Shannon & John’s Wedding Reception – The Riverview – Simsbury CT
Shannon & John were married in a nearby church and their 140 guests came to The Riverview in Simsbury, CT for their reception. We provided DJ, Up-lighting in yellow around the room and their name in lights on the wall. My assistant, Ryan was even asked to do a little magic for guests during cocktail hour. John loved Ryan’s magic at one of the bridal shows when we first met.
When I say timing is everything when it comes to a wedding – I really mean it. Their photographer brought them to The Riverview nearly 40 minutes late. Introductions were nearly an hour off of when we had planned. The meal took longer because the kitchen was now trying to serve two rooms instead of 1 at a time. Their wedding ended at 11 and food was still coming out well after 9pm. We had so little time to dance. Everything had to be compressed into such a short time.
Introduction Song: Shipping Up To Boston – Dropkick Murphys
First Dance: Fly Me To The Moon – Frank Sinatra
Shannon & her dad: Somewhere Over The Rainbow – Izzy
John & his mom: I Will – The Beatles
Cake Cutting: Best Day Of My Life – American Authors
Anniversary Song: LOVE – Nat King Cole
Last Songs: Sweet Caroline, At Last
