Wedding Reception at the Crystal Ballroom / Ft. Lauderdale

Sydney and Joe Ford celebrated their dream wedding at the Crystal Ballroom in Ft. Lauderdale, FL on 9/27/2024.  Approximately 150 close friends and family members arrived to the venue and were directed to the ceremony area to watch the happy couple tie the knot.  The cocktail hour took place at the main bar and that is where everyone enjoyed drinks and appetizers while Sydney and Joe posed for pictures.  As all of the guests entered the ballroom, I lined up the 20 member bridal party for the grand entrance.  Sydney chose The Business by Tiesto for the bridal party intros including her and Joe's.  The first dance was to I Get To Love You by Ruelle then Sydney danced with her dad to Yours by Post Malone then Joe danced with his mom to You've Got A Friend by James Taylor.  The toasts were given by Natalee (MOH) and Jared (BM) then everyone found their seats and prepared for a buffet style dinner.  Joe provided me with a playlist that included top 40 and heavy EDM.  This was one of the most hyper group of guests that I have experienced this year.  They danced the night away and only took a break for the cake cutting ceremony and for the garter/bouquet toss.  The closing song for the evening was Opus by Eric Prydz and that put a bow on a fabulous Friday night wedding.

Congrats to Sydney, Joe and the entire Ford and Metz families.

Special thanks to the staff at the Crystal Ballroom for always providing 5 star service.
