Brides across the country, and world even, cry out "This can't be happening!" I have been in the wedding industry since 2001 and thought that I'd seen it all. Then the Corona Virus showed up. This changed so much for so many and it isn't even over yet. With almost everything in the country being cancelled or postponed, it doesn't come as any surprise that weddings are facing the same thing. This is terrible. My heart breaks for the brides-to-be that are forced to deal with this nightmare. WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS TOGETHER.

These are two young people that not only have it together, but are also warm, friendly, and totally down-to-earth! We were honored to be part of their celebration, as were all their guests. This wasn’t the type of event that guests attended “out of obligation” and you could tell. I’ve never seen newlyweds mingle more than these two!

We can’t lie, these two had us a bit concerned. It’s a bit tricky trying to plan a wedding with clients that live out of state. We were able to meet up at least once and they were so fun! Their tastes were more old school funk than the usual Top 40. This was a celebration primarily for Claire’s family with another one to follow back home for Dave’s family. They were both such good-hearted people!

Every couple has their own unique tastes and vision. With Abbie & Bryant, they wanted rustic indie folk. In creating their playlists, we sought out plenty of music that was new to us, some truly lovely songs! We don’t claim to be experts in every genre, but we love broadening our horizons as we discover new music. Back to Abbie & Bryant, they are really a cool young couple, classy & chic!

We love doing school dances! We were thrilled to get the opportunity to celebrate this year’s Homecoming with CCHS. One of the amazing things about the youth of today is their love of diversity! These young men & women danced all night to a live mix of today’s hottest hits, old school classics and even 80’s rock! The surprise hit of the night? Dixieland Delight by Alabama! The crowd went crazy when they heard this country anthem! Here at Gold Star DJ, we love sharing photos from our events so you can see the smiling faces and the lively dance floors. Photos & video from our events make for great promotional material for blogs like this. However, we do not take any photo or video recordings at any school dance or teen event. We value the trust you put in us to entertain your children and students and we respect the privacy rights of these minors.
