Skyler & Richard's reception took place at the unforgettable
Augusta Pines Clubhouse.The beautifully decorated dance floor was set up outside of the banquet hall with matching lounge seats alongside an outdoor bar for the guests to mix and mingle. The weather was iffy at first and even right up until the guests arrived it was drizzling, but eventually it cleared up and they were able to have their beautiful outdoor evening reception.We were really hoping the rain would stop, thankfully it did! This is our second time frequenting Augusta Pines within the last couple months and there is something special about the couples who book here. I know you think we say this about everyone, but truly the couples here always have a lot of energy and charisma! Skyler and Richard were no exception their guest came ready to party, party, party and so were we.
The reception began inside the banquet room we lined up the very large bridal party and introduced them to “Marry You” by Bruno Mars, with Richard and Skyler making their entrance into the thunderous applause of the guests awaiting at the bottom of the stairs. Right after Skyler's grandfather gave the blessing the food stations opened up to the guests. The food looked great as always! After the bride and groom made their way around the room they cut the cakes and everyone proceeded outside to prepare for the newlyweds first dance. Their first dance was to VV Browne’s “Crazy Amazing” and then we mixed into "Jai Ho" by The Pussycat Dolls from the Slum Dog Millionaire movie while the bridal party joined the newlyweds on the dance floor! Great choices! We had some great toasts from the two best men and we found out twenty-five of Richard's friends had flown out to Houston from the United Kingdom and this was the first wedding Richard had ever attended. Wow! The parents dances were next and Skyler glided across the floor with her father to "My Girl" by The Temptations and Richard's mother was grinning from ear to ear while twisting, turning, and showing off her great moves to the uptempo "Higher Ground" by Stevie Wonder. We proceeded into the couples dance with "When A Man Loves A Woman" by Percy Sledge which was also a song dedicated to Skyler's parents. A big favorite of ours because you can never go wrong with the classics!
Right before the couples dance ended we mixed directly into the Cha Cha Slide to start the night off and from the looks of it some people never got off the floor from then on.We ran through 60′s, 70′s, 80′s, 90′s and current hits with a fury and the crowd was eating it up! What a ton of energy, hopefully we didn't wake the neighbors! We played a couple of very unique songs like "Blue Hawaii" by Elvis and "The Tennesse Waltz" which was dedicated to the grandparents.
The only time the guest paused to take a step off the dance floor was for the bouquet toss which was to “Single Ladies” by Beyonce and the Groom removed and tossed the garter to “Land of 1000 Dances” by Wilson Pickett. The highlight of the night was when we played "Champagne Showers" by LMFAO. The groomsmen showered the groom with champagne and crowd surfed him all aound the dance floor! (All in good spirit …lol)
