I’m so blessed!  Getting to work with couples like Jim and Kristen just drives that point home, I can’t believe that I get to celebrate week in and week out with so many awesome people.  Jim and Kristen had their ceremony and reception at Eaglebrooke Golf and Country Club in Lakeland Florida on July 18, 2009.  A Premier Entertainment was secured to provide sound for the ceremony and entertainment for the reception.  Jim and Kristen asked for me personally to be their entertainer and I was honored to be a part of their special day!  I also got to work again with photographer Tina Sargeant from Sargeant Studios.  Tina is awesome to work with and her photos are amazing … check out her blog (click here), can’t wait to see her photos of Jim and Kristen!

If there was any concern I had before this day, it was the weather.  We’ve been getting rain here almost everyday and the clouds were rolling in during their ceremony.   It held off until after they got their photos done (see the rain coming down in buckets at the beginning of the video, it even knocked out the power for a second).  The day couldn’t have gone any better!

They choose the following for their package:

- Entertainment Coordinator Package
- Uplighting
- D’Elegance Dance Floor lighting package
- Dancing Under The Stars Lighting effect
- Video Slide Show (we used the 40″ LCD Screen on a stick of truss instead of the 5×7 video screen w/ projector because of space and for effect)
- Basic Ceremony Package

Here are some of their highlights:

- Introduction: Ain’t No Mountain High Enough (parents), Smooth (Bridal Party), Balada Para Adelina (Love Story), Party Up! for Jim and Kristen
- First Dance: Lost In This Moment by Big & Rich
- Parent Dances:  It Won’t Be This Way For Long by Darius Rucker (Kristen’s dance with her dad), Song for Mama by Boyz II Men (Jim’s Dance with his mom)
- Cake: Sugar Sugar and How Sweet It Is
- Bouquet and Garter: Mission Impossible – Eye of the Tiger – I’m Too Sexy – Single Ladies – Girl Fight – Switch – (Dude) Looks Like A Lady

Tony and Melissa's 1st Dance!

Spent my July 4th seeing fireworks of another kind, the kind you only see between two people that are really in love.  That was the case for Tony and Melissa Lobozzo.  They held their reception at Eaglebrooke Golf and Country Club in Lakeland Florida and it was beautifully decorated.  Eaglebrooke is one of the premier venues in all of Central FL and as always the food and service was incredible!   The personal touches that Tony and Melissa did for their guests were incredible, from the personal notes on everyone’s place cards to the bible verses on the sweet tarts, it was uniquely them.

I was asked to play contemporary Christian music for guest arriving and dinner music.  It was well received by the Lobozzo’s guests.  Many of them complimented us on the selections and we even had a couple of the youth perform a dance to one of the songs they use in their youth worship, very cool!  Their photographer for the day was Jenny from KC Photography and it’s always a pleasure to work with one of our own!  Jenny did a great job and you’ll have to check out the photos when they get them up on their blog (KC BLOG).

Your going to have to watch the video to see just how much fun we had at this reception, the only thing that could have made it better is if we could have kept going!  Here are some of the highlights from the reception:

Intro: Get Ready for This and Peter Gunn Theme
First Dance: I Will Be Here by Steven Curtis Chapman
Father / Daughter Dance: Cinderella by Steven Curtis Chapman
Mother / Son Dance: Song For My Song by Mikki Vereck

The New Mr. and Mrs. Whatley

Another amazing wedding reception!  I had the opportunity to DJ for the Mele family again (I’ve been friends with Sally since we started our DJ business here in Florida back in 1998).  This time it was Erica getting married to her price charming … Donnie!   They held their reception at Eaglebrooke Golf and Country Club in Lakeland FL.  They ulled out all the stops, everything from the decor to the meal was perfect!  They hired my wife KC Photography’s own Christina Suit (Click to view KC Photography Website) to be their photographer (photos should be on their blog soon).  After we got past dinner the dance floor never emptied (a DJ’s favorite thing, yeah!).  Here are some of he highlights from the reception:
