Allison & Ethan’s Wedding On The Farm In Yacolt
The Pomery Living History Farm in Yacolt, Washington located near the Lewis River in the Lucia Valley, was the setting for Allison and Ethan’s wedding on Saturday, August 27, 2011. It was a long drive out to the country that ended on a picture-perfect farm, large enough to have the ceremony and reception in two different locations on the property, but only a small part of the total 677 acre size of the entire farm.
It was a little warm sitting in the sun for the ceremony, but still a great day with the temperature no more than 85 degrees. I was able to set-up my sound system behind some trees near the house to keep it partially hidden from view, yet I had a a great view myself for coordinating the music selections.
Wedding Ceremony Highlights:
- Bridal Party Entrance Song: Bach – Air on the G String
- Bride Entrance Song: O’Neill Brothers – Canon In D Major
- Bride/Groom Exit Song: Shania Twain – From This Moment On
Following the ceremony, I moved the sound to another part of the farm that was much larger for accommodating the 150 guests for dinner and dancing.
Wedding Reception Highlights:
- Grand Entrance: Black Eyed Peas – I Gotta Feeling
- Cocktail/Dinner Music: Variety
- Cake Cutting: Colbie Caillat – You Got Me
- First Dance: Dave Matthews – You and Me
- Bride and Father Dance: Tim McGraw – My Little Girl
- Bride and Stepfather Dance: Faith Hill – There You’ll Be
- Groom and Mother Dance: Boyz II Men – A Song For Mama
Around 6:30pm, the dance floor was opened to everyone with a few classic hits to get things going, but current music was the star of the night as Ethan and especially Allison wanted to dance to everything popular on the radio right now. Guests packed the floor for Usher, Pitbull, Flo-Rida and other hot performers of today. I was scheduled to end at 8pm, but most guests were still there and having a great time, so I was asked to play another hour. The reception ended just after sunset.
It was a special day for Ethan & Allison. Best wishes and thank you for choosing PRO DJs.
