Spanish/ Persian Wedding at the US Grant - Grace Ormond Feature

This was an amazing wedding, we provided uplighting in the Crystal Ballroom for the ceremony and then 24 color changing LED uplights for the reception in the Presidential Ballroom.  The uplights were set to gold as the guests entered and throughout dinner, just as the dancing and festivities began later we changed the color to violet for a better party atmosphere.  DJing this wedding very unique since Krista and Cameron traveled extensively and wanted to incorporate music from their experiences that would appeal to their guests who attended from around the world.  We played music from Persian, India, Latin, American and topped it off with a little touch of Carnivale.  I have to admit the highlight of the event design was probably the 20 ft tall x 30 ft wide portrait of the bride and groom behind the head table.

I DJ'd & Emcee'd the Festivities through dinner and dancing, I also provided (10) Ultra LED Uplights in their requested color "Candlelight" around the room and I'm particularly proud of the 5ft tall monogram projected from 76' away across the room.  We spent some time well before the wedding measuring and testing to make sure the monogram would turn out just right.

Here is the video again just in case you missed it.

Katherine + Joel from the Mountain Top!

  Katherine's family designed a pretty large piece of their home and surrounding property just west of Ramona for this wedding and it couldn't have turned out nicer.  The Ceremony was at the end of the point overlooking the entire valley and the reception was on the adjactent space was a perfect compliment to a great night. 

The Other Great vendors on this event:
Wedding Planner – Amy Vargas - First Comes Love
Photographer – True Photography
Film – SidebySide Cinema
Catering – John Little Catering

  This group danced right til the very end when the buses arrived to return to the hotel in town and the Father of the Bride gave me a few the nicest compliments that I can imagine after everything was finished.

This Wedding was a Rockin' Party!  Part of the family was Korean as you'll see from the Gangnam Style recreation on the Dancefloor in the video and the whole group was just in the mood to have fun.  We also provided 8 Uplights in Gold to give the room that warm glow and accent the florals.

We used 8 LED uplights in candlelight or pale gold color for this one.

The Photobooth was out on the terrace and had a steady stream of people ALL night.

The group was ready to dance so I'll let the Video do the talking for this one.
