Nicole and Chris Nelson celebrated their wedding aboard the Sun Dream Yacht out of Ft. Lauderdale, FL on 5/15/2022. Approximately 50 close friends and family members arrived to the dock that late Sunday night and boarded the Sundream. They were all directed to the top deck for the ceremony and cocktail hour. Chris is one of our very own DJ/MC extraordinaire's so when I was asked to DJ his wedding I was very excited. Chris and Nicole make the perfect couple and it was really a pleasure to help them enjoy their big day. After the ceremony some guests stayed on the top deck and some came down to the mid-deck for drinks and appetizers. I played a mix of tropical tunes while they all mingled then it was time for the grand intros. The entire 7 member bridal party including Chris and Nicole entered to We're Not Gonna Take It by Twisted Sister...PRICELESS!!!
There is a story behind that song so you will have to ask Chris or Nicole about that...lol
The first dance was to You're Still The One by Shania Twain then Nicole danced with her dad to Landslide by Fleetwood Mac and Chris danced with his mom to Stand By Me by Florence and the Machine. Everyone then made their way down to the main deck for dinner and toasts. The cake cutting and the bouquet toss (no garter) were performed as the evening progressed then as the Sundream approached the dock I played One More Time by Daft Punk to close out this amazing wedding.
Congrats to Nicole, Chris and the entire Nelson and Struelens families.
Special thanks to Capt. Pat and the entire crew aboard the Sundream for always providing a smooth ride.
