And the Band Played On

October 15th, 2009 @ 12:41 pm by Miss French Fries

Today I’m meeting with a potential DJ for our wedding. This past winter, at a ubiquitous Bridal Expo in our area, Mr. FF and I strolled down aisle after aisle of potential wedding vendors. A lot of them were bakeries, which resulted in many slices of free cake. This was a good thing, and I happily ate piece after piece (Mr. FF, on the other…

Mrs. Sunbeam, San Francisco/Grove City, PA Age and Occupation: 26, Grad Student & Office Manager Fiance's Age and Occupation: 27, Motion Designer Engagement Date: May 10, 2008 Wedding Date: September 2009 Venue: Harbison Chapel & The Maple Lane Farm About Me: Mr. Sunbeam and I are high school sweethearts. We both come from a small town in PA but are growing to love the California lifestyle. He loves wine and I love cheese... the perfect combination! When I'm not drooling over wedding blogs, I'm attending grad school, out being a foodie, or attempting to "walk" our cat at the park. Two things guaranteed to excite me are wedding cakes and breaking out my suitcase to travel. Mr. Sunbeam and I are personalizing our hometown wedding to celebrate our high school sweetheart status and PA roots with a few CA touches. After ten years of dating we couldn't be more excited to call each other husband and wife!

Hey Mista’ DJ!

July 30th, 2009 @ 5:07 pm by Mrs. Sunbeam

Well, a few weekends ago we got our DJ!

Hello, Macbook Pro. For those of you who keep up on these things, you might know the new faster CHEAPER Macbook Pros came out a little while ago. To be exact, they came out two days after we bought ours. Boo. Luckily Apple lets you make an exchange if a new version of your suddenly old and decrepit laptop comes out within two weeks of your purchase.

Strike Up The Band

May 13th, 2009 @ 12:11 pm by Mrs. French Bulldog

Finding our band (or DJ) was Mr Frenchie’s responsibility, so right after we decided to have the wedding at the Bernardo Winery, he went to task. The first email Mr Frenchie sent me was for an awesome “crooner”, David Patrone.

Mr Frenchie and I love Frank Sinatra, Michael Buble and Jamie Cullem (to name a few). (We always joke about whether we could afford to hire…

I'm from Chicago, he's from NYC, and we both miss public transit and great pizza. We have an adorable muppet dog called Paco.

It can't stop us from planning the bold and whimsical wedding of our dreams, but we've had to get pretty creative to make it work, yo!

Heidi and Spencer, Music and Me

So, Heidi and Spencer got married this weekend. Normally I roll my eyes at any news about Speidi, but this was a special occasion for many people, even me! Why, you ask?

Well, take exhibit A: this photo of Perez Hilton mingling at the cocktail reception.

Oh, Perez. Wait, who’s that behind him? In the white suit?

Dance, Dance!

January 9th, 2009 @ 6:13 pm by Mrs. Quiche

Mr. Quiche and I are such “music” people, that I don’t trust leaving the song decisions up to a Jamaican DJ. We don’t want the same old song and dance (Electric Slide, Shout!, you get the point…).

The resort provides a Jamaican Mento band (I had no idea what one was, either!) as part of our general wedding package. I am glad that we’re going to…

I spent eight years in the Northeast working and completing my education. Having split time between two sides of the country has given me a true appreciation for both coasts. It has also provided an overabundance of cross country drives, flights and long distance relationship fun/misery!

My fiance and I are complete opposites, but somehow we have managed to fall completely and hopelessly in love.

Two of Our Wedding’s VIPs

December 30th, 2008 @ 1:31 pm by Mrs. Glitter

We are looking to hire both a wedding coordinator to oversee the entire day and a master of ceremonies (MC) to run the reception. The closer our wedding date gets, the more I feel the itch to solicit the aid of professionals. Quite honestly, if we were having a smaller wedding, I would feel more comfortable handling it myself or having friends and family help…

I'm a full believer in the "Life is Short," mantra - and therefore, eat lots of dark chocolate. I'm a Geographer by degree and nerd by choice.

Mr. Espresso and I are high school sweethearts and I am so blessed to be this amazing man's future wife.

We’re less than 50 days away from the wedding and we just booked our entertainment. Who’s been procrastinating? But in this instance, we had to wait in hopes of getting our top choice.

You see, back in June, I was researching entertainment and came across the musical awesomeness that is Mike and Brian. I emailed them immediately requesting a quote and their availability, but the price…

Phillips Winery About Me: Hi, I'm Miss Pomegranate and I'm a shopaholic. I have a weak spot for the chic cheap - especially anything I can re-create on the DIY. Shoes are my vice, music is my passion in life and technology is the medium by which I live and work.

We originally planned on having an iPod wedding - but anxiety got the best of me after lots and lots (and lots) of people told me that the DJ is the one thing that most brides wish they had spent more on. Well, that anxiety, teamed up with the fact that NOT ONE of my friends wanted to be the emcee, (come on people, normally…

An Ear For The Bump BA Bump

January 17th, 2008 @ 12:29 pm by Mrs. Cherry Blossom

When we started searching for a DJ, the choices were unlimited. We had tons of friends who got into the DJ’ing business from HS, and continued it into a growing business from the club scene to weddings and social events. Finding one that fit our budget and had the ear for some bad-ass beat that makes you want to rip the floor up and shake…

About Mrs. Hibiscus

So far, I’ve already blogged about our photobooth and our slideshow. Another special aspect of our wedding (and Mr. Hibiscus’ favorite) was our first dance.

Now, we worked really hard to come up with a routine after a couple of lessons from Arthur Murray. I think we did a good job considering we had no previous training. It wasn’t “Dancing with the stars” by any means,…

Dance All Night To This DJ…

May 30th, 2007 @ 4:56 pm by Mrs. Bell Pepper

There was much debate whether or not we should have a band, DJ, or an iPod playing our music for the reception. My fiance’s mom liked the idea of having a band. The look of having a band at your reception is very classy and the sound is so much better live. The cons for having a band is that it’s very expensive and you…
