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”.
Congratulations Jennie and Brandon and thank you for choosing PRO DJs.
Foundry at Oswego Pointe Wedding Lake Oswego
It was a perfect late summer day for Jessica and Oscar’s Foundry at Oswego Pointe wedding on Friday, August 26, 2022 in Lake Oswego, Oregon. Under partly cloudy skies and a comfortable high of 77 degrees, the ceremony was held outside on the Promenade overlooking the Willamette River.
Foundry at Oswego Pointe Wedding Ceremony Highlights:
- Wedding Party Entrance: Piano Guys – A Thousand Years
- Bride Entrance: Jason Lux featuring Nieka Moss – La Vie en Rose
- Bride/Groom Exit: Jason Marz – I’m Yours
For the reception, guests gathered for cocktails and dinner inside the Great Hall and the Riverside Deck. The Great Hall has a built-in sound system with speakers directly over the dance floor in the center. I did connect my sound system to the house system, but mostly to provide ideal sound everywhere for background music, toast and other events since I was setup on the far side of the room. My speakers combined with the house speakers provided a nice balance throughout the room.
Foundry at Oswego Pointe Wedding Reception Highlights:
- Grand Entrance: Rihanna – We Found Love
- Cake Cutting: Archies – Sugar, Sugar
- First Dance: Rick Hale & Breea Guttery – Fly Me to the Moon/Lucky Mashup
- Bride and Uncle, Groom and Mother Dance: Rod Stewart – Have I Told You Lately
- Bouquet Toss: Cyndi Lauper – Girls Just Want To Have Fun
Between the toast and cake cutting, the newlyweds played the shoe game. The best responses are to questions where couples disagree or they are not sure how to answer. There was a lot of double shoe raising to questions like “Who has the wackiest family” and “Who made the first move?”
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 tunes that included classic hits and country, along with more recent songs plus the family’s requests for Elvis Crespo’s “Suavemente”, Selena and more.
Congratulations Jessica and Oscar and thank you for choosing PRO DJs.
