Eric & Becky: October 10, 2008
Posted on November 3rd, 2008 in Event Recaps |
The second weekend in October was my busiest, with three weddings taking place. First up was Eric & Becky’s reception at Independence Harbor in Assonet. What a great party! Eric & Becky found me through Dana Pierce, who was outstanding to work with, as always.
Eric & Becky did such a great job with making their day a special one. The reception started with the introductions of their wedding party - the announcements were done by some of their younger family members, and they were perfect! When the bride and groom were introduced, they walked in to overwhelming applause and were smiling right up until the very last dance of the night. Their music selections were very cool - it’s not often that the must-play list that I receive includes “Baby Got Back”, Bust A Move” AND “The Humpty Dance” (and those were just the must-plays!). All of the guests enjoyed the music, including the elderly couple that came out to dance to “Money Ain’t A Thang”. Note to other DJs: Never underestimate your audience!
Congratuations, Eric & Becky!

The dining room. I brought in a couple of red uplights to give the dance floor area some color.
Another packed dance floor = another successful event!
