Wedding Reception at the Sonesta Hotel / Fort Lauderdale Beach

Stephanie and Matthew Milner celebrated their wedding at the Sonesta Hotel in Ft. Lauderdale, FL on 6/22/2019.  The ceremony was held at a nearby church then all of the approximate 120 guests were invited to the Sonesta for the cocktail hour and reception.  At the cocktail hour all of the guests were greeted with drinks, appetizers and the smooth acoustic guitar sounds of our very own....  Myself and Chris decorated the ballroom with 24 amber, LED, wireless up-lights, dance floor lights, a monogram with their names and the date and our "Open Air" photo booth all provided by Eddie B & Company.  As the guests entered the ballroom I lined up the 22 member bridal party for the grand entrance. Stephanie chose Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars for the bridal party intros and Crazy Little Thing Called Love by Queen for her and Matthew's intro.  The first dance was to Perfect Symphony by Ed Sheeran and Bocelli then Stephanie danced with her dad to Because You Loved Me by Celine Dion and Matthew danced with his mom to My Wish by Rascal Flatts.  The toasts were given by Melanie and Tiffany (maids of honor) and Justin and Brian (best men) then everyone found their seats and prepared for a 3 course meal.  Stephanie did provide me with a play list that included top 40, classic rock, country and 80s and 90s dance hits.  The dance floor and the photo booth were rockin' that evening!!  Everyone really seamed to enjoy the mix of music I played and they only took a break for the cake cutting ceremony and the bouquet toss (no garter).  The closing song for the evening was Last Dance by Dona Summer (one of my favorites) and all of the remaining guests gathered on the dance floor with the happy couple for a send-off.

Congrats to Stephanie, Matthew and the entire Milner and Futscher families.

Special thanks to Jenna and her amazing staff at the Sonesta for always putting a smile on the bride's face.
