I was looking so forward to
playing for Nicole and Jon’s wedding Saturday at The Stockroom in downtown
Raleigh NC! They are the nicest couple
and I loved their music picks.
They were married the day
before, so this was more of a wedding celebration party. The guests started arriving before Nicole and
Jon and I had a mix of indie rock and classic soul playing. Nicole & Jon were waiting in the top
floor’s Glass Box to be announced into the room. Everyone arrived and I was ready to get the
introduction going.
I only introduced Nicole
& Jonathan and they came in to thunderous applause and had their first
dance. Nicole’s father then joined her
for their dance and Jonathan escorted his Sister to the floor for their
dance. The salads came out and the
buffet opened. The Rocky Top dinner was
so good!!!!! As always.
After dinner we had toasts
and a heart felt thank you by Jon, then the cake cutting. After that I opened the floor with some
oldies and top 40 that was soon filled for the next 2 hours. I played a mix of oldies and Motown, top 40
and hip hop, some 70’s & 80’s, a few line dances and even New Kids On The
Block for Nicole & her childhood friends.
We ended the night with a huge sing a long circle to “Piano Man” and
“Sweet Caroline”.
This was one of my favorite
weddings, and not one I, or the guests, will soon forget!
Another amazing event!! Thanks for getting them and keeping them on the dance floor!! I got some amazing pics! Always a pleasure working with the best! Casey
