Wedding and Reception at the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens

Geoffrey and Kristine's wedding was held at the beautiful Morikami in Delray Beach, FL on Saturday, March 16th. The bridal party arrived early to take some pictures with the photographer by the water before the sun went down. The ceremony was held at the edge of the lake overlooking the Japanese Botanical Garden and forest just before sunset. Guests began to arrive shortly after 6pm to watch the two exchange vows. The bridal party walked down to Dig Up Her Bones by Michael Graves followed by Kristine, who walked down the aisle  to Nothing Else Matters by Metallica. The Officiant proceeded with the ceremony and ended with a prayer before announcing the couple as husband and wife. The new Mr. and Mrs. Montoya chose This Magic Moment by Misfits as their recessional song before leading the the bridal party and all their guests back upstairs for the cocktail hour. After the cocktail hour I asked that everyone to please be seated before introducing the Kristine and Geoffrey. At the couples request, the room was illuminated with beautiful amber LED up lighting provided by Eddie B & Company to match the bridesmaids dresses and centerpieces. The newlyweds walked in to Nothing Else Matters by Metallica and immediately joined hands in the center of the dance floor as they embraced each other and enjoyed their first dance. Following the first dance of the newlyweds, I invited Kristine's father, Donald to join her on the dance floor to dance for their first dance to My Little Girl by Tim Mcgraw. Geoffrey and his mother Kathy chose Simple Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd for the mother son dance, concluding in a huge applause from all their guests. After that it was a party for the rest of the night and everyone was dancing to my selection of Rock and Dance party favorites. Geoffrey and Kristine cut into their three-tiered black wedding cake around 10:15pm to Skulls by Misfits. The night ended at midnight with a fun light Saber send off as I played the Imperial March. Congratulations to Geoffrey and Kristine I had a great time partying with you guys - DJ ELOW
