Kenzie & Rich, November 8, 2008

Kenzie & Rich live in Florida, and put together an amazing city reception at the Federal Reserve in Providence. Everything about this place is "top-notch", and Kenzie's choices for decor, layout and style were elegant, but fun!

Kenzie & Rich met in high school, so family and friends were excited to share in this day with them after 15 years together. The happiness in the room was palpable, two families and lots of friends coming together to celebrate. That makes for a crowded dance floor! And I must say that it was a beautiful crowd as well - check out some of the photos. Gorgeous brown bridesmaid dresses, handsome men in suits and guests all decked out!

The Bose speaker system sounded incredible in the nooks and crannies of the Reserve, in the balcony and even in the Vault (a small sitting area setup for the bride & groom)! The coordinator, Jean, was terrific. She was able to oversee the food, the wedding party, and everything else...she seemed to be everywhere! We also had the great pleasure of working with our friends, Gabrielle & Matt of Gabrielle Marks Photography, and our new friend, David Bettencourt on video.

Here are their songs:
1. Bridal Party Entrance: Bittersweet Symphony By The Verve
2. Bride & Groom Entrance: Clocks By Coldplay
3. Bride & Groom First Dance: Kiss From A Rose By Seal
4.First Song After First Dance: This Town By Frank Sinatra

Abby & Jesse - November 1, 2008

We met Abby and her Mom at The Grand Bridal Show in January. They were planning a wedding for November. It seemed so far away!

Abby & Jesse's reception was held at the Foster Country Club. If you are looking for a reasonable spot, with great food in a picturesque setting, this might be your spot! The staff is extremely accommodating and nice! While they were very easy-going, the room is beautiful for a party of this size - 125 or so.

We try to gather as much information as possible at our meetings about what types of music our couples and their guests will enjoy. This crowd was terrific, and the music was oldies, Rock & Roll, 80's, The Beatles, and later we got into some Top 40 and even some Techno. They danced to absolutely everything!

Here are some pictures:

The bridal party was fun!

Lots of dancing!

The happy couple...

Very cool cake.

Pretty tables!
