Christine and Jose Manuel Castillo celebrated their wedding at Benvenuto's of Boynton Beach, FL on 4/14/2022. Approximately 75 guests arrived to the venue that Thursday late afternoon to witness a beautiful ceremony in the courtyard. After the ceremony all of the guests were invited to the cocktail hour for drinks and appetizers. I played a mix of tropical tunes and latin favorites while they all mingled. Myself and Cecilia decorated the ballroom with 20 amber, LED, wireless up-lights, dance floor lights and our "Open Air" photo booth all provided by Eddie B & Company. As all of the guests entered the ballroom I lined up the 16 member bridal party for the grand entrance. Christine chose I Gotta Feeling by The Black Eyed Peas for the bridal party intros and Turn Down For What by Lil Jon for her and Jose's intro. The first dance was to At Last by Etta James then Christine danced with her dad to Time After Time by Boyce Street and Jose danced with his mom to Contigo Aprendi by Trio Los Panchos. The toasts were given by Cathlene (matron of honor) and Osvaldo (best man) then Christine's dad Mr. Praxmarer gave the welcoming speech. The 1st of a 3 course meal was served and the reception was in full swing. Jose did provide me with play list that included top 40, classic latin favorites and EDM. Amazing energy genres that had the dance floor filled up very quickly after dinner. They danced the night away and only took a break for the cake cutting and garter/bouquet toss. We had an "Hora Loca" for the last hour of the evening then I played the closing songs which were Alma Llanera by Simon Diaz and Closing Time by Semisonic.
Congrats to Christine, Jose and the entire Castillo and Praxmarer families.
Special thanks to the staff at Benvenuto's for their outstanding attention to detail at every event.
