Traci and Grayson had their wedding reception in The Old
Well room at Chapel Hill’s historic Carolina
Inn with planner Kelley Ann from A
Southern Soiree and photographers Jonathan and Stephen with McCardell Photography. Their 11am ceremony was held at University
Presbyterian, and guests then headed over to The Carolina Inn for the social
hour, dinner and dancing. For the
cocktail hour I had a mix of standards and Christmas music playing. I even wore Grinch cufflinks since this was
my last wedding before Christmas with my family in NY. 
Traci’s mother came into the room to see it before everyone
and was in tears of enjoyment as soon as she walked in. It was so sweet! Lyn from Fresh
Affairs had decorated the room beautifully!
After the social hour guests made their way into the black and white
room and found their seats. The wedding
party was lined up and I introduced them into the room to Hall & Oates “You
Make My Dreams Come True”. They went
right into their first dance to “Come To Me” by The Goo Goo Dolls. Traci’s father welcomed everyone and
Grayson’s father blessed the meal. The
salads and entrée’s came out and I continued a mix of standards and Christmas
music during dinner.
After dinner, we had the Sweet Memories cake cutting to
“How Sweet It Is”. Traci joined her
father on the floor to dance to “Unforgettable” by Natalie and Nat King Cole
and Grayson escorted his mother to the floor to dance to “Have I Told You
Lately” by Van Morrison. I opened the
floor to everyone with “The Cupid Shuffle” that filled the floor with the
wedding party and guests. Some motown
and current dance music kept them dancing until the bouquet toss to “Single
Ladies” and garter toss to “The Pink Panther Theme” then back to dancing to
some 80’s and current until the last dance to “New York, New York”.
What a fun crowd and couple.
Thank you so much Traci & Grayson and congratulations!
