Brian & Crystal - Sheraton Carlsbad Resort & Spa


It was my first wedding at the new Sheraton and it's a great venue. Excellent food, an accommodating staff and a view of the ocean, what's not to like. Brian and Crystal's wedding was a blast  - high energy all the way! I had a great team to work with - Julie Scrivener was the coordinator and  Carrie McCluskey was the photographer. The 1st dance was "Stay With You" by John Legend and "OMG" & "The Way I Are" were the hits of the night.

Chris & Caitlin - The Grand Del Mar Resort





The Manchester Salon at the Grand Del Mar is in my opinion about as good as it gets for a small reception...stunning! Caitlin and Chris were a blast and I really enjoyed working with Chris's mom Candy on details. The coordinator was Kelly Aull, Joshua Aull was the photographer and the amazing florals were by J Design Floral Studio, what a team! The couples first dance was "You and Me" by Dave Matthews and the dance floor was full all afternoon.

Dear Mike -Thank you for the pictures.... I enjoyed them! I also want to express our appreciation to you for the excellent job you did at Chris and Cait's wedding reception. Every comment we receivedabout the music and the D.J. was a glowing compliment. You are so professional and yet very approachable and extremely easy to work with. Chris and Cait were thrilled with the entire event and how you set the mood at the beginning of the reception and carried it out until the end. I loved the fact that you were always "in control" and never let the event "sag" or lose steam. Thank you again and I certainly hope we have the opportunity to use your services again!
Warmest regards,
Candy Metcalfe

It was a beautiful day at the Thursday Club, the weather was outstanding and the reception a blast! James and Angela were both absolutely wonderful to work with and I wish them all the best. Their 1st dance was 'Come Rain or Come Shine" by Ray Charles, what a tune. I had the pleasure of working with Joshua Aull as the photographer and Entertainment At Large did the uplighting.

Jay and Vanessa were a wonderful couple to work with. This wedding was all about family and fun, that made my job easy as they had great families that liked to have fun! The newlyweds first dance was "Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis Presley and the hit of the night was "Respect". Los Willows is another very unique location up in Fallbrook, you've got to like the bride coming in by boat!
