Italian/Puerto Rican Wedding in Disney – Orlando DJ
Author: arnoldooffermann // Category: WeddingsIn Italy, Sunday weddings are the luckiest…. well in Lisa and Anthony’s case: they were extra lucky– it was the day right after Valentine’s Day!
As an MC, I was in awe of the massive orchestration of this wedding. I knew that a party with 150 Puerto Ricans and Italians, half who are from the Bronx, would be out of this world… I just wasn’t prepared on how elaborate everything was.
Hosted at Disney’s Atlantic Dancehall, the route there (Boardwalk) was breathtaking and had that typical Disney charm. A string quartet played music while my assistant, Kyle, and myself got ready for the evening. We spoke with Joe, the lead singer of The Benjamins. This wasn’t some rinky dinky band… hailing from NJ with over 250 shows a year, and opening for major acts such as Lifehouse, Red Hot Chili Peppers, amongst others, this was a band that promised a big show.
And they delivered! Tag teaming between their music and mine, we kept the floor packed.
From the DJ’s side, they danced to EVERYTHING Lisa requested…however we did a spin on her music and did the electro/house versions and they LOVED IT! This was a high-energy crowd and slow songs wasn’t cutting it for them– that was all done during dinner. My favorite part of the night was when Lisa requested Snoop’s “Nuthin’ but a G Thang” and I saw Grandma out there dancing! SWEET! Being a bi-lingual Hispanic DJ really helped here!
