They were married at the on-site chapel and the reception then moved down into the banquet room where we were primed and ready to start the introductions.
The bridal party and newlyweds were amped and introduced to "Celebration" by Kool & The Gang and went into their first dance “At Last” by Raul Malo a very unique remake of the original by Etta James. It is a great song! The crowd was eating it up and so were we. After the first dance the family and guests gathered for pictures with the newlyweds and a beautiful blessing was given by a friend of the newlyweds. The excellent buffet opened and everyone enjoyed.
On to the cake cutting and toast. Now this was one of the most unique toast we had every heard because the bestman could not attend the wedding due to his role as chief aid in the relief efforts of Hurricane Irene in Virginia (our condolences go out to all of the victims of the incident). At Signature Eventx our aim is to please so we connected our cell phone to the speakers and he dedicated his heartfelt toast to the newlyweds, through the sound system so all the guests could hear. Right before we opened the dance floor we had the boquet & garter toss!
Once the dance floor opened, Cecilia left that part up to us. She said play great dance music and plenty of 80s. So, that is exactly what we did. We mixed KC & The Sunshine Band, The BeeGees, Michael Jackson and more.
The crowd response was amazing for a Sunday afternoon wedding and all of the guests had a great time.
