Flower Farm Inn Wedding - Wedding DJ Loomis, CA

Sacramento Wedding DJ

Haley and Tim rocked their wedding this past weekend at Flower Farm Inn in Loomis, CA.

They were just great, they were so easy to work with!

Haley surprised Tim with an Irish trio for their ceremony, and his face showed surprise and glory! They had a unique and fun ceremony, and cocktail hour followed.

There were so many DIY components, I wouldn't even know where to begin to explain and describe them all, but they were tastefully and artfully everywhere! Loved it!!

Randy Peters Catering served guests a fabulous Family-Style dinner, and toasts followed in a different area, where the cake was cut as well.

We then invited everyone into the barn, where Tim had created a slideshow for their guests to watch, laugh at, cry at, scream at, and just enjoy!

Dancing followed, and the energy from their wedding party was frenetic, I tell ya'. They just lit up the dancefloor, and guests couldn't help but want to join them and party all night long.

It was a rockin' great time.

Wedding Lights Sacramento - Sacramento Wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

This past Sunday marked one of our marquis weddings of the year!

Rachel and James married at the historic Grand Island Mansion. Hidden along the Delta, it's  a stunning venue with tons of decor possibilities.

The amount of detail and planning for their wedding was intense! They had a touching ceremony in front of the Mansion, cocktail hour was upstairs, in the mansion, and dinner and dancing in the tent and courtyard. I will do my best to describe. As seen above, the courtyard was lit by yours truly and team. We lit each pillar, lit the back of the mansion and illuminated their names on the fabric hanging from the second story. In the tent, their tablescapes were gorgeous, high and silver! Stunning royal linens, a white dancefloor, white lounge furniture, cocktail tables and much more brought this space to life. We lit the canopy and walls in blue, shot amber swirls onto the dancefloor and furniture, and made the cocktail tables glow!

We had our photobooth rockin' all evening long, and had the pleasure of working alongside Nicolette Clark Photography.

The dancefloor absolutely rocked until the very last song, and whoever was left simply didn't want the night to end, as they begged for more!!

Awesome night to say the least....

Round Hill Country Club Wedding - Alamo Wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

I was absolutely in awe of the Round Hill Country Club in Alamo, CA, just outside of Danville. It was my first time there, and their staff treated us like royalty, and the clubhouse was just rich and gorgeous.

Erika  and Daniel married outside (see photo above), and their cocktail hour and reception were indoors in the breezeay and ballroom, which were beautiful.

Our photobooth was cranking out the fun from the outset, and dinner was served in the ballroom to 130 guests, who enjoyed pasta primavera or beef tenderloin.

There were many touching and funny toasts, all very worthwhile, and the cake cutting transitioned us right into dancing.

Erika and Daniel danced to Lionel Richie's 'Truly.' Then, to the surprise of everyone, they flirted as they danced to their favorite song from Pulp Fiction! Their guests loved every move!!

The oversized dancefloor was jammed for the rest of the night, and their requested playlist was exactly what worked for their guests. We rocked for 3 solid hours.

Congrats Erika and Daniel!!

Monte Verde Inn Weddings / Auburn, CA wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

This past weekend featured two Monte Verde Inn weddings, both of which were full of positive energy, outgoing guests and full dancefloors!

Saturday, Jeff and Katie had guests in from all parts of the country, and had an intimate ceremony....Jeff was struggling to hold back the tears. Cocktail hour had a mix of contemporary vocal songs featured. I love surprises, and we had two. Katie sang Jeff their first dance, and Katie and her Dad sang their dance to one another!! My dancefloor filled for two solid hours as guests hammed it up until shuttle service carted everyone off to the afterparty!

Sunday, Peter and Megan were married under the cedar trees, and uniquely had their families 'warm' up their wedding rings as a sign of love for them. Our Grand Introductions were comprehensive and fun, and the dancefloor was as full as I have seen for a Sunday wedding, love that! The most unique surprise request was 'Spice Girls, Wannabe!'

Old Sugar Mill Wedding - Sacramento Wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

Jason and Janelle married Saturday at Old Sugar Mill in Clarksburg, and it was a kick!

Their ceremony and cocktail hour took place behind OSM in their spacious grounds, and we had lots in store inside! Once guests came in the Gallery for dinner, they were greeted by me for the Grand Introductions of the wedding party and newlyweds. That was followed by an impressive Crew of Chinese dancers, who greeted the newlyweds with messages of good luck, prosperity and more.

Dinner was served by Asante Catering, our photobooth was rockin' throughout, and toasts were a riot, with a recurring theme regarding 'Fertility!' we then gathered around the dancefloor to watch a LoveStory video about Jason And Janelle, which was super creative and funny.

Dancing was next, and my floor was literally jammed until the last dance of the night! The energy was contagious, love that! There was a late night pizza truck serving slices in the parking lot, yummm, and it was simply a fabulous evening packed with memories.

Murietta's Well Wedding - Livermore Wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding DJ

Last Friday was a great one, at a great venue! Leslie and Stephen married at Wente's Murietta's Well in Livermore. I had never been there before, and was taken aback by its rustic beauty.

Their ceremony was outdoors, and performed by a family friend who did a great job. Cocktail hour was on the patio, and an elegant dinner inside the dark, rustic winery. Dancing took place outdoors, along with our photobooth and a cigar bar! We had quite the danceparty under the stars, and I can't wait for my next Livermore affair!

Old Sugar Mill Wedding - Sacramento Wedding DJ

Sacramento Wedding Dj

What a phenomenal celebration!

This past Sunday, Megan and Chris were married at Old Sugar Mill, one of my favorite veunes. It was quite a party, let me tell ya!

What was really great, is what I invite my clients to do, which is to add personal ingredients into your entertainment. Megan and Chris did just that...

Their ceremony was behind OSM, which is a perfect location for couple to marry.

Cocktail hour for their 200+ guests was in the Gallery, as guests enjoyed wine, beer and food, which led up to all the fun. We invited everyone in to take their dinner seats, and I prepared for the Grand Introductions.

To set the scene, Chris is a basketball coach, and he had the cool idea that he wanted his Groomsmen to be introduced like the starting 5 of a basketball team. The Bridesmaids were going to introduced more simply to Katy Perry's California Girls. The last bit of hurrah was once the guys made it in, they would huddle up like a team, bounce back and forth, then literally tear off their pants!!! (they were tear-aways). Fortunately for me, I got to be the 'voice' of this act, and it came off soooooo well, I wish I could do it all over again! The crowd went wild.

Megan and Chris danced to their first dance right away, Boyz II Men's, I'll Make Love To You. I asked their guests to singalong, and they were serenaded, center stage!

Dinner followed, toasts were really well done, and for my favorite part of the evening, the final toast was a surprise to Megan and Chris. Two of their wedding party members rose, spoke briefly, and as Lauren played the Ukulele, they both sang Ingrid M's, "The Way I Am." It was a moment that spoke volumes, I can't begin to explain how cool and meaningful that felt.

Then, because Megan and Chris met at a Wonderbread 5 concert, everyone was invited into the barrel room for a Concert, from none other than Wonderbread 5. These guests danced solid until I departed, and I must admit, I was envious that I wasn't playing tunes to make everyone dance to, because the energy was what I live for.

Best always to M&C.
