What a fun quince! Jeisy, with the help of her mom, Jamillet, wanted a fun Quinceañera that involved games, dancing, and a few traditions. One bad thing did happen: THE AC FAILED; yet that didn’t stop anyone from dancing and having a good time. Our game show system was brought in, customized with question about Jeisy, her friends, family and favorites. The screen was also used for a special slide show that Jamillet created.
Lighting was simple, but beyond effective. Our 4Bar light along with the UFO centerpiece really transformed the room; and I also go to test my new ADJ Hypnotic RGB light. Since the theme centered around the moon and stars, it was common sense that the bliss would be brought out!
Check out the photos and video below. The video is a must-watch because we had a lot of fun doing a soul-train!
I met Brittany and her mom, Wendy, through Jillian’s Sweet 16, and also learned that Brittany is a student at Cypress Creek High and whose friends go to Freedom High . With these two factors in mind, I knew that we were going to have fun at her Sweet 16!
They chose a Cinderella theme, and having it at the Holiday Inn Castle in Orlando was the fitting choice. The former Doubletree is modeled to look like a castle, inside and out. It is definetly one of the more unique ballrooms in Orlando.
Because of the relatively size of the room (11′ tall ceilings and holds about 130-150 people max), Wendy didn’t need to order a huge Sweet16 package to impress everyone and fill the room. Our Video Explosion Lite package was perfect. The 6×8 screen was a nice centerpiece to the overall set up.
A custom grand entrance video was played (apologies to Disney, haha) to introduce her after the court came in. Check out that video, some photos, and a video summary below!
Let’s talk about the decorations- beautiful! All done by Jillian’s mom, Judy. Judy gave us a very detailed planner that was beyond professional. All the vendors were impressed by her thoroughly thought-out planning! Speaking of vendors, the Embassy Suites on International drive couldn’t have been more accommodating. Monica and I were beyond impressed by all the work they put in to make things easy for us and the client. If you’re looking for a Sweet 16/wedding hall in Orlando– this is THE place!
We brought out lighting; uplighting; dance on the clouds; projected stars with our Source 4s; monogram; uplighting; table lighting; a 12′ video screen for music videos, custom videos, and photos; and of course, a crazy amount of bass. The entire hotel could hear the bass rattle so we had to keep the bass down, haha.
The choreographer, Billy, was incredibly easy to work with and adapted his ideas and work with some last-minute changes and ideas for lighting. The overall production was very VERY sharp!
Check out the photos I took below as well as three video clips. The first video is the custom video we did for Jillian’s grand entrance; the second video was shoutouts from her friends and a couple music artists; the third video is the event log!
80% of my 2009 events are summarized here…. unfortunately a couple videos didn’t make it because 1) dumb hard drive deleted them 2) I didn’t film for privacy reasons.
Another large birthday party to add to the books– and this one went all out! With over 300 people for the dancing portion, this felt more like a homecoming than anything else! Dinner started with just a family and close friends VIP invite, but after it ended 200+ people poured in and didn’t stop dancing till the very end! Over 2000 glowsticks were tossed out for this dance. You have to check the link below to see more!
After seeing us perform at Hudson’s prom Bri’s mom and dad knew right away we’d be the perfect DJs to create the best Sweet 16 ever! After grabbing a bite to eat (lots of delicious food was brought in), Bri was given a special sweet 16 birthday wish from Thrill da Playa (69 Boyz) and the HB Fraternity. We took it to a whole new level with a 90s Flashback, featuring Barbie Girl, Wannabe, Believe, Space Jam, and much more! Be sure to check out the photos and video below!
Happy Birthday Frankie (that’s what everyone calls her). She and her friends really know how to party! It was a small celebration of about 50 kids at the Auburndale Recreational Hall… but Derek ( my other DJ ) and I really had a blast with them! Most of the kids went to Winter Haven High School (we did their homecoming 2005, 2006, & 2007), so I knew this crowd a bit ahead of time! Check out the amazing video below… and Frankie (or mom & dad), if you’re reading this: Thanks again and I wish you all the best!
