Godwin / Skelton Reception

2-9-13. Tonight I made my way to Tuscaloosa for Cassie and Stephan's wedding reception at the Hotel Capstone. This wedding was booked in a whirl. After cassie and Stephan got engaged they found out she was pregnant. Therefore they moved the wedding up to tonight. They even did a big reveal of the baby's gender at the reception. Nobody, including Cassie and Stephan had any idea of what the baby was going to be... except me. They wanted it to be a surprise for everyone so the results were handed to me personally earlier in the evening. I needed to know because I had to program a cool lighting effect based around the gender of the baby. I also had to share my findings with Melissa at the hotel who was to fill a box with either blue or pink balloons, which the bride and groom would open together. It was a great effect for the reveal with a giant ??? box and lights flashing pink and blue. When the box was opened, pink balloons flew out, the lighting in the room turned pink and I played "Thank Heavens for Little Girls". Ha. Good times. The pic above is of me playing the Shoelywed Game with them. Thanks to Megan Forehand Photography for the Pic.

Reception @ The Zone / Bryant-Denny Stadium

Thanks to Lance Holloway for doing this Video for me. He is an amazing Videographer and his talents really show here. This was a Southern Baptist Wedding. It was like pulling teeth to get some of these people on the dance floor. But, I did it and now I have a bag of teeth. j/k. Anyway, we did 54 Up lights in this massive room and made it glow so Red that it was viewable from across the street. Congrats Kelly and Jonathan Cash!

Shorr / Lofthus Reception

6/27/09. After my pool party I got a quick haircut and headed over to Flower Stem in Birmingham for Heather and Ben's wedding reception. I have known Heather and Ben for a couple of months. They come almost every Wednesday to Papa Saia's for Karaoke. Even the last couple of weeks I have hung out with them and their families until 2:00 a.m., so I knew that this was going to be one wild wedding reception. Oh yeah, They did not disappoint. This was probably the most fun I ever had at a reception (and that says a lot because I've had some amazing times at receptions). It was action packed from start to finish. Everybody danced all night long and had a great time. They even ordered the Cool Shots Photobooth to add a little extra fun for their guests and Heather and Ben left with the best wedding scrap book to date. Not only that we were lucky enough to have a very special guest show up, Elvis! These people dance, sang, cheered and screamed all night long. Seriously, They even went through 35 cases, that's right cases of coors light and 72 bottles of wine. This was one hell of a party and I'm glad that I got to be a part of this. Congrats Heather and Ben. Have fun in St. Lucia, you guys rock!

Deane / Moses Reception

6/20/09. Tonight was another wonderful trip out to the fabulous Wynfrey hotel. This evening I got to entertain the families of Jennifer and Matt Moses. This really was a story book wedding. They went all out from the food to the decorations, to the entertainment(of coarse). They even ordered the Feel The Beat lighting design which really made this room pop. The crowd was very receptive and eager to have a good time. They got out on the floor and danced they night away with Jennifer and Matt. Thanks for the great time kids. Congrats and have fun in Cozumel.

Nolen / Bierig Reception

6/6/09. Today I drove 2 hours west from my first time at the American Legion building in Fayette, AL. Mallory and Sam Bierig got married and had one of the best non-alcohol receptions I have gotten to be a part of. First of all, this building looked nothing like a boy scout post. It looked more like a high dollar wedding venue. Also, their wedding party was a lively bunch who helped initiate all the fun this afternoon. Congrats Sam and Mallory. Have fun in Myrtle Beach

Purdy / Pritchett Reception

5/30/09. Tonight was my maiden voyage out to Mountain View Gardens and Ballroom. Tonight was Leigh Ann and Roberts Wedding and Reception. This very a short and sweet ceremony and reception, but these kids packed a lot of fun in the 2 hour reception. Congrat Leigh Ann and Robert. Have fun in Barbados.

Koroknay / Antone Reception

5/16/09. Tonight I headed over to the American Village for good ole fashioned barn wedding. I'm kidding. The barn at the American Village is one of our favorite places to be on a Saturday evening. Kristi and Jason took the plunge this afternoon and left it up to me to entertain their friends and family. At first it seemed as if I couldn't get these people moving but all it took was good hour with the free beer and the dance floor opened right up. This was a very fun event and I thought the room looked awesome (with a little help from the Feel The Beat lighting design of coarse). Thanks to Pete and everyone at the American Village and also the wonderful catering staff from the Wynfrey.

Carmon / Winegar Reception

4/25/09. Tonight was Courtney and Paul Winegar's Wedding Reception at the Sonnet House in Leeds, AL. This was one amazing party. I always love playing the Sonnet House because I get to use a big beautiful white house as a backdrop for an elegant light show. This always creates a lot of high energy moments all grouped together with a touch of class. Tonight was no exception. I'm not sure if Courtney or her father Charles were the life of the party. The danced and kept everyone going literally all night long. The dance floor stayed packed as made my way through the years and genres I knew would keep everyone moving. Awesome show, awesome guests and another awesome night at the Sonnet House. Congratulations Paul and Courtney. Pictures coming soon.

Flippo / Hathcock Reception

1/31/09. We had an amazing time this weekend at the Sylacauga Country Club. I want to thank the staff for making me feel right at home and preparing an awesome spread. Erin and Russell are a beautiful couple and I am glad I got to be a part of their very special day. Their friends and family packed the dance floor all night long and almost wouldn't let me leave. Here's what Erin had to say about my services:

"Joe was amazing! Everyone thought he did an excellent job. He ran things efficiently kept everyone entertained and made us feel like we were his old friends. We would definitely hire him again!!! People were asking about him after the wedding. His performance did the talking for him. he did a GREAT job!!!"

Thanks for such a wonderful time, and a very special thanks to Devine Photography for all the wonderful pictures.
