I was so happy to be able to
play for April and Danny’s wedding at The Washington-Duke Inn! They are such a nice couple and have one of
the sweetest and prettiest daughters, Maria!
Because of the forecasted
weather, they chose to have the wedding ceremony inside. Minister Barbara Lodge did a prefect job as
always and the ceremony was very touching and included their daughter in the
sand ceremony. After the ceremony
Barbara invited guests to the front foyer for cocktails and hors
d’oeuvres. I had a mix of top 40, soft
rock and classic soul playing. When pics
were done guests started making their way down to the ballroom for dinner and
dancing. The room looked beautiful with
arrangements by Lyn at Fresh Affairs.
I introduced the wedding
party and April & Danny and they came right to the floor for their first
dance. After that Danny welcomed
everyone and his Uncle David blessed the meal.
The salad, soup & entrées came out and I continued the same music
mix as cocktails.
After dinner we had the
Ashely’s cake cutting followed by the champagne toasts. April then joined her
father on the floor for their dance and Danny escorted his daughter to the
floor for their dance. I invited all the
married coupes to join them for a “longest married couple” dance with the
winners at 51 years married. I then
opened the floor to everyone with some Motown and top 40 that had both sides of
the families, young and old, filling the floor.
It’s always such a great feeling to see everyone having so much fun
dancing together!
We paused briefly for the
bouquet toss, then back to dancing to top 40, hip hop and some line dances
until the end of the night.
This was one of my favorite
weddings, and not one I, or the guests, will soon forget!
It was great working with you again, Randy. You are such a kind professional - and so knowledgeable about music. You have a deft touch that always keeps the musical backdrop at a perfect pitch for each moment. I am not surprised that you had everyone up and dancing. Congratulations to April and Danny and congratulations to the 51 happily married years couple!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy with our choice of Randy Bennett as our DJ for our special day. We could not have asked for a more professional fun filled DJ. The music was incredible and we danced the night away. Thank you so much for making our night a time to remember! We highly recommend Randy to any bride and/or groom looking for a DJ that will help create incredible memories.
