Melissa and Michael Valdes celebrated their wedding at Capriccio's Restaurant in Pembroke Pines, FL on 11/7/2025. The ceremony took place at a nearby church then all of the 50 guests were invited to the venue for the reception. They were greeted with drinks and appetizers as I lined up the bridal party for the grand entrance. Melissa chose Safe & Sound by Capital City as the intro song for the bridal party and Welcome To The Jungle by GNR for her and Michael's intro. The first dance was to Iris by Goo Goo Dolls then Michael danced with his mom to I Hope You Dance by Lee Ann Womack. The toasts were given by Megan (MOH) and both best men Jeff and Johnny then everyone found their seats and prepared for a buffet style dinner. Michael did provide me with a play list that included top 40, latin favorites, oldies and freestyle hits. After dinner the dance floor opened up and the reception was in full swing. The happy couple did have a cake cutting as the evening progressed and they really enjoyed the "Open Air" Photo Booth provided by Eddie B & Company. The closing song for the evening was Piano Man by Billy Joel as all of the remaining guests made a big circle on the dance floor and sang-a-long with the newlyweds.
Congrats to Melissa, Micheal and the entire Valdes and Dunmire families.
Special thanks to the staff at Capriccio's for always providing 5 star service.
