Wedding Reception Aboard the Sun Dream Yacht

A Beautiful Wedding Aboard the Sundream Yacht

I was honored to be the DJ and MC for a stunning wedding aboard the Sundream yacht, for Valerie and Lenny cruising along the picturesque intercoastal waters. As guests boarded, I welcomed them to the top deck, where the ceremony would soon take place.

The Ceremony

Once all the guests were seated, the groom, Lenord, and his father, Constantine, who traveled ​​from Southampton, New York, made their way to the altar. I played soft background music as everyone awaited the arrival of the lovely bride. When the moment arrived, Valerie walked down the aisle, escorted by her daughter and two sons, to the beautiful notes of "The Prayer" by Josh Groban. After they exchanged vows and were pronounced husband and wife, the recessional music, a wedding march, filled the air with joy.

Cocktail Hour

Following the ceremony, I invited all the guests to enjoy a cocktail hour, where I curated a mix of R&B, '80s ballads, and some country tunes. The atmosphere was lively as everyone mingled and celebrated the couple.

Grand Entrance and First Dance

The grand entrance was a highlight of the evening! I invited everyone to gather around the dance floor and played "Let’s Get Loud," encouraging the guests to clap for the newlyweds, Lenord and Valerie—affectionately known as Lenny and Lola. They made a fabulous entrance, and I announced their special first dance to "You Are My Everything" by Patrizio Buanne. Three-quarters of the way through the song, I invited all the guests to join them on the dance floor, creating a magical moment.

Dinner and Toasts

After a few love songs, I invited everyone to take their seats for dinner. Before the meal, Father Constantine offered a heartfelt blessing. As guests enjoyed their meal, touching toasts were shared by Lenny's father, Phil, Valerie's mother, Thotiana, and Valerie's sister, Tatiana, along with a few other guests who shared kind words.

Dancing and Special Moments

Once the meal concluded, we moved back to the dance floor on the upper deck to enjoy the stunning views and dance the night away. A special dedication dance took place, honoring the parents of the couple and thanking everyone for their participation in the joyous occasion.

Lenny took the floor with Valerie’s mother, Tatiana, for a beautiful mother-son dance to "You Raise Me Up" by Josh Groban, while Phil danced with Valerie in a heartfelt moment honoring those who couldn’t be there.

We followed this touching tribute with a lively bouquet toss, accompanied by "Single Ladies," and proceeded to the cake-cutting ceremony, where I played "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You)."

A Night to Remember

The festivities continued as the couple and their guests danced the night away until we docked. It was an unforgettable evening filled with love, laughter, and beautiful memories.

Congratulations to Lenord and Valerie! Wishing you a lifetime of joy and happiness together. Thank you for allowing me, DJ Jerry O, to be a part of your special day!
