The Empress Estate Wedding Woodland Washington

 
Amanda and Ethan’s The Empress Estate wedding was held on Sunday, July 21, 2024 in Woodland, Washington.
 
After a run of hot days this month and thunderstorms coming through the area that morning, it turned out to be a perfect summer afternoon for the ceremony outside on The Woodland Hillside with moderate sunshine and the temperature a comfortable 72 degrees.

Per a request from the bride and groom, I produced one minute edits of the song selections they had chosen for the Bride/Son and Groom/Daughter dances so each of their children would get their own song.
 
The dance floor opened to everyone around 7:30pm and this group of 60 guests got right to it from the first slow dance to the fast numbers that followed, including favorites from The Beatles, Earth, Wind & Fire, Outkast, Justin Timberlake and more.
 



 
Nearly two hours later, the energy remained for hits from Earth, Wind & Fire, Beyonce and Usher, plus requests from the groomsmen for Meatloaf’s “I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That)”.
 


 
Congratulations Amanda and Ethan and thank you for choosing PRO DJs.
