The ceremony was held earlier in the afternoon at Sacred Heart Church. After the ceremony the 110 guests had a short break before heading over to Prestonwood for the cocktail hour and reception. This gave photographer Sarah Morrell and videographers Kissing Toad Productions plenty of time to get some shots. After the cocktail hour the guests made their way to their seats and awaited the introduction of the wedding party.
I introduced the parents to “Celebration” and wedding party to “Bring ‘Em Out” by T.I. They lined the dance floor and Laura and Connor had their first dance to “Thinking Out Loud” by Ed Sheeran. The parents dances followed with Laura and her Father first. They danced to “What A Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong. Connor escorted his Mother to the floor for their dance to “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” by Brother IZ. Laura’s Father welcomed everyone and Connor’s Grandfather blessed the meal. The salads and entrees came out and I played a mix of rock and classic soul during dinner.
After dinner we had the toasts and then opened the floor for an hour before the cake cutting. During the first part of dancing I started with Motown and top 40 that soon filled it. We paused for the cake cutting (complete with Mr & Mrs Wuf topper) to “Lucky” by Jason Mraz and then back to dancing to top 40, 80’s and hip hop. Laura also surprised Connor with a visit from Mr Wuf himself who also presented her brother Sean with his diploma from NC State! So great!!
We ended the night with a huge sing a long to “Sweet Caroline” before a sparkler exit and a drive off in the Father’s beautiful car. What a wonderful evening!! Thank you Laura and Connor and congratulations.
