Lori & Zach’s Hot August Celebration

Published August 21, 2011 | By Rich Ellis

Wedding DJ: A return trip for me to the Troutdale House in Troutdale, Oregon turned out to be the hottest day of the summer so far. Around 4pm, we hit 96 degrees and with the mild temperatures we have had this year, it felt much warmer. This led some guests to move their chairs under a tree off to the side for the ceremony held in the park (see picture below). Everything went smoothly though, as Lori and Zach said their ‘I Do’s’ in front of an adoring group of guests.

The reception was held inside the house and the A/C was a welcome relief. The dinner hour was very comfortable, but once the dancefloor packed and guests were movin’ and shakin’, the heat returned and it looked sweltering out there, especially as I was playing a timely request for Nelly’s ‘Hot In Herre’ 🙂
