Feels Like Summer March Wedding In Canby
It was a toasty 70 degrees with lots of sunshine for Katelynn and Justin’s wedding in Canby, Oregon on Saturday, March 7, 2015. The ceremony and reception could have been held outside at Oak View Acres, but who could have predicted it would be this nice, so early in the year.
The bride really liked the lighting inside, so we stuck to the plan. However, the large door remained open for most of the afternoon and evening and guests were still able to enjoy the view and feel of a warm Spring day.
Wedding in Canby Ceremony Highlights:
- Wedding Processional/Bride Entrance: Canon In D (Pachelbel)
- Bride/Groom Exit: Water Music (Handel)
For background music during cocktails and dinner, the newlyweds requested a mix of classic rock and Country favorites. The setlist included selections from Fleetwood Mac, Tim McGraw, Tom Petty and more. Guests were released to the buffet for dinner by answering fun trivia questions about the bride and/or groom.

There was still a lot of daylight left when the dance floor opened to everyone and with around 40 guests in attendance, it was mostly young children with their parents early on having a good time with classic oldies from The Beatles, Van Morrison, Brooks and Dunn and more.
Eventually, nearly everyone joined in for a good run of dancing fun with songs like ‘Billie Jean,’ ‘Old Time Rock and Roll’ and a request for ‘Play That Funky Music.’ We also got a little current with the latest smash ‘Uptown Funk,’ as well as ‘Happy’ and ‘I Gotta Feeling.’
Congratulations Katelynn and Justin.
