Dancing Under The Stars
Jan 28, 2020
The Couple: Abbie & Bryant
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!
The Venue:
The Barn at Lone Eagle
in Sainte Genevieve. There is a reason this place is on our Preferred Vendors list, we LOVE The Barn! The owners, Chelsey & Chandler, are a pure dream to work with and truly assets to the wedding industry. We met their new manager, Morgan, this time out and she was so friendly.
We follow The Barn on IG
and have often fawned over their outdoor dance floor. It is beautifully hand-crafted from wood and is shockingly inexpensive to rent, if you would like to party outside under the canopy of lights.
This venue has such fabulous little touches, the lake, the fire pit, the biggest sky you can imagine!
The Vendors:
We got to work with some truly wonderful vendors at this shindig.
That dress! That was brought to you by The Bridal Shoppe
in Festus.
Food was catered by Farmington favorite, Dana’s Daily Dish. It looked sublime!
Butterfield’s
created the beautiful bouquets.
Hailey Pritchett (owner of Studio 573 Salon) was marvelous with the hair & makeup.
Both Grand Rental Station
and Forever Antiques
supplied some of the rentals.
And capturing the moments, we had the joy of working with PureSonic
as our videographers and Sarah Le’Ann Photography
for the still images.
The Details:
Everything was beautiful and classy. From the cake to the white linens. They had a pleasing little popcorn bar and a totally cute basket with take home blankets for outdoor cuddling. We were too busy to notice much else, to be honest.
The Party:
Entrance song for the wedding party was our custom mix of Bring Em Out by T.I., with Abbie & Bryant coming in to Crazy In Love by Beyoncé.
We kicked off the dancing with Justin Timberlake’s Can’t Stop The Feeling. We kept things clean and classy and kept the crowd moving without the “crutch” of line dances, only throwing in Cupid Shuffle by request. Highlights included the bride and her maid of honor sharing a moment to in The Black Parade, and the crowd rocking out to some old school Van Halen!
Abbie & Bryant shared their Last Dance to You And I by Ingrid Michaelson before scooting out early.
We continued on for another hour entertaining family & friends.
What an incredible night!

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!
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.

Brittany & Brenden are such a sweet couple! They had always dreamed of an outdoor wedding and we were honored to be invited to this dream! Surrounded by their family and friends, Brittany’s laugh and Brenden‘s honest smile were not just expressions of love, but the pure joy of starting a life with their best friend.
