Ben & Andrea - The USS Midway Museum

An aircraft carrier might not be every brides idea as to the perfect venue but it was Ben and Andrea's dream location. (and one of my all time favorite venues) Ben is a Marine aviator and Andrea is a Air Force physician, it was a perfect match.

The newlyweds first dance was "Then" by Brad Paisley. Some of the other favorites of the night were Yeah by Usher, Give Me Everything by Pitbull, Billie Jean by Michael Jackson and of course I'm on a boat by T-Pain. It was great to see the Hanger Bay rocking all night.

A venue like an aircraft carrier needs a great team and we had one. Kelly Aull with Mint Weddings and Aimee with the USS Midway kept the whole night flowing smoothly. LaVonne with Adoration's did an amazing job on the florals and I got to work with Boyd Harris as well, one of my favorite photographers. The food was delicious, a big thank you to the chef and Kimberly and her team from Crown Point Catering.

Cake did the cake and we got a bonus treat with Gourmet Mini Party Donuts from Sensational Treats, they are always a hit. Entertainment at Large provide the up lighting and the 42 foot white drape that served as a back drop to the celebration. Ben and Andrea are a special couple and I know they will share a great life together!

Jerom - Alyssa - The Prado at Balbo Park

 Jerom and Alyssa chose "I'll always be right there" by Bryan Adams as their first dance as husband and wife and the dancing kicked in from there. The reception was in high gear most of the night!

Some of the crowd favorites that night were "Get Low" by Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz, Cupid Shuffle by Cupid, Single Ladies by Beyoncé and Sweet Home Alabama by Lynrd Skynrd.

Thanks to Kelly and the Mint Weddings team for coordinating another fantastic night, they make my life easy. Adorations Botanical Artistry created the amazing centerpieces, Entertainment At Large handled the lighting and Joshua Aull Photography was the photographer. Thanks to Sally and The Prado at Balbo Park team as well for great food and service.

Congratulations to Alyssa and Jerom!

Cody & Jen - The Rancho Bernardo Inn

Cody and Jen had a beautiful ceremony overlooking the golf course at the Rancho Bernardo Inn and then it was Party On! Jen walked down the aisle to "Here Comes My Girl" by Tom Petty and the newlyweds 1st dance was to "Just The Way You Are" by Bruno Mars.

Hot Pink was the color theme and Kelly Aull and her team from Mint Weddings made the Bernardo Ballroom pop! LaVonne with Adoration Botanical Artistry did an amazing job with the florals and Entertainment at Large handled the lighting and drape design. Thanks to King Photography and Brett Alan Productions for being so great to work with and a special thanks to Gloria and the RBI team for a fantastic job as well.

The dancing shoes were on all night and we ended the reception at 1 AM with a full dance floor and head table!!

Some crowd favorites for dancing were "Give Me Everything" by Pitbull, 'The Way You Make Me Feel" by Michael Jackson, "Airplanes" by B.O.B. and "Party Rock Anthem" by LMFAO

 This was one great reception and  I wish Cody and Jen a long, happy and fun life together!
