Monte Verde Inn Wedding - Foresthill Wedding Dj

Sacramento Wedding DJ

This past Saturday afternoon, we played for Suzanne and Bill at the awesome Monte Verde Inn in Foresthill, CA.

It was the first warm day this spring, and 85 degrees felt like 100 because we weren't quite used to it yet, but it was sooooo nice out!

Suzanne and Bill are country music lovers, and we played a heavier set of country music for the dance hour, which was in broad daylight!

Although it felt a bit foreign to end early, I'm quite sure that they and their group had evening plans in store.

My best to Bill and Suzanne.

Two Weeks-Six Weddings Sacramento Wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

I had a super busy early April, and because time won't let me blog about each, I thought I would just highlight elements that were super cool.

At Courtney and Thomas' wedding Sunday at Croatian Center, we had sooooo much going on! Something that really worked (that I rarely implement), was Sing-For-Your-Supper. Instead of opening it up to all tables, I limited it to only fice tables, and MAN did they fight to sing and get to the buffet!

At Erica and Chris' wedding Saturday at Elks Tower, a highlight was when I called out all bachelors for,the,garter removal. I played 'Jump On It' and the boys choreographed their pony dance, and it was a riot!

At Rachel and Reeds' wedding Friday at Forest House Lodge, they danced solid for 2.5 hours...and wanted more!!

Going back to Sierra and Shannon's Sunday wedding at Monte Verde Inn, what was really cool is what a reunion it was for all there. The newlyweds live out of state and had never even seen MVI before,wedding day! They were thrilled.

At Roxanne and Joshs' Saturday,wedding at Old Sugar Mill, their custom introductions of their wedding party were awesome, as was the killer danceparty!

Lastly, at Fridays' wedding for Katherine and David at Citizen Hotel was a fun one for me, because the newlyweds didn't expect much dancing, and we rocked it all the way to the end. Thwy sent me a thank you note stating their surprise and joy with the outcome.

More to come!!

Citizen Hotel Sacramento Wedding - Sacramento Wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

I had the cool pleasure of playing at the Citizen Hotel Sacramento two nights in a row! So, Saturday night was when Randie and Jeff became a married couple, and we had a blast!

Their ceremony was in the ballroom downstairs, and cocktail hour in Scandals Lounge, with the reception upstairs in the Terrace, whadda place!!

We had our photobooth in action upstairs, and we lit the room in amazing fashion, let me explain.....First, we shut off the chandeliers in the room, and lit the canopy above in hot pink. We uplit the walls in Terrace as well as the entry way and hallways in amber. Then, we spotted each centerpiece, the bar, the cake and the photobooth so they would stand out (as you can see above). It looked absolutely stunning.

Jeff, in our planning meeting, was fearful that no one would dance....hehe! I had news for him! We had dinner, we had two really nice toasts, Randie's brother sang them a song that brought the house down, we had a fun contest to give away the centerpieces, they cut the cake and made a speech, then the party was ON!!!

We had a full floor for 2.5 hours.....STRAIGHT! My kind of danceparty, loved it!!

Citizen Hotel Wedding for Brandon and Jacelyn - Sacramento Wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

As you can tell, I love me a full dancefloor!! We definitely had that at Brandon and Jacelyn's wedding Friday night at the Citizen Hotel Sacramento.

They had provided me an extensive list of music, which entailed R&B Pre-Ceremony Music, Dinner R&B chill jams, and a serious Hip/Hop dance list that rocked the house!

As I introduced the wedding party and newlyweds to their guests for dinner, we concluded the intros with the 'Dougie,' and the crowd roared with approval. I love a creative intro!

We had a series of great speeches, concluding with Brandon, who was super nervous, delivering an amazing speech and toast, it made me proud!

We truly had a great night...

Monte Verde Inn Wedding - Sacramento Wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

With wedding season now in full bloom, I finally got to play at the phenomenal Monte Verde Inn. I sure missed it!

Nick and Gina married indoors amongst 35 of their closest friends and family. Rev. Jeri Murphy officiated, and the festivities began. Our photog, Eye Connoisseur had eyes everywhere!

Great food, great family and friends, dancing, and even a hunorous quiz for both Moms which made us all chuckle provided a spark!

Congratulations Nick and Gina!

Lake Natoma Inn Bat Mitzvah - Sacramento Bar Mitzvah DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

We had one heck of a good time this past Saturday at Lake Natoma Inn in Folsom, as we celebrated Hannah's Bat Mitzvah! Over 100 friends and family gathered to witness her become an adult and then party like rock stars!

We had lunch (which lasts about 5 minutes with the younger set!), and I invited everyone present to text message me their song requests for the day! My phone BLEW up!!! We had the photobooth rockin' all day, and I had a menu of games and dancing ready to go.

We limbo'd, we Cha Cha Slided, we wrapped each other in toilet paper, we busted balloons tied to ankles, we danced, we played more games!!

It was an action packed day to say the least, and we left the poor Inn with quite a mess to clean up, sorry!!!

Grand Ballroom Sacramento Wedding - Sacramento Wedding DJ


Sacramento Wedding DJ

I was really looking forward to playing for Mike and Andrea's wedding this past weekend. We met and booked about a year ago, and they had 'Grand' plans for wedding day. Their ceremony was held in the ballroom under a Chupah, and they had 7 readers pledging their blessings upon the lucky couple!

We had the photobooth rocking all night long, and took the most photos we've ever taken at a wedding!! You should have seen some of the shots, especially late night ones! I uplit the entry and ballroom in amber and as the house lights dimmed, the room just warmed right up.

Rebecca, Barry and Lindsay from Ford Family Photography were the biggest help ever! They were shuttling people upstairs for post ceremony photos, and without them, I couldn't have effectively moved everyone so quickly.

I want to get right to dancing, so looking at the clock, the first dance began with about 3 hours until the scheduled end time. Let me tell ya', they rocked the dancefloor until the very last second!!! It was really a fun group. Andrea Facebook'd me the next morning to thank me for a great time, and that was all I needed to hear.
