Wedding Reception at The Addison

Alyssa and Jason Stitzer celebrated their wedding at the Addison of Boca in Boca Raton, FL on 7/18/2015.  All eyes were on Alyssa when she walked down the isle with her dad Mr. Milano at the ceremony.  It was a beautiful outdoor ceremony in the courtyard of the Addison.  Approximately 90 close friends and family members witnessed Alyssa and Jason seal their love with a big kiss.  Soon after, all of the guests were invited to the cocktail hour for drinks and appetizers.  Alyssa and Jason posed for a few more pictures then joined their guests at the cocktail hour where I played a mix of Rat Pack favorites for everyone to enjoy.  I also took the time to decorate the ballroom with 24 royal blue colored, LED, wireless up-lights and dance floor lights all provided by Eddie B & Company.  As all of the guests made their way to the ballroom for the reception, I lined up the 21 member bridal party for the grand entrance.  Alyssa chose Celebration by Kool and The Gang for the grand parents and parents, Out The Speakers by Milo & Otis for the bridal party and What A Feeling by Peter Lutz for her and Jason's entrance.  The crowd went absolutely wild when the happy couple entered the room!!  They went right into their first dance which was Latch (acoustic version) by Sam Smith then Alyssa danced with her dad to Cinderella by Steven Curtis Chapman and Jason danced with his mom to I Knew I Loved You by Savage Garden.  The toasts were given by Juliana (maid of honor) and Sam (best Man) then everyone found their seats for a 3 course meal.  Alyssa did provide me with a play list that included top 40, EDM, disco, classic rock, hip-hop and 80's dance hits.  Perfect mix of genres for this highly energetic crowd!!  They filled the dance floor after the meals and kept it like that for most of the evening.  The highlight of the evening was performing Shout by The Isley Brothers.  Most of Alyssa's uncles, cousins, brother and dad throw themselves on the dance floor Animal House style!!  Priceless!!  They did take a break to cut the wedding cake but did not have a garter/bouquet toss.  But the Tarrantella and the Hora was a must and they were performed after the meals also.  As the evening came to a close I played my favorite closing song which is New York, New York by Old Blue Eyes (Frank Sinatra).  All of the remaining guests gathered on the dance floor with the happy couple to wish them an amazing send off.  Congrats to Alyssa, Jason and the entire Stitzer and Milano families.  Special thanks to the staff at the Addison for always providing excellent service and always making it look easy.
