Wedding #2 of a back-to-back wedding weekend near the Metro… This one was at Settlement Hill Farm over in Hudson WI. This venue is great! The owners were amazing to work with, and the Barn is renovated into a nice rustic wedding venue. My clients: Peter & Jessi were equally amazing, and we had the time of our lives dancing the night away! If I remember correctly… their parents home-brewed 160 bottles of wine just for the wedding!!!
This is my first time at BayView Event Center, and it is an awesome venue, the staff were wonderful and the ceremony down by the docks was beautiful. Tony & Sara were married on the shore of Lake Minnetonka, and then we had an excellent dinner and this crowd really liked to dance. Instead of doing a typical garter toss, they opted to do a garter auction, and I was the auctioneer. We had a bit of fun with that as the sorority sisters and fraternity brothers got into a bidding war against each other for the garter.
I played pretty much non-stop guest requests all night and the crowd was loving it. The energy on the dance floor carried through until the very end when the lights came on and we had to stop.
Wedding #2 of a 2-wedding weekend, I travelled all the way down to Prior Lake, MN to the wonderful Legends Golf Club. This was an amazing venue and the staff was wonderful. I had DJ Julian with me and we nearly brought down the house! At the end of the night, the party just did not want to stop.
I accidentally ended up leaving my tuxedo suit coat at Legends Golf Club and had to go back the next day to retrieve it. Thankfully when I’m DJ’ing in the Minneapolis / St. Paul area I stay with family so I don’t have to drive back to Duluth late at night.
