Wedding Reception Aboard the Catalina Yacht

Priscilla & Brian Costello celebrated their wedding aboard the Catalina Yacht out of Ft. Lauderdale, FL on 11/6/2020.  Approximately 50 close fiends and family members boarded the Catalina that Friday night and were directed to the top deck for the ceremony.  Everyone witnessed a beautiful ceremony then they all enjoyed drinks and appetizers at the cocktail hour while the happy couple posed for pictures.  I played a mix of tropical tunes until it was time for the grand entrance.  All of the guests made their way to the main deck for dinner and reception.  Priscilla and Brian chose to enter the reception to You Make My Dream Come True by Hall and Oats then Priscilla danced with her dad to Daddy by Abby Anderson and Chris danced with his mom to Through The Years by Kenny Rogers.  The toasts were given by Lexy (maid of honor) and Erik (best man) then Rosie gave the prayer before the meals.  The buffet style dinner was ready and the reception was under way.  Rosie did provide me with a play list that included top 40, country, 80s and 90s hits and classic Banda favorites (Tex-Mex).  Great mix of genres for this fun/energetic group of guests.  They danced the night away and only took a break for the cake cutting ceremony and the bouquet toss (no garter).  As the Catalina approached the dock I played The Cowboy Rides Away by George Strait and that ended a great Friday night inter-coastal wedding cruise.  Congrats to Priscilla, Chris and the entire Costello and Dominguez families.

Special thanks to Capt. Robbie and the entire crew aboard the Catalina for always providing a smooth ride.
