Rachel and Shane’s Wedding at Casa Real
Dec 22nd
Fantasy Sound Event Services would like to thank Rachel and Shane for allowing us to be a part of their special day. It was our pleasure to provide not only DJ Entertainment but also Event Lighting for their wedding at Casa Real at the Ruby Hill Winery. We would also like to thank the fantastic vendors who also helped to make Rachel and Shane’s dream a reality. Guests were surrounded by vibrant flower arrangements created by Nicole Ha. After a night of dancing the guests were able to recharge on delicious cake prepared by Jen’s Cake. Our thanks also goes out to Jennifer Skog from Jennifer Skog Photography who not only captured these incredible moments but also provided us with these photos.
When we receive thank you notes, like the one below from Rachel and Shane, it makes us feel that all the hard work we put into our event is truly appreciated.

Rodney & Kelly’s Wedding at Rios-Lovell Winery
Dec 18th
I was the DJ/Master of Ceremonies for the wedding of Rodney and Kelly at Rios Lovell Winery in Livermore, California. I went to school with Rodney and knew many of the guests from high school. It really brought me back to my high school years. They had a beautiful ceremony out at the gazebo. The caterer was Scott’s Catering and the food was fabulous. I also had the opportunity to work with Heidi Huber from Heidi Huber Photography. She took some amazing and different photos. When toast came along, the father of the bride had many presents for his new son-in-law, to welcome him to the family; including a raiders t-shirt. When he brought it out everyone screamed because the Oakland Raiders had beat the Kansas City Chiefs earlier in the day. I want congratulate Rodney and Kelly on their beautiful wedding.

Fermin & Jennifer’s Wedding at Rios-Lovell Winery
Oct 27th
I had the pleasure of working with Fermin and Jennifer on their wedding at Rios Lovell Winery in Livermore, California. I was their DJ/Master of Ceremonies. They hired their florist, Yasmin from Wildflower Event Florals, to be the wedding coordinator as well. She not only did an amazing job with the flowers, but did an excellent job as the wedding coordinator. I also had the pleasure of working with Kate from Kate Harrison Photography. She is so easy to work with and her work is outstanding. On her way to Rios Lovell, she saw a field that she thought would be great to take photos in. After the ceremony, she had both of them climb in her mini and drove them down to the field to take the pictures. During the ceremony, they told the story about the two of them and how they came to be. They went to high school together and after high school they both went off to college. After college, both went off to other countries. They meet again when they both moved back home and happened to be at the same gym. That is when the relationship started. After dinner we started with the formal dances and got the party started. They danced the night away and had a wonderful time. I want to wish Fermin and Jennifer the best of luck.
The Wedding of Andrew and Merit at Rios-Lovell Winery in Livermore, California
Oct 21st
I had the pleasure of being the DJ and Master of Ceremonies for the wedding of Andrew and Merit at Rios-Lovell Winery in Livermore, California. Their mindset for their wedding was to party and have a good time. They had planned a short ceremony out at the gazebo at Rios-Lovell, followed by a brief cocktail hour. After the ceremony, they were ready to get the party started. There was a thirty-minute cocktail hour to let the guests grab a drink and find their seats before we started formal introductions. Once everyone went through the buffet, we started their slideshow. Before we started the dancing, their photographer, Ben from Benjamin Photography, took them outside to take some sunset photos. Ben was such a great photographer to work with. He is so laid back and always made sure I knew where he was taking the bride and groom. When they got back we started the formal dances. After a while of open dancing, the groom was ready for his special dance. It is a tradition for him to break dance at events he attends. Everyone circled the dance floor and I turned on “Breakers Revenge” by Beat Street. Everyone went wild. I want to congratulate Andrew and Merit on their marriage and wish them the best of luck.

The Wedding Of Andrew and Rachel at Casa Real in Pleasanton, California
Oct 16th
I recently had the pleasure of being the Master of Ceremonies at the wedding of Andrew and Rachel on July 12, 2009 at Casa Real at Ruby Hill Winery in Pleasanton, California.
When I arrived, the guests were enjoying the cocktail hour in the Amber Room, where Krista Strader was playing the harp. The bridal party was outside taking photographs with Dave from Lepori Photography. It was my first time working with Dave and it was a pleasure working with him. He showed me some of the photos he had taken in front of the fountain at Casa Real and they were stunning. When it came time for the formal introductions, I introduced the bridal party to “Let’s get It Started” by The Black Eyed Peas. After dinner was served, the bride and groom presented a slideshow for the guests to watch while they enjoyed their dinner. Right after the slideshow, we went right into the first dance; Rachel was ready to get the party started! They danced to “Every Time I Close My Eyes” by Babyface. Then we went into the father/daughter and mother/son dances, followed up by the bridal party dance. Once the bridal party dance ended, I introduced the band, Touch N Go. Touch N Go played an hour set, and then I played a couple of songs before the cake cutting. The cake was from Jen’s Cakes in San Jose, California. The cake was incredible, one of the best I have ever seen. Oh, and did I mention delicious? Once we had finished all the formal events, I threw it back over to Touch N Go. At the end of the night I played the last song, “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey. Everyone who was still there got up and on to the dance floor and danced around the Newlyweds. Congratulations to Andrew and Rachel on their spectacular day.

Chad and Jaimi Critten’s Wedding at Heather Farms in Walnut Creek
Oct 13th
I had the pleasure of being the DJ at the wedding of Chad and Jaimi at Heather Farms in Walnut Creek, California. I have known Jaimi since high school; nothing makes you start to feel your age like DJing the wedding of an underclassman of yours! Chad and Jaimi had their ceremony in the gazebo in the rose garden at Heather Farms. It was such a beautiful location to have a ceremony. I had the pleasure of working with Renee Powell, with Delightful Occasions. She was such an easy wedding coordinator to work with. She always made sure I knew what was going on. I also had the pleasure of working with Katie from Gardner Photography & Design. She was also incredibly easy to work with and I always knew where she was. When it came time to the first dance, Chad had picked the song “Then” by Brad Paisley. It was supposed to be a surprise for Jaimi but he told her the week before the wedding. Everyone had a great time dancing. At Heather Farms there is a wall of windows, and the guests lined up on both sides of the windows and danced with each other. I want to congratulate Chad and Jaimi on their special wedding day.

Danny & Alicia Sanchez Wedding at the Palm Event Center
Sep 8th
It is funny how the weather in July can be so unpredictable. On a, what seemed like a beautiful July day, were chances of rain. The ceremony was to take place on the patio overlooking the vineyards of the Palm Event Center. As the ceremony approached, the lingering clouds parted and the sun washed down, creating that perfect outdoor wedding. As the DJ and Emcee of the wedding, it is imperative to work with a good team and tonight was no exception. I had the pleasure of working with Mark Peters from Peters Photography and Monique Bogni from the Palm Event Center, who is always at her best. Danny & Alicia Sanchez started their new life together among family and friends.
