Brigid and Jeremy’s Estancia La Jolla Wedding
Brigid and Jeremy got married and had their entire wedding at the magnificent Estancia La Jolla Resort and Spa. It was a great celebration from beginning to end! I was honored to help provide DJ/MC and Lighting services and at the end of the day, to have been part of a big party!! The ceremony started on the hottest day on record for much of San Diego – weather apps were showing 100+ temps and mine pulled up 102 for La Jolla at 3pm . . the ceremony started at 4:15pm. The wedding ceremony was held on the Olive Lawn and everyone handled...

William and Suzanne got married! And they did it at the Hilton Torrey Pines which is one of the great wedding venues in San Diego. It was my second time in the Grande Ballroom at the Hilton Torrey Pines in the last few months. I was in the same ballroom set, with the same floor plan back in February. Ironically, I worked with Thomas of Aqua Vivus (videographer) at that same wedding too. They got married down on the lawn where a harpist supplied music and the hotel supplied the sound system so I got a bit of a break from the extra time and...
read moreBrian & Monique’s Coronado Marriott Wedding
Brian and Monique got married at the Coronado Marriott and it was a great day for sure. Monique ensured that everything was top notch, from the ceremony details to the tent draping and lighting to the florals on each table. Even though it was extremely hot, brightly lit by the sun and a long day – it was a big success. For me, it was the 2nd wedding in a row at the Coronado Marriott outside in the tent (Too bad I couldn’t leave everything there.) The ceremony was on the West Lawn and covered by others. Guests were then escorted...

This is an offbeat post here on my wedding blog. Yesterday was odd for numerous reasons – a full moon maybe? A few odd things here and there, but after a full day at “work” from a wedding, I was driving home on Northbound I-15 and was approaching Mira Mesa Blvd exit. It was 12:45am. I saw a faint plume of faint smoke (or what could have been steam from a building, etc.) up on the left (West) side of the freeway. It was just about unremarkable, but as I approached the exit, my periphial vision caught what I could have...
read moreErik & Amber’s Coronado Marriott Resort Wedding
Erik and Amber held their stunning August wedding at the Coronado Island Marriott Resort and Spa and I was very excited to provide DJ/MC services and wedding lighting for this special day! The beautiful ceremony was held outside in the well-manicured landscape that features the San Diego Skyline as a gorgeous background, followed by a cocktail hour held outside on the resort lawn. We helped set the mood for the cocktail hour by supplying a remote wireless sound system featuring the Zeen String Quartet. To bring the outdoor tent to life we...
read moreAre Your Electrical Cables Exposed
I was setting up for a wedding at a local venue here in San Diego that has multiple rooms and there was another wedding in a nearby room. Like most curious professionals, I went in to scope things out. It was a simple reminder of how sometimes the littlest of things may be overlooked . . . but unfortunately, not un-noticed . . . Where do your Extension Cables and Cords go? The “DJ Table” against the wall was littered with exposed cables, a power strip, a table linen/skirt that was well too short and generally what I would call a...
read moreJesse & Steph’s San Diego Botanic Garden’s Wedding
Jesse and Stephanie held their unique, early afternoon Monday wedding at the San Diego Botanic Gardens (aka Quail Botanical Gardens in Encinitas) and it was a memorable day for sure. It was extra special for me too since I know Steph from my Running Club. BTW – She was training for a half marathon while planning her wedding! The Ceremony was held in the Walled Garden which provided a quiet, secluded area for them and their guests. Music was supplied on the guitar by a close friend. After the ceremony, guests were escorted tot he Lawn...
read moreMarina Village Wedding String Lighting & Uplights
Was glad to help out Zoe’s wedding at Marina Village by providing champagne colored uplighting and string lights inside the Captain’s Room. We put a total of 12 champagne colored uplights around the room and wrapped each of the 4 columns in white string lights. Since we did not provide DJ/MC Services, there are not alot of pictures of the reception itself, but got a few at the end as they were cleaning up. I got to meet up with Zoe and her family after the wedding and they LOVED how it transformed the room! Marina Village...

Callen & Ally got married at the Catamaran Resort in San Diego and this one was extra special and fun for a few reasons. I met Callen, the groom, 9 years ago through the Best Man, Antonio, a mutual friend of ours so it was a big day coming. It was great to see alot of other mutual friends at the wedding as well. Not only that, but Callen & Ally put together a great vendor team which makes things much more enjoyable and run smoothly. They held their Ceremony on the North Lawn and I provided a complete “String Quartet”...

I wanted to get pics up from an absolute rocking wedding from last night. Even after a 9 hour wedding (Ceremony 2pm, Reception ended at 11pm w/ no downtime in between aside from a 10 minute car ride), Bill & Gabby and their guests had an absolute party from beginning to end.
