A Fantastic Night In A Beautiful Environment

The reception of Richelle and Mark was fantastic. The sky just wouldn't cooperate in the beginning, however everything worked out great.

The location was the Fuller Craft Museum ( http://www.fullercraft.org/ ) which happens to be unbelievable! Thanks to the coordinator Anne Marie

The music was set up inside in a very nice room with a fantastic wood carving display. I did however want to still play music outside - roughly 200 ft from where we were set up. Looking in the utility bag there was enough cable to have the music I know Richelle and Mark wanted for their guests outside with a nice rich crisp sound - at the same time be completely operational in the reception hall.

The music Mark selected for the cocktail hour was mainly '40s style jazz. It suited the occasion nicely.

The reception was a fun mix of traditional Lebanese music and some fantastic dance music. I was able to mix songs so they were long enough to preserve special moments and keep the atmosphere going.

During the night there was a surprise performance by Grammy nominated Chris Trapper - who sang "Away We Go". The song was amazing and will definitely be in my Secret Sauce collection.

The dance music continued - one of the highlights was "I Like To Move It" by Will.I.am. His version has some nice crowd participation that the guests really seemed to enjoy.

The night was rounded out with a traditional Lebanese dance, "In Your Eyes" by Peter Gabriel, and some fun songs like "Sweet Caroline" and "All Summer Long".

It was a fantastic night in a beautiful environment.

Congratulations Richelle and Mark!
