Megan and Alex chose the beautiful Carolina Inn in Chapel Hill, NC on June
21st for their ceremony, cocktail hour and reception with Melissa
Sayre from the Inn, planner extraordinaire Erin
McLean and photographer Cyn Kain.
After a wonderful ceremony by minister Ed Sansbury and music
by Arioso Strings, the 180 guests
made their way to the hall of the old well room for food and drink.
The doors to the ballroom opened and I had a mix of soft
rock and classic soul playing as guests found their tables.
I introduced only Megan and Alex to ECU’s theme (I wore my
pirate cufflinks for Alex) “Purple Haze” and people started clapping along
until the doors opened and there was a thunderous roar when they came into the
room. They went directly into their
first dance of “Swept Away (Sentimental version)” by The Avett Brothers. Megan’s father then welcomed everyone for
coming and her Grandpa Charles said the blessing. The 3 course meal of appetizers, salad and
entrée’s came out and I continued a soft rock and R&B mix for dinner.
After dinner we had the Ashley’s
cake cutting to “This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)” and toasts by the Maid
Of Honor, Best man and Alex’s father.
Megan then joined her father on the floor to dance to “What A Wonderful
World” and Alex escorted his mother to the floor to dance to Van Morrison’s
“Have I Told You Lately”.
I opened the floor with “My Girl” and it filled with young
and old. The floor stayed filled with family, friends, fraternity brothers and
sorority sisters the entire 2 hours. We
stopped briefly for the bouquet toss to “Single Ladies” and garter toss to “Let’s
Get It On”. A few of Megan’s sorority
sisters sang a song to her backed up by the groomsmen, then back to
dancing. The night ended with Sinatra’s “The
Way You Look Tonight” and AC/DC’s “You Shook Me All Night Long”. They made their exit through thrown rose
petals from the front of the Inn.
What a fun night and I am so happy for them! Thank you for having me as your DJ Megan
& Alex !
