Dave Does 40 Karaoke Party Edgefield Attic

 
The day after Thanksgiving, PRO DJs brought the karaoke for Dave’s 40th birthday party held at McMenamins Edgefield in Troutdale, Oregon on November 24, 2023.
 
The birthday boy led the night singing Billy Idol’s “Rebel Yell” and he would be back for five more selections, including two duets with his wife. Guests sang everything from Wilson Phillips “Hold On” to Justin Timberlake’s “Senorita”.
 
The night ended with everyone joining in for Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline”.

DJ Steve Marker was setup near Elephant Plaza at the far end of the zoo and had ’em dancing until 9:30pm, while DJ Rich Ellis worked the entry way that saw a number of people dancing in the entry plaza until 10pm, especially in the final hour.
 
It was cold both nights, but it stayed dry on Friday.

The Foundry at Oswego Pointe Wedding

 
As I was setting up a small sound system on the Promenade overlooking the Willamette River at The Foundry at Oswego Pointe about an hour before Jennie and Brandon’s wedding ceremony on Friday, October 13, 2023, it was cloudy but comfortable outside, really nice, but that changed about 15 minutes before and good thing there were plenty of umbrella’s for the guests.

The Foundry at Oswego Pointe Wedding Ceremony Highlights:

  • Wedding Party & Bride Entrance: TTNG – Elk
  • Bride/Groom Exit: Panic! At The Disco – High Hopes

For the reception, guests gathered for cocktails and dinner inside the Great Hall. The venue has a built-in sound system with speakers directly over the dance floor in the center. With guest tables directly in front of my speakers, I did connect my sound system to the house system for background music and dancing, but used my complete sound system for the karaoke that followed.

The Foundry at Oswego Pointe Wedding Reception Highlights:

  • Grand Entrance: Selena – Bidi Bidi Bom Bom
  • Cake Cutting: Adam Sandler – Grow Old With You
  • First Dance: Ritchie Valens – We Belong Together

It was around 7:30pm when the dancing began, so there was some ebb and flow the first 30 minutes or so, but eventually the dance floor began to define a little more and filled for the fun fast songs that included classic hits along with more recent songs, plus Jennie’s requests for Elvis Crespo’s “Suavemente”, Marc Anthony, Lizzo and more.

At 9pm we switched to karaoke and the bride singing Paramore’s “Still Into You” for her new husband. The maid of honor went next and many other guests followed, bringing an energy that made that part of the night feel like an after party. The groom joined for the last song… Blink 182’s “I Miss You”.

Late September West Linn Oregon Wedding

 
After a week of rain, it was an absolutely perfect early Fall day for Makenna and Kadin’s wedding and reception on Saturday, September 30, 2023 in West Linn, Oregon.
 
The ceremony was held outside a Queen Anne Victorian home under a tall tree that provided shade for most everyone. I setup a second sound system to provide music and microphone for the officiant, as well as music during dinner at this same area of the property.
