Jewish Wedding

Jewish Wedding Reception Portland Oregon

 
Originally scheduled with PRO DJs for October 2023, then rescheduled for January 2024 before being rescheduled again, Ilene and Gergo were finally able to celebrate their wedding reception on Sunday, June 2, 2024 at Congregation Beth Israel in Portland, Oregon.
 
Following the ceremony in the main sanctuary, guests walked across the street to Goodman Hall for the reception where they arrived to a variety of background music selections that included artists Adele, Lauryn Hill, Motown hits and more.
 
Jewish Wedding Reception Highlights:

  • Grand Entrance: Ruelle – I Get To Love You
  • Cake Cutting: James Taylor – How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)
  • First Dance: Rousseau – All Of Me (John Legend Piano Cover)
  • Garter Toss: Cyndi Lauper – Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
  • Last Dance: Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes – (I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life

After the couple’s First Dance, I invited everyone to join in for the opening slow dance before picking up the pace with “The Hora”. A mix of classic and recent songs followed, plus the newlyweds requests for 90’s hits from Ace of Base, Snap! and more.

Rich was amazing from start to finish. He helped plan, answered our questions whenever we had them and coordinated with other vendors the day of the wedding.

Made our wedding day that much better! -Michelle Love (Michelle & Heather’s Wedding) – Salem, OR (4-14-18)

Rich did a great job at my son’s Bar Mitzvah. He kept the energy at the right level throughout the evening. He kept the kids entertained during cocktail hour with games, which allowed the adults to mingle without a lot of distraction. Then, when it was time to focus on dancing, he played a great mix of music that had young and old alike dancing. We requested a couple slow dances and those were added in at just the right time. Great, memorable evening. -Anna Winthrop (Jordan’s Bar Mitzvah) – Portland, OR (8-25-18)

Monday Wedding Feels Like A Saturday

 
For Ariana and Andrew’s Monday wedding held on August 11, 2014 at the Green Villa Barn in Independence, Oregon, it was a sweltering hot and muggy Summer day, but most everyone was sheltered from the hot sun by several umbrellas and the promise of cold drinks on ice and air conditioning inside for the reception afterwards.
 
Monday Wedding
 
This may have been a Monday wedding held in the afternoon, but it felt like a Saturday night for the 100+ guests, who were excited to celebrate the newlyweds as they arrived for the reception with Jewish dancing and the traditional chair lifting to ‘The Hora.’
