Alexis & Chad

October 24, 2009

October weddings are beautiful. They are even more beautiful at the Carl House. Alexis and Chad were married in the back of the house and held their reception in the ballroom area. My pictures do not do the room justice. This was a fun group - the bride's family is Greek - so of course we had a great deal of dancing and excitement! Enjoy the pictures.

Cedar Shoals Homecoming Dance - October 17, 2009

What an awesome dance! Of course, like so many other events this year, it was raining during load-in, there was a funky ramp that kept weaving, which my cart couldn't negotiate. But, once we were set up, gym lights off, and students started walking in, none of that other stuff mattered. 3 solid hours of dancing and fun! These kids were super savvy on all the latest hits, and I was able to deliver. My only regret is my photography abilities, they just don't do this dance justice. Enjoy the pictures~!

Katie & Casey

October 15, 2009

Katie & Casey Stokes's wedding and reception took place on a Thursday afternoon. Both of them work the weekend shift at a Hospital, so a typical Saturday wedding would make it impossible for all of their co-workers to attend. This couple is awesome - they are fun loving and laid back. When they found out that their outdoor ceremony would have to be moved inside for rain (a common theme this year), they made light of it by selecting "Singin' in the Rain" as their introduction song. To take it to the next level, the bridal party, and the newlyweds each donned an umbrella as they walked in. Classic! Enjoy the Pictures.

Leah & Dominic

Leah & Dominic Heil were married on October 10, 2009. Their beautiful reception was held at the Ritz-Carlton Lodge, Lake Oconee. Originally, we were supposed to be outside on the Landing, overlooking the lake. Due to excessive rain in the forecast, we partied in the Salon.

I was super impressed with the catering staff at the Ritz. Jill (the coordinator) and everyone worked so seamlessly to create a fantastic experience for the newlyweds.

As guests arrived, I played the new piano jazz trio playlist I put together - with a great response. The lack of lyrics helped it to blend into the background even better, while creating a rich ambience. Several guests commented on how much they enjoyed it.

After toasts and cake, the party was on! This couple knows how to get down. The dancefloor was full the entire night! Great reception Dominic and Leah - Enjoy the pictures.

Madison County High School Homecoming

September 26, 2009

I will remember this dance for years to come. To start things off, it was a torrential downpour when I arrived to setup. I pulled the trailer as close as I could to the door, but there was still a significant uncovered distance to be travelled. I had to wrap each speaker in a plastic tarp and wheel them in individually to ensure they didn't get wet, even though I got soaked. Once all was setup, we started the dance early, since students were waiting outside in the rain. The dance itself was great, playing all sorts of different music. Thank goodness for plastic tarps! Enjoy the pictures.

Barrett's Bar Mitzvah

September 5, 2009

Barrett's Bar Mitzvah was held at the State Botanical Gardens of Georgia, in the conservatory.

This is an amazingly beautiful venue, with enormous glass-paned walls/ceilings and tropical plants surrounding the reception area.

After a brief cocktail time, Barrett and friends started the evening with games & line-dances. We played Coke & Pepsi, Game Show Musical Chairs, Limbo and Hula Hoop Pass. We danced the Cha-Cha Slide, Cupid Shuffle, and the Macarena Challenge. Following games, all guests were treated to delicious Dondero's Kitchen catering.

After dinner, the dance floor was open for all. Guests danced to a variety of music, mainly classic rock, oldies and disco. The hora was a huge success and guests had a great time dancing.

Congrats to Barrett!

Jessica & Tim

Jessica & Tim's reception was held at Marswood Hall, August 29, 2009. Tim was the best man in Tegan & Josh's wedding back in June. Their reception was also at Marswood. Despite all of the similarities between the two, Tim & Jessica put their unique style on everything possible. From the assorted flowers in mason jars, to mint-sweet tea, to a Sanford Stadium grooms cake :), there was a great deal of personality at this reception. I was even able to color match the uplighting to the flowers hanging from the chandeliers. The guests had a great time, and so did I. Best of luck!

Bliss & Justin

Bliss & Justin Lee

August 22, 2009

Bliss & Justin held their reception at Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church, Hartwell, GA.

They were married in the church, and used the Founder's Hall & Pavilion for the after-party.

We were lucky with a good spot of rain the day before to have slightly cooled temperatures for mid-August in Georgia. In the third picture below, you will see a unique portrait of the bride & groom. It is a collage of hundreds of pictures, arranged to create one large picture. I accentuated the picture and architecture of the church with a bit of well-placed uplighting. It is amazing the effect those LED lights can have. Enjoy the pictures!
