Jessica & Michael Harper / Palm Event Center / Wedding Videography

admin — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 21:40:40 +0000

We would like to share a highlight reel from a beautiful wedding we shot at the Palm Event Center in Pleasanton, CA. The idea of the video was to create an old fashion film effect with a few modern twists along the way. The bride asked us to create a video with three words in mind: Creative, elegant, and energetic. We felt we were able to accomplish her request in this 8-minute highlight reel.

Wedding Background:

The reception and ceremony took place at the stunning Palm Event Center in Pleasanton, CA, the cake was by Bev Tanaka and the florist was Jinger from The Flower House. We also had the privilege of providing the Event Lighting and Disc Jockey service.

Enjoy!

Thank you to Art of Photography by Karen Bates

The Wedding of Christoph and Lanelle at Rios Lovell Winery in Livermore, California

admin — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 20:47:23 +0000

I had the pleasure of DJing Christoph and Lanelle’s wedding on June 6, 2009 at Rios Lovell Winery in Livermore, California. The ceremony took place at the gazebo overlooking the vineyard in full bloom; it looked amazing. Karl Eckel, from Delford West Flowers, did the flowers for the wedding. The flowers he placed around the gazebo were stunning. He also added flowers to the cake and turned the cake from ordinary to astonishing. I was able to work with Erica Ramos from Erica Foto in San Francisco, California. They were so much fun to work with. When it came time to do the bouquet and garter toss, all of the brides’ single friends said they didn’t want to do the bouquet toss. Lanelle wanted to throw the bouquet, so she decided not to have Christoph toss her garter. Instead, she decided to throw the bouquet to the single guys. Everyone had a smile on their face when I made the announcement and the guys all went for the bouquet. The only catch was that the guy who caught it had to give it to one of the single ladies. I want to wish Christoph and Lanelle the best of luck and hope they have a great time on their honeymoon on the Cook Islands.

Peter and Elaine’s Wedding at Casa Real in Pleasanton, California.

I was the DJ at Peter and Elaine’s wedding on June 28, 2009 at Casa Real in Pleasanton, California. The ceremony took place outside in the courtyard. The temperature was around 108 degrees, but Nicole Ha from Nicole Ha Floral and Event Design still managed to make the ceremony site look amazing. Nicole waited until the last minute to take the flowers outside. She had made an archway out of hydrangeas and, to make sure the flowers looked their best, had her assistant spray the flowers down with water until the start of the ceremony. Peter had asked his long-time friend to be the officiant and his friend did an excellent job. Before the formal dances started, Peter and Elaine presented a slideshow that they had made. I have to say I was very impressed; not only did they have the photos, but the had filmed each member of their bridal party and had them say a couple of words. The newly weds didn’t want to have a traditional first dance, so they mixed it up. I started with “Love Of My Life” by Jim Brickman, then switched it up to the chorus of “Just Dance” by Lady Gaga. When I started it, they looked at each other like they didn’t know what was going on and then they turned to face their guests and did a dance that Peter is known for doing. After the chorus I went back to “Love Of My Life” to finish off their first dance. The photographer was Rebecca Stark. It was my first time working with her and she was a pleasure to work with. She was very professional and, when she took the bride and groom away to take photos, made sure that I knew where they were going. I look forward to working with her again. I want to wish Peter and Elaine the best of luck with their future together.

Laura & Andrew Stromberg Wedding / Sunol Valley Golf Club

admin — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 16:43:40 +0000

On June 27^th I had the privilege of DJing Laura and Andrew’s wedding at the Sunol Valley Golf Club. Although the wedding was intimate, the energy level was far from lacking. Laura and Andrew’s friends and family knew how to party and kept the dance floor full the entire time. The Sunol Valley Golf Club was a perfect setting for a summer wedding; the sun setting over the hills created a great backdrop from the wall of windows overlooking the golf course. Congratulations to Andrew & Laura Stromberg!

Philip and Jennifer’s Wedding, Hacienda de las Flores

admin — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 22:26:16 +0000

I was the DJ for Philip and Jennifer’s great wedding at the Hacienda de las Flores in Moraga on May 09, 2009. This was the first time that I had ever worked at Hacienda de las Flores. It is a romantic Spanish-style estate. Phillip and Jennifer had their ceremony outside in the lawn area and the reception was on a patio that had a beautiful fountain in the middle. Hacienda de las Floras also has a beautiful pavilion area where Philip and Jennifer took their photos after the ceremony. I also had the privilege of working with several fine wedding vendors for the first time. The wedding was coordinated by Christina Crawford from the Union Street Catering Company, the caterer was Wild Thyme Catering (their food was so good!), Melissa Campos from Captured Photography was the photographer, and Andrew Hsu from Studio MSV was the Videographer. What a great group of professionals! Congratulations on a beautiful wedding Philip and Jennifer, and best wishes for the future!

Ode to the Middle School Dances

admin — Wed, 27 May 2009 19:00:52 +0000

I have been DJing at middle school dances throughout the Bay Area since 1986 and when I started Fantasy Sound Event Services in 1989, school dances were my main focus. Since then, we have grown to specialize in all kinds of events, including: weddings, corporate, and social events. It just hit me at the recent Hillview Middle School dance in Menlo Park that I have been DJing middle school dances for over 23 years and I still truly enjoy them. The kids are at an age were I can still play games and have a lot of fun with them. They really like doing the Snowball Dance, Hula Hoop contest, Cha Cha Slide, as well as Conga lines and trains. I can even get them to do the Hokey Pokey, Chicken Dance, or Macarena from time to time. I am looking forward to the rest of the end-of-the-year dances.
