to the decor with our uplighitng, monogram lighting, and dance floor lighting.  It looked amazing!  We got to work with Jenny from KC Photography and it’s always a pleasure, can’t wait to see her photos!!!  The staff at the Rusty Pelican was wonderful to work with, I had been in contact with Don and have nothing but great things to say about him.  They turned the room over in a blink of an eye and helped my crew and I make things look fantastic!

We set up a photo slide show with remote sound in their cocktail room and then when it was time for the reception to begin, all the guest came over to the Grand Ballroom where we were set up.  After the introduction we were served dinner (the food was excellent) and all the formalities happened after dinner.  Once we opened the dance floor though, the party went into overdrive.  So many fun people, we had a blast!  I had Jonah and Amanda from my company with me and they did a great job as always!

Some of the highlights of the evening:

1st Dance: At Last
Center Piece Give Away: Yakety Sax
Introduction: 20th Century Fox and 2001 Space Odyssey
Last Dance: It’s Your Love

I truly enjoyed getting to know Brian and Erica.  They are such special people and I know they are going to have an amazing life together.  Hope to get asked back for their 25th wedding anniversary party   Check out the photos and video below.  Please remember to leave positive comments …. and as always, enjoy!

Oh What a Night!  I had the honor of being the DJ for Laura and Clayton Carter at the Kenilworth Lodge in Sebring Florida on September 18, 2009.  They choose Gini Beth Henderson from Gini Beth’s Weddings and More as their wedding coordinator and let me tell you, she did an amazing job!  I’ve worked with Gini Beth several times and she is such a pleasure to work with. Every detail was perfect and it makes my job so much easier when I can focus on entertaining … thanks Gini Beth!  They had Ellie Kurz from Kurz Photography (our company has worked with Ellie before, but this was my 1st time) and she was wonderful to work with as well.

The room was jam packed with friends and family.  The food was delicious and right after dinner they cut and served their cake which was also delicious.  After the formalities we opened up the dance floor and it stayed packed all night long.  I had so much fun at this wedding … check out the video below all the photos to see just how awesome a night this was.  Please remember to leave positive comments for feedback … and as always, enjoy!

Kyle and I worked together to DJ a small party for eBridge Solutions.  We brought our our game show system as well as karaoke for a night of celebration.  eBridge is one of Tampa Bay’s fastest growing companies and they were celebrating their 8th anniversary.  For a small group, they were so much fun.  This was the best Game Show event we have ever done!  They had so much fun and so did we.  Check out the photos and the video to see for your self.  Amazing night!

The New Mr. and Mrs. Bennett!

We were given the opportunity to DJ for Mark and Rhonda Bennett’s wedding reception.  Mark and Rhonda are such nice people and their family and friends came out to celebrate with them for a brunch reception.  They held everything (ceremony and reception) at the Holiday Inn on North 98 in Lakeland.  The room was decorated very nicely and things went very smooth (with the exception of the Omelette station, which was a hit, but they only had two pans going so it did bottleneck the line, but well worth the wait).  KC Photography handled capturing all their important moments.

Some of the highlights of the reception:

1st Dance: Can’t Help Falling In Love With You – Elvis
Cake Cutting: Love and Marriage
Rhonda’s Dance with her son Dennis: Because You Loved Me – Celine Dion
Mark’s Dance with Denise and Iris: My Girl – Temptations
Bouquet and Garter: Let’s Get It On for removal, Rocky and All Shook Up for the Garter, My 1st My Last My Everything and It’s Raining Men for Garter, Pink Panther for Replacement
Last Dance: 1st Time Ever I Saw Your Face by Roberta Flack
Grand Exit: Na Na Hey Hey Goodbye by Steam

Justin and Megan ... so much in love ...

Justin and Megan Tighe’s wedding reception was unbelievable. It was our 1st time as the DJs at Bilmar Beach Resort, but the staff made us feel right at home. The ceremony was outside (I have to give major props to Megan and all the guys in tuxes as it was a heat index of 103 when the ceremony began, but they didn’t so much as complain once) on the beach. After the ceremony they came into the Beach Bar (it was air conditioned thankfully) where after an amazing dinner, Megan and Justin’s party became legendary! Check out the video (if it’s not up yet, check back in a few days), Arnoldo did an unbelievable job with his playlist. So many fun songs that rarely get played at wedding receptions and the dance floor was eating it up! Here are some of the detail highlights:

- 1st Dance: Can’t Help Falling In Love With You by Elvis (which is awesome since Justin’s brother Jim is an Elvis impersonator)
- Daugher / Mother Dance: Song for Mama by Boyz II Men
- Son / Mother Dance: Forever Young by Bob Dylan
- Cake Cutting: 8 Days A Week by The Beatles
- Bouquet Garter Songs: Bad Touch, I’m Too Sexy, I Wear My Sunglasses At Night, What Is Love, Girls Just Want to Have Fun, Fire Burning, Switch / Mr. Bombastic
- Last Dance: At Last by Etta James

Lake Placid getting Krazy on the dance floor!

Lake Placid High School’s Prom 2009 “A Black and White Affair” held at the Chateua Elan in Sebring FL was AWESOME!  Your’s truly, DJ Special K kept the dance floor packed from beginning to end!  We played songs straight from the charts, old school favorites, and lots of great fun dance music.  We had our 9×12 screen showing music videos, theme photos, and shoutout.  It was the hottest Prom in all of Highlands County this year.  You got to check out the photos (very elegantly decorated).  They also had dinner and when they had their deserts, mmm mmm mmm good (cheese cake, traditional cake, and an ice cream bar).  I had such a amazing time performing for the students and working with their staff (special thanks to Mr. Kevin Whitney, Lake Placid’s Prom Sponcer 2009 … you are The Man!).   Video and photos are below, please make sure to leave great feed on the blog if you like what you see.  As always … enjoy

JW Mitchell's Night of Excellents Awards Show

This is the 2nd year in a row that we have produced JW Mitchell’s “Night Of Excellents” Awards show and it couldn’t have gone much better!  We brough out a 10.5X14 foot screen (which we run the power point presentation, photos of artwork from their Art Department, and live video feed), 2 live video cameras, lighting for the presenters and for the audience, and sound reinforcement so everyone could hear perfectly!  We cranked our lights up 13 feet in the air to give the best coverage.  We didn’t get any footage of the actual program as we were too busy making sure that everything behind the scenes worked in order to allow the presenters to do the best job possible!  Only a couple of photos and a short video showing off the setup.  If you like what you see, please leave feed back on the blog and as always, enjoy …

A Premier Entertainment DJ DJs DJs and KC Enterprises Photography Photographers for Wedding and Reception.

We truly enjoyed meeting so many wonderful brides at the PC Bridal Exhibit and Market Place on March 1st, 2009.  I took a couple photos and some video from the show.  I was told there were over 300 brides in attendance.  Our company provided the stage lighting, the sound for the stage, sound for the seminar room, and the monogram that was above the seminar room.

Also, I got the opportunity to share with my very own seminar … Tips to an Awesome Reception.  All in all, it was a wonderful day.  I look forward to meeting with many of the brides that signed up for a consult at our booth.  Enjoy the photos (Check back for a video soon)!

One of Allison and Steve's personal touches.

This may have been the shortest wedding reception I’ve ever performed, but I had a great time with it.
Steve and Allison are down to earth people that love their classic rock music.  Steve specifically requests that any music that might be played on Oprah Winfrey Yatch need not be played, I got a chuckle out of that.  This reception only had one dance and that was the 1st Dance to which Steve and Allison dances to Maybe I’m Amazed by Paul McCartney.  We did their introduction to For Those About To Rock by AC/DC.  Any reception that you can play Led Zepplin is alright in my book   They had cajan style food for their meal and it was a little spicy, but very delicious.  Thank you Allison and Steve for allowing me and my company (A Premier Entertainment) to be a part of their celebration.  Make sure to view the video at the bottom of this page!
