Wedding Reception at Isla Bella Beach Resort / Marathon

Briana and Mark Sergio celebrated their wedding at the Isla Bella Beach Resort in Marathon, FL on 9/26/2020.  This amazing wedding began with an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour on the beach.  I played a mix of tropical tunes while everyone enjoyed drinks and appetizers.  I also took the time to decorate the reception room with 20 lavender and blush, LED, wireless up-lights, dance floor lights and monogram with their name and date all provided by Eddie B & Company.  As all of the approximate 70 guests entered the ballroom I lined up the 18 member bridal party for the grand entrance.  Each couple had a separate song for their intro then Briana and Mark entered to 24k by Bruno Mars.  The first dance was to Nobody But You by Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani then Briana danced with her dad to My Wish by Rascal Flatts and Mark danced with his mom to What A Wonderful World by L. Armstrong.  Everyone found their seats then Cassandra (maid of honor), Dominique (best friend) and Geoff (best man) gave the toasts right before Mr. Salvatore (father of the bride) gave a blessing of the meals.  A buffet/station style dinner was ready and the reception was under way.  Briana did provide me with a great playlist that included top 40, classic rock, 80s and 90s hits and oldies.  After dinner the dance floor filled up very quickly!!  They all danced the night away and only took a break for the cake cutting ceremony (no garter/bouquet toss).  The last songs for the evening were Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond and Wagon Wheel by D. Rucker as all of the guests gathered on the dance floor with the happy couple.

Congrats to Briana, Mark and the entire Sergio and Salvatore families.

Special thanks to the staff at the Isla Bella Beach Resort for their excellent service.
