Courtney & Jordan's Wedding

So it is really beginning to look like we live at The Atherton Hotel. This week we head back for the wedding of Courtney & Jordan. It's New Year's Eve Weekend and of all the people to come down sick this week. It is AJ. AJ is the DJ/Emcee for the night and has been battling the stomach bug that has been floating around.

Tonight will be a little more scaled back than most weddings, mostly because the bride and groom wanted it that way, but also because AJ is running on fumes and barely even is aware where he is at.

Once the bride and groom return from pictures with Daniel James Photography we have our grand entrance. The bridal party walks into "Forever" by Chris Brown and the Bride and Groom enter to "Happy" by Pharell Williams. Once Courtney & Jordan are seated we get to some toasts from the Best Man and Maid Of Honor.

Dinner is then served, another meal served up by the staff at The Atherton Hotel. Dinner is followed by cake cutting. Jordan and Courtney cut the cake to "Grow Old With You" by Adam Sandler, and were very nice to each other when it came to feeding one another.

Dinner was followed by the first dance to "Only To Be With You" by Judah & The Lion

This was followed by the Father/Daughter dance, Courtney's father has passed away and Courtney decided to share the dance with people who have been there to support her and guide her through the trying times. Courtney picked "No Hard Feelings" by Avett Brothers to dance with these special people to.

Next up it was time for Jordan to take the floor with his mother for the Mother/Son Dance. Jordan chose "What A Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong to dance to.

We then opened up the dance floor for the rest of the night and partied.

We closed out the night with "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran

Congratulations To Mr & Mrs Jacoby.

Louise & Evan's Wedding

This week we are headed to Laurel Mountain Winery in Falls Creek, PA, for the wedding of Louise and Evan. This couple has actually been married since December of 2016, but had issues with getting friends and family together for the reception until now. We were set up inside a pavilion that overlooked the vines for the winery. The cocktail hour music was provided by a local artist who played guitar and sang for the cocktail hour. This was a laid back event so the bride and groom mingled during the cocktail hour. Towards the end of the cocktail hour we lined up the bridal party and did a grand entrance and then ate dinner which was provided by some of the guests, who brought their own recipes. After dinner Louise and Evan took to the dance floor for their first dance as husband and wife...Something that they had waited over a year to do. For the first time friends and family watched them dance to Ed Sheeran and Beyonce's "Perfect". We then partied later into the ...

Leslie & Mike's Wedding

All photos used in this post are courtesy of NixPix Photography Today we are heading to Laurel Rock Farms in Mifflintown for the Wedding Ceremony and Reception of Mike & Leslie. AJ actually went to school with Leslie so was honored when he was asked to DJ their wedding. Upon arriving it was an unusually warm day for October. The ceremony was to have been outside but with blazing sunshine and temperatures already near 90 degrees, Leslie made the call to move the ceremony indoors. At 2PM, Mike and the groomsmen took their places down front as the Bridal Party made their way down the aisle. Then all the guests rose as Leslie made her way down the aisle to an instrumental version of "Marry Me" by Train. After the officiant presented the new Mr & Mrs Carter they walked back up the aisle to an instrumental version of "Beautiful Day" by U2. After a short receiving line, the bride, groom, bridal party, and families were taken for pictures by Nikkie...
