Mr. & Mrs. Jay & Rose Forino

Posted on by

Jay and Rose were a pleasure to work with from the very beginning. From music choices to event schedule, Rose had a specific vision in mind for her wedding day. Their reception was held at the RiverRoom in beautiful historic downtown Wilmington and what a beautiful choice df decode Rose made. Black linens, light colored flowers, subtle lighting all worked together to make the room really sparkle! After introductions, food was served by Bon Apetit and what fantastic food it was! Post dinner, Jay’s best man and Rose’s maid of honor both gave heartfelt toasts and the couple had their first dance together to “I Won’t Give Up” by Jason Mraz followed by parental dances. Once the party began, the bride and groom along with their family and friends hit the dance floor and danced the night away! We later returned to the last of the formalities in cutting the cake and guests were treated to a Viannese hour. For those of you that aren’t aware of what that is, it is a SECOND buffet of only desserts. Not just any desserts, but spectacular desserts like a flourless chocolate tart with a raspberry ganache. Decadent cheesecakes, wonderful fresh fruit. It was amazing! We would like to extend our greatest gratitude to Rosé and Jay for including us here at DJ Professionals and Video in their special day and we wish them the best in their new life together.

Mr and Mrs. Cunnane

Posted on by

Simplicity was the key with this couple. An intimate gathering of close friends and family in an elegant setting with a good dance party to follow. Between the talents of Brandy Donnelly and her staff at The Clubs at St. James Plantation Founders Club and the entertainment provided by DJ Professionals and Video, Eric von Bargen Photography was able to capture images that portrayed exactly that! After the wedding ceremony that took place at the St. James Chapel, the couple arrived at the St. James Plantation Founders Club and decided to forgo introductions so that they could begin to socialize with their friends and family. With the blessing complete and a few sincere words of thanks and encouragement from the father of the bride, the couple and their guests we served an amazing meal prepared by the culinary artists of St. James. Following dinner, the newlyweds cut the cake, also prepared on site, and danced their first dance to “I Won’t Give Up” by Jason Mraz. Open dancing proved to be the time for all of their guests to shine! From beginning to end, the new Mr and Mrs. Cunnane enjoyed every facet of their evening, we are thankful and proud to have been a part of such a lovely occasion.

Chris and Brenda Kozik

Posted on by

Newlyweds Chris and Brenda Kozik are possibly the nicest people you could have the pleasure of DJ’ing for. The reception was at Bluewater Waterfront Grill in Wrightsville Beach and the night began with the Bride and Groom’s first dance, set to Walter Egan’s Magnet and Steel. The guests then enjoyed a terrific meal provided by Bluewater’s kitchen and enjoyed the table arrangements provided by Beautiful Flowers by June. After dinner the newlyweds cut a delicious cake prepared by Apple Annie’s Bake Shop. The guests came from as far away as New Jersey and as close as North Carolina, which made for a great mix of music taste that kept people on the dance floor. It was such a fun night with great people; On behalf of everyone here at DJ Professionals & Video I wish the best to Chris and Brenda for many years to come.

Mr. & Mrs. Byron Batson

Having been the DJ for over 425 different weddings, it is such a pleasure to see a new spin on the “Classic Wedding”. Knowing I would be at the ever beautiful River Landing in Wallace, NC was the beginning of a great night, but later finding out that this would be a baseball themed wedding turned out to be quite a treat! The bride and groom truly thought of everything! From standing on home plate to exchange their vows and exiting their ceremony under crossed baseball bats, to the baseball themed cake and baseball jersey that doubled as their guest book! There were several small touches through the night that were in keeping with the theme. For example, the bride and groom chose to have the classic “Who’s On First” by Abbott and Costello played while guests were making their way through the buffet. Anyone who has ever been to see a baseball game knows that at some point during the course of the night, Abbott and Costello will make an appearance. The groom provided the centerpieces which each housed a baseball as a reminder of the theme the bride and groom selected. The groom also designed and arranged all of the bouquets for the bridesmaids as well as the decor behind the bride and groom’s table. In keeping with the baseball motif the bride and groom provided small bottled coca-cola and peanuts as well as cotton candy and Cracker Jacks as gifts to their guests. The entire bridal party was introduced as “The Starting Line-up” and each couple had a batting position. Once introduced the couple danced to “The Earth, The Sun, The Rain” by Color Me Badd. Family and guests all had a stellar evening enjoying fine food, wonderful entertainment and great fellowship. We at DJ Professionals and Video would like to extend a very warm “Thank You” to the new Mr. & Mrs. Batson for allowing us to be a part of their special day.

Mr. & Mrs. Luis Baltierrez

The RiverRoom is always a beautiful place to have an event. From the incredible view to the professional staff, you just can’t go wrong. RiverRoom event planner, Melissa Mendoza is a pleasure to work with and extremely detail oriented. Her ability to make things happen in a smooth and timely manner is unparalleled. With flowers provided by Moxie Floral Design Studio and DJ Professionals and Video providing the entertainment, the new Mr. & Mrs. Luis & Linnsey Baltierrez had a true “A-Team”! A family friend provided food for the event and it was fantastic! The couple held their ceremony on the deck outside The RiverRoom and moved inside for their reception. Overlooking the beautiful Cape Fear River, the happy couple and their guests enjoyed a relaxing night of food, fellowship and of course great music. We wish the new Mr. & Mrs. Baltierrez all the best and extend them many thanks for allowing us to be a part of their special day.

Zach and Diana Fearon

Posted on by

What a great night at The River Room celebrating the marriage of Zach and Diana Fearon!  The couple exchanged vows at the USS North Carolina Battleship and then headed across the river for the reception where DJ Professionals & Video had the pleasure of keeping the party going all night long…or at least until 10:00.  The night began with the introductions of the bridal party to “I Gotta Feeling” by the Black Eyed Peas followed by the bride and groom to “Forever” by Chris Brown.

A delicious dinner was served by Thyme Savor Catering and was paired with wine from Wilmington Wine. It was quite a spread! Following dinner the Bride and Groom shared the first dance to “When You Got A Good Thing” by Lady Antebellum.  Their dance was all it took to get everyone else on the dance floor and that is exactly where they stayed.

On behalf of everyone here at DJ Professionals & Video we want to congratulate Mr. and Mrs. Fearon and thank them for letting us take part in their celebration.

DJ Professionals & Video had the honor of being a part of Matt and Kim Hanline’s dream wedding at Bald Head Island.  The rain held off for the newlyweds just long enough to have a gorgeous beach ceremony before they headed to the Harbour Pavilion for the reception.

 

Brick Street Cinema videographers Matt Evans and Anne Liles were on site to capture all the memories of the day.

Brunswick Towne Florist provided beautiful arrangements for the ceremony and reception and Crazy Cake Chicks created the cake, which was just as delicious as it looked!  A day that was so much fun was made even better for this DJ as the guests spent the entire night on the dance floor.

It was an absolute pleasure to work such a wonderful event and on behalf of everyone here at DJ Professionals & Video and Brick Street Cinema I want to thank Matt and Kim for choosing us to be a part of your amazing day.

Matt and Katie Saas

Posted on by

It was a great pleasure for us here at DJ Professionals & Video to be asked to take part in the nuptial celebration of Katie Nolan and Matt Saas. They had a touching ceremony at Kenan Chapel in Landfall that included a candle lighting ceremony incorporating the Mom’s of the happy couple lighting individual candles followed by the newlyweds joining the flames.

Matt was beaming as he stared into the eyes of his new bride and it was clear, as he had reference in his vows, that they truly were “best friends”.

Matt and Katie had “warned” me before hand that both sides of the family were there to celebrate and have a good time and that they did! Fortunately RGCVideo and Charo Photo were on hand at Lumina Hall Event Center to capture all of the action. Charo and I have worked together before and she was amazing as always.

Middle of the Island Catering was providing food which always brings a smile to my face. This was my third wedding in a row with them and that may explain the few extra pounds I have been carrying around recently. Their food is always excellent and the staff is top notch.

With dinner out of the way the party cranked up a few notches. Both sides of the family loved to dance however it was 11 year old usher and cousin Caleb Wiler who took over the dance floor. Caleb was a hit and one of the best young dancers I have seen in a while.

It was a wonderful day with two beautiful families and we here at DJ Professionals & Video cannot thank Matt, Katie and of course Aunt Theresa enough for allowing us to be a part of it. We wish the happy couple a lifetime of love and joy!

Jonathan and Brittany Griffiin

What a beautiful day on Bald Head Island for the wedding of Jonathan Griffin and Brittany Cole. The weather was truly perfect. At the end of Bald Head Island is a place called “The Shoals Club”. If you have never had the opportunity to take in the breathtaking scenery at The Shoals Club, it should be on your list of things to do in the near future! From the back of the club, you have a 180 degree view of the Atlantic Ocean and on a day like this one, it is simply breathtaking.

Brittany and Jonathan had their ceremony at the chapel on the island, another of its many gorgeous settings. With the ceremony completed, they proceeded to have picures and video taken on the beach. Pictures were captured by the ever talented Anne McGowan and videography services were provided by our own Brick Street Cinemas. The couple then gathered their bridal party and after a quick line up proceeded to have each couple dance in to their own music! These guys definitely came to have a good time! With dances, dinner and some heart wrencing toasts out of the way, we started their dance party. Not only did the couple stay on the dance floor all night, but their guests were right there with them! It was truly a pleasure to be chosen to provide DJ services for the new Mr. & Mrs. Jonathan and Brittany Griffiin. We here with DJ Professionals & Video and Brick Street Cinemas wish them a long and prosperous new marriage.

Brian and Sarah Blake

DJ Professionals & Video had the pleasure of providing DJ services for newlyweds Brian and Sarah Blake at The Balcony on Dock Street.  Jenn Rayle and the team at The Balcony on Dock Street did an amazing job setting up the room with black tablecloths and pink napkins for the couple’s 150 plus guests.  The girls at Moxie Floral Design Studio out did themselves yet again with amazing arrangements all around the room while Jacki and Angie of Baca Photography captured all of the great memories throughout the evening. With an A-Team like this it should come to no surprise that The Three Divas provided a cake so stunning to look at you almost didn’t want to cut into it…almost. Every couple is unique and this couple was no different. The newlyweds were introduced to their guests to Michael Jacksons “The Way You Make Me Feel” followed by their first dance set to Stevie Wonders “My Cherie Amor”. It was truly a great evening and on behalf of everyone here at DJ Professionals & Video I thank Brian and Sarah for allowing us to be a part of their special day and wish them a lifetime of laughter and love.
