We had the pleasure of providing entertainment and creating a film for Neda and Kyle a few weeks ago. This was definitely a unique wedding. The couple is from the west coast residing in Seattle Washington. Kyle’s family is from Berks County. The event took place at a relatives barn surrounded by green fields overlooking a gully with a meandering stream that flowed into a larger pond. The Ceremony took place in a meadow by the water. Ashley our pianist provided the musical ambience as the guests arrived. (information on our live music options) When it came time for the brides entrance Ashley played Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah. Neda then walked down a vista through an aisle surrounded by friends and family to meet her emotional fiance by the pond. A friend acted as officiant.
After the ceremony Neda and Kyle wanted to have a little fun. After the first kiss we had a PA system setup and ready to go near the ceremony to play the Black Eyed Peas Dirty Bit! Kyle danced for his wife to the surprise of the guests who quickly joined in the celebration! Up to (1) additional PA system is included with every flat rate DJ package!
After the Ceremony the guests walked up the hill to the barn. The barn itself and the decor in the barn were amazing. The barn was completely refurbished and you could just tell walking into it that alot of thought and hours were put into the structure. From the custom windows to the woodwork to the creativity of the decorations and the 50 or so lanterns carefully strung up in the rafters the venue was amazing to say the least. For the first dance, the couple were framed by the barn doors beautifully as if on a stage as their guests watched from the comfort of the adjacent tent. Josh and Amber’s photo perfectly captured this moment. Note: We offer lantern rental with wireless battery operated LED lighting! Ask about this for your tented events
And then it was party time….. And wow could this group party! 4+ straight hours of non-stop dancing deep into the night. From the entertainment dept. Nick mixed the music while Carrie took the lead DJ role and Ron coordinated the day. The group prepared a great list of “must play” music that Nick mixed with some great old school hip hop and current top 40. Later in the night, the groom and friends were spotted doing keg stands outside the barn! The music and the fun didn’t slow one bit throughout the night. The Bride did not stop dancing the entire night! Around 10pm we lit up the exterior of the barn with uplighting.
This was an amazing night to kick off summer wedding season for us, an ultra fun creative group that was truly a pleasure to work with. Planning the event with clients on the other side of the country was a unique challenge, but it couldn’t have gone any smoother thanks in part to Neda’s vision and creativity. This wedding definitely showed what you can do by putting your own personality all over your event to create a memorable event for you, your friends and family!
Stay tuned for the Neda & Kyle’s ceremony Film! Trai will be posting as soon as it is finished sometime next week!
