Shadowridge Country Club Wedding 4/11/10

It has been a while since I last provided San Diego wedding DJ services at Shadowridge Country Club. I took a look and my last wedding there was over eight years ago back in 2002. Tonight’s couple hired me as their San Diego wedding DJ for the ceremony and reception from a referral. The referral was actually from my bride who had her wedding yesterday. Shadowridge Country Club provides a shuttle that guests board at the Country Club that takes them to and from the ceremony site. The ceremony was held out in the middle of the golf course tucked away in a nice secluded area. Once guests were transported back the cocktail hour and dinner reception were held inside the ballroom with a great view of the golf course. The brides loves pink so naturally her color choice for the wedding was… pink. The tall centerpieces had touches of varying shades of pink that coordinated with the napkins and linens. One nice moment happened during the father and daughter dance. Half way through the song I invited the bride’s grandfather out to join her for the second half of the song. He really enjoyed being a part of her special day. We were ending at 9pm since it was a Sunday so we only had about an hour of dance music to work with. Once we kicked into dancing guests were ready to get things going. Dancing continued until the couples last dance. Guests wanted a few more songs but we had to wrap things up since the Country Club needed to begin cleaning the ballroom for an event the next day. Excellent Sunday evening wedding.

Another amazing wedding down at the Omni! Tonight’s wedding was for one of the sales managers that works at the Omni so there were a lot of important people in attendance including the VP of the Omni along with many of the Omni’s upper management. This wedding had a lot of extra special touches. First off the centerpieces looked amazing in the room. They were extremely vibrant which really created a dramatic effect set against the black chair covers. Lounge furniture surrounded the dance floor which creates a cool relaxed atmosphere. We projected the couple’s slide show up on a large screen after dinner. Just outside the ballroom there was another lounge area where guests could step away from the dance floor and relax while viewing another video slide show on a LCD flat screen. I provided the San Diego wedding DJ services and also helped illuminate the room with a few extra items. 16 uplights were used around the ballroom (set to a nice amber color), a custom monogram initial was projected down onto the dance floor, and the cake was spotlighted to really make it stand out when the lights were dimmed, as well as, making sure it was visible from across the room. We had a crowd of about 225 guests tonight and I estimate about 200 of them were out on the dance floor. We were scheduled to end at 11pm but everyone was having a great time so we extended until 12 midnight. Another great wedding reception!

Tonight we were over at the newly remodeled Bali Hai for a great wedding. The new remodel looks great and really updates the look and feel of the location. It makes the room seem twice as large as it used to. The ceremony was held off to the side of the restaurant facing the San Diego bay and the downtown skyline. A few interesting and fun elements to this wedding included: the groom walking into the ceremony to an instrumental version of the song: “The Final Countdown” which got a laugh out of quite a few people, the bride wore a very unique grey-ish blue wedding dress that really stood out from the “norm”, the groom does custom tile and stone work so the groom’s cake had blue waves made out of small square sugar tiles like a mosaic, root beer floats were served for dessert, the couple is really into tandem bicycles so they had their old-school tandem outside on display and I projected a custom image of a tandem bicycle down onto the dance floor, for some unknown reason a group of younger guests changed into disco style clothes during open dancing and surprised everyone on the dance floor with their stylish moves, the bride’s father is a technical genius so he put together a full on photo booth with props and backdrop. Each guest was able to take home printed photo booth style photos from the evening. The uplights around the room added some color to the walls and went well with the bride’s bouquet.

Extras Provided: 8 uplights, custom monogram projection, disco ball

Tonight I was able to DJ a private party celebrating a 44th birthday at Arterra Outdoor Lounge at the Marriott Del Mar. It was a smaller group but they fully enjoyed themselves, ate some great food, and danced to familiar tunes. I was able to play a large variety of music for them since he was a “young” 44!

Exquisite Weddings Magazine 2010 Release Party

Tonight I was honored to be invited to attend the Exquisite Weddings Magazine 2010 Release Party that was held at the San Diego downtown University Club Atop Symphony Towers.

I have done a few weddings at the University Club in the past and this location has some of the best views of downtown! There was a great mix of top vendors, as well as, brides/grooms.

I bumped into one of my past couples Lauren & Byram. Their wedding is featured in this issue so it was really exciting for them to view it on the pages of a magazine! I am glad that I was able to be a part of it and make sure they were well taken care of. If you pick up a copy of the recent magazine their wedding is featured on page 52 through page 55. Enjoy!

Admiral Baker Clubhouse Wedding 3/21/10

This evening’s wedding was held at the Admiral Baker Clubhouse and golf course. I started off with providing the ceremony music and microphones outside on the patio. After the ceremony guests moved to the other end of the patio for the cocktail hour with a great view of the golf course. Once inside the ballroom I projected a slide show that they created. It was a nice way to start off the reception. I then announced our newly married couple into the room. They went to their sweetheart table and I invited their best man and maid of honor up to start off the toasts. After the meal dancing began with their first dance to: “Bless The Broken Road” – Rascal Flatts. We cut the cake after about 45 minutes of solid dancing. They had one of the most unique cake knife and server sets I have seen yet. It was an organic shaped set by Nambé and can be seen in the picture below. Tonight was another amazing night on the dance floor. Sometimes a Sunday night wedding will not have the same type of party atmosphere as a Saturday night wedding. This definitely was not the case with this group. They kept it going until 10pm ending time. They had a blast singing along with the last dance song our couple picked out: “Bohemian Rhapsody” – Queen. It was one of the best “last dances” I’ve seen at a wedding.

I was back at the Omni tonight for an amazing San Diego wedding! They really went all out for this one. The entire ballroom space was used with around 225 guests. I provided my usual San Diego wedding DJ and MC services, as well as, lots of extra enhancements to finish the room off. I used 12 uplights throughout to add some color to the tan walls. I spotlighted the cake (you can see before and after pictures below and a few at a distance to let you see how the cake really stands out from across the room) and projected a custom monogram gobo image down onto the dance floor to add a personal touch. The tables looked amazing with branch centerpieces that were highlighted with orchids, hanging candles, and draped with crystals. The couple made their entrance into the ballroom and then went into their first dance to “You Got Me” by Colbie Caillat. After dinner I helped provide the projection equipment for their slide show. Once we kicked things off dancing went extremely well! They had a blast from start to finish. We ended up going about 15 minutes past the ending time since they kept wanting more… Guests then headed downstairs and lit sparklers outside for the bride & groom’s exit.
