Ben & Katie’s Wedding – Dellwood Hills Country Club

November 29, 2013 by Aaron

Black Friday!  While most of America was up early shopping for deals, I was traveling down to Dellwood MN, a nice suburb on the north side of the Twin Cities to DJ Ben & Katie’s wedding.  The Dellwood Hills Country Club is a very nice venue, and I enjoyed working with the staff there to make the event a success.  We did the ceremony, and afterwards there was a receiving line/cocktail hour in an adjacent room while the staff reset the main room for “dinner”.  There wasn’t really dinner, rather an extended cocktail hour with hors d’oeuvres.  But after an hour or so we kicked off the dance floor and partied it up.

I had met with Ben & Katie in person the week before to go over the details for their big day, and this was a very fun couple.  They are blessed with great friends and family, and I was honored to play a role in making sure their day turned out the way they wanted it to, with lots of energy and excitement, and everyone having a blast.

[Video Log] Holiday Inn Willmar MN Wedding DJ

November 3, 2013 by Aaron

DJ Julian Williams and I once again hit the road, only this time we travelled 3.5 Hours to Willmar MN.  We provided ceremony sound & coordination at the church in Staples MN, then set up at the Holiday Inn Hotel in Willmar for the reception.  This was a BIG wedding, and we did it all… Uplighting, Love Story, Packed Dance Floor…

Guy & Janet’s Wedding – Holiday Inn Willmar MN

November 2, 2013 by Aaron

DJ Julian and I made the trek from Duluth to Willmar MN, a 4.5 hour drive, to DJ and MC Guy & Janet’s wedding at the Holiday Inn Hotel.  We actually did sound for the ceremony beforehand at a Church about 30 minutes away in Cosmos MN, and then made it back to the Holiday Inn for the reception.

The room looked spectacular before we arrived, and with our purple uplights we made the room look even more amazing.  The whole night was a non-stop blast as we danced the night away after an awesome dinner.  But before we got to the dancing, we did a Love Story for Janet & Guy.  Many people commented on how they hadn’t ever been to a wedding that had a love story before, and they really enjoyed it.  Then during the spotlight dances, I had a custom recording where Janet (the Bride) recorded a special message to her Dad for the Father/Daughter dance.  Once the dance floor opened up,  the crowd wanted an interesting mix of both country music and pop/dance music, and I happily played guest requests all night long.  The dance floor was constantly packed!

After we ended the night and got everything packed up, we drove back to Duluth.  This happened to be daylight savings weekend, so we gained an hour on the drive back, thankfully giving us an extra hour to sleep in once we were home.
