I was so thrilled and honored
to DJ Chuck and Andy’s wedding at The Umstead Hotel! They are a great couple and both their laughs
are just infectious!
The ceremony was held out
back overlooking a beautiful pond with live music by Scott Schillin. After the ceremony, the 140 guests made their
way to the pre-function area inside and out for cocktails and passed hors d’oeuvres
while photographer Adam got some pics.
After the cocktail hour the
doors to the ballroom opened and guests found their seats and got ready for
Chuck & Andy’s introduction. They
came in and thanked everyone for coming and the soup, salads and entrées came
out. During dinner I played a mix of
soft rock, standards and classic soul.
After dinner we had the cake
cutting that was delivered to each table with a custom cookie of Chuck and
Andy. So great!! After a few toasts I opened the floor with
some Motown and top 40 and the photo booth opened in the hallway.
For the next couple hours
guests packed the floor to top 40/dance music (lots of Lady Gaga), 70’s and
80’s. We ended the night with Donna
Summer’s “last Dance” but they weren’t ready to leave yet. So, I played it again while the guests made a
circle around them and danced with them.
This was one of my favorite
weddings, and not one I, or the guests, will soon forget!
