Crag Rat Hut Wedding Hood River Oregon
Perched on a hill overlooking the surrounding valley with an incredible view of Mt. Hood, Alex and Josh’s wedding and reception was held at Crag Rat Hut in Hood River, Oregon on Saturday, August 6, 2022. The ceremony and dancing later were held outside on the large wraparound deck.
Crag Rat Hut Wedding Ceremony Highlights:
- Wedding Party Entrance: Jon Bellion – To My Future Wife…
- Bride Entrance: Caamp – Strawberries
- Bride/Groom Exit: Ray LaMontagne – You Are the Best Thing
Guests gathered for dinner inside the large event room on the main floor. This area has a small built-in sound system with a cordless microphone and receiver. For background music, I connected my iPad and played a variety of selections chosen by the bride and groom. The same playlist also played via my main sound system outside during this time.
Crag Rat Hut Wedding Reception Highlights:
- First Dance: Rayland Baxter – The Mtn Song
- Bride and Father Dance: SYML – Here Comes the Sun
- Groom and Mother Dance: Rascal Flatts – My Wish
- Last Dance: Semisonic – Closing Time
The temperature cooled down to the upper 70’s when the dance floor opened around 8:30pm and the twilight with the mountain in the background made for a magical evening
I played a little bit of everything from the classics like “Twist & Shout” and “Dancing Queen” to more recent hit songs such as “Happy” and “Cupid Shuffle”, plus guest requests for “Man! I Feel Like A Woman” and “Gasolina”, the latter led to an impromtu limbo.
Congratulations Alex and Josh and thank you for choosing PRO DJs.
