Olivia & Joe became Mr. & Mrs. Stevens last night at the Grand Historic Venue in Baltimore. I worked along side Photographers Bill & Robin Rettberg and watched a magical night unfold. The reception started off with the newlyweds celebrating The Baltimore Ravens and entering to Nelly's "Hot In Here" with the groom doing his best Ray Lewis "Squirrel Dance"! Olivia & Joe danced their first dance as husband and wife to "My My Love" by Joshua Radin and the party music through the night ranged from Motown hits to 2 Pac! There was a limbo contest and a dance off at one point...just and all around great party. One Republic's "Good Life" was the last song of the night and a great way to end a super fun celebration. Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Stevens!

Kept it in the family last night. I was the DJ/MC for Gina & Jeff Rucci's reception at The Mansion at Valley Country Club. 2 years ago I had the opportunity to DJ Gina's sister's wedding so lots of fun, familiar faces at last night's celebration. I worked along side the Valley Mansion's fabulous staff and Photographer Kyle Bergner as we gave it are all to make Gina & Jeff's big day perfect. Mr. & Mrs. Rucci along with their bridal party made their grand entrance to "Summer" by Calvin Harris and then the newlyweds danced their first dance as a married couple to Adelle's version of "Make You Feel My Love".

Yesterday was a picture perfect day at Swan Harbor Farm in Aberdeen for Sharon and Mike's wedding and reception. I had the chance to work with Dean and Brown Catering and Jax Photography again and this team made sure the newlyweds had a stress free, super fun wedding day. Following the ceremony and cocktails, the new Mr. and Mrs. Federman opened the reception dancing to "At Last" by Etta James. This crowd of 120 partied like it was a Saturday night grooving to a mix of songs from many different genres. The bride and groom were joined by all couples on the dance floor as we ended the night with Train's "Marry Me". After the reception Sharon and Mike totally surprised me with a gift of 4 Jerry Garcia ties! Such a thoughtful gift and awesome couple!

Andrea & John became Mr. & Mrs. Tully last night at Swan Harbor Farm in Aberdeen. Unfortunately, the newlyweds had to say their "I do's" under the tent as the rain moved through.  As I started their recessional song,  The Beatles "Good Day Sunshine",  the skies opened up and Andrea & John were able to make their way back down the aisle in the sunshine. Dean and Brown Catering served up hors d'oeuvres and cocktails, followed by a surf and turf meal, while Event Planner Aubrey Canale of Simply Created Events kept the night moving right along. Mr. & Mrs. Tully danced their first dance as a married couple to Ray Lamontagne's "You Are The Best Thing".

Friday night was a hot one at Swan Harbor Farm in Aberdeen for Jenna & Craig's big night. Luckily, the breeze off the bay kept the guests cool for the ceremony and reception while Dean and Brown Catering wined and dined them. Mr. & Mrs. Connors danced their first dance as a married couple to "I Won't Give Up" by Jason Mraz. For a warm September at Swan Harbor I worried that people wouldn't be prone to dance however, these guests proved me wrong. They danced ALL night to a mix of party music from many different genres. A great party wrapped up with Jenna & Craig front and center on the dance floor with their entire bridal party along with 99% of the guests surrounding them to sing and dance to Sugarland's "Stuck Like Glue".

I had the privilege of being the DJ/MC for Mr. & Mrs. League's wedding and reception at The American Visionary Art Museum in downtown Baltimore on Friday night. Doug & Lisa were married by officiant Heather Saul inside the AVAM and then we moved over to the venue's sculpture barn and garden for cocktails, hors d'oeuvres and dinner provided by Rouge Catering.
