Naples DJ: April 2015

TIPS FOR A GREAT RECEPTION:

1.) Have the bar in the same room as the reception. People tend to naturally gravitate to the bar, so keeping it in the room will keep them near the fun.

2.) DJ by the dance floor! Your DJ & the sound system needs to be at the edge of the dance floor. Do not make the mistake of having the DJ place the loud speakers a distance away from the dance floor. Playing music over & thru the guest tables can make for an uncomfortable experience.

3.) When arranging the seating chart, it's important to have your relatives seated close by. It's a great suggestion to not have Grandma and Grandpa sit in front of where the speakers may be placed.

4.) You are the party. When you dance, the dance floor will be full. Realize that if you spend your time visiting or outside, your guests will be wherever you are at. So dance all night!

5.) Arrange with the catering manager to have some hors d'oeuvres and your favorite drinks ready for you and the bridal party immediately after photos. You'll be glad you did.

Brandon and Victoria 1.31.2015

Brandon & Victoria found us on the Internet to plan their destination wedding here in Naples, Florida at The Inn at Pelican Bay. When we met with them in advance of the wedding to go over the order of events and music they described how they wanted their reception to be "Low key and Fun"! They also advised us that they would like some Arabic and Spanish music so, they provided us with some of their choices on a CD to be incorporated into the evening. It was a great night for an outdoor wedding reception!

Some of the Vendors that we worked with: Artichoke and Company, Kay at the Inn at Pelican Bay and Victoria and Brandon's photographer was Greg and Lexy whom were friends of theirs.

The music they chose for the Introductions was a Mariachi band song and the Bridal Attendants had fun form an arch for the two of them to walk in to. The First Dance Song was "Our Love Is Here To Stay" Louis Armstrong / Ella Fitzgerald. Father / Daughter Song, "Vals Para Una Novia"- Alejandro Jaen (A Spanish Waltz). Mother / Son Dance was "Child Of Mine" Carol King. Big Band type music was played for dinner. The rest of the evening was a lot of dancing! They were very thankful to us and we were honored to be part of their wedding celebration.
