Wow! Three event weekend! Lots of photos and descriptions of a karaoke event in Davenport, a wedding in Lithia, and another one in Plant City. Check it out below!
First one was a karaoke party for the Providence Golf & Country Club in Davenport, Fl.. this place is GORGEOUS!
It was raining like never before, streets were flooding, cars were water skiiing, not a pretty site.

I was actually facing the right side of the picture… my van started spinning… and I was only only driving 15MPH! Only spun halfway through but it was enough for a new change of underwear. Driving down the road I saw a few other accidents and several cops, one at each stop light, to prevent any more accidents.

Flooding on the sides.. the photos do no justice on how deep the water is.

Just arriving there…

Inside the gates… really nice area.

The clubhouse.

The Karaoke setup, featuring the BOSE. 

15 minutes into the event and we’re full!

The crowd dancing in between Karaoke!

The kids were singing Hannah Montana’s If We Were a Movie.

This is Stephanie, she is an amazing singer.. apparently going pro. She was the crowd favorite. We also had a group of girls called the Cash Sistas who had coordinated dances as the girls sang karaoke.. they were also a crowd favorite!!

Move on to Saturday!
So here we are in Lithia, FL. We had no idea if we were in the right neighborhood until BAM! Out of nowhere appeared one of the most beautiful venues we’ve seen.
Matt & Karen were amazing with a crowd who not only were a lot of fun, but also danced to everything.. including Cher’s Believe, a techno version of Sweet Caroline, Electric Avenue, and other assorted goodies. Although she is Polish, it wasn’t a traditional Polish wedding. Kelly was the MC and I did the DJing. It was fun not having to MC for once and just enjoy being on the ones and twos (and threes and fours!)


Karen & Matt’s colors matched the carpets and ceiling

This room screamed “UPLIGHT ME!” Next time we perform here, we’ll discuss uplighting options with the couple.


The Gardens… the dude in the second pic was Kelly.

The door handles, edges, hinges, opening mechanism, etc… everything was CHROME!

Head table.

Since the doors were DEAD CENTER of the room, our DJ setup was on the side.
EDIT: We arrived 3.5 hours early because we were coming in from a Bridal show and drove straight there. We set up and had a couple of hours to relax, which was nice. When I snapped this shot I forgot to clear my table. The bottle sitting on it is the wine bottle that the couple bought for the “winners” of the anniversary dance. The coordinator placed it on our table so it won’t get lost.

First dance.

Stars! We brought out the Starfield compliments of the house.


All focus on Karen & Matt.. the sign of a good MC (and DJ, can’t give Kelly too many props now!)

Mother/Son Dance.

Father/Daughter dance.

The Chicken dance? NO WAY! The request came from Karen and it went great! We did the trance version!


Yup.. RICK ROLL!

Happy couple with the world’s best entertainer..oh, and Kelly’s there, too.

LOL.

Sunday, another wedding where I was just the DJ while Kelly MC’d.
This was in Plant City.
It was thundering bad.. all the lights dimmed and the BOSE started making a horrible sound as the voltage dropped to 90V. I quickly shut the Furman (Power Strip) off.
Despite that, the wedding went awesome! Holly & Karen are a great couple who were referred to us from another wedding Kelly and I did. She wanted all cheese… the dance floor was open for only about 45 minutes (lots of events and large dinner.. 300 people in four hours) but it went so well! Chicken Dance, Macarena, Cupid Shuffle, Cha Cha Slide, Electric Slide… the entire dance floor was packed. It goes to show you that cheese can still work and is still lots of fun… especially when they were all requests!

The room..

Our setup.

Find the speakers!
Didn’t get a chance to do a lot of pics…

Kelly and I with the couple.
