The Aerie at Eagle Landing Wedding Reception
Heba and Anan celebrated their wedding reception with friends and family at The Aerie at Eagle Landing in Happy Valley, Oregon on Wednesday, August 17, 2022 outside in The Bellevue Garden and partially inside The Grand Ballroom. The ceremony was held a few days earlier at a separate location.
Upon their arrival, I introduced the couple as they were coming up the stairs. The bride asked me to first play Coolio’s “Gangsta’s Paradise” and after the first line “As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death”, say “just kidding” and quickly switch to “Drej Ya Ghezaleh” by Omar Alabdallat. All of their guests then joined them on the dance floor.
Dinner followed and background music was a mix of soft/medium tempo instrumentals from Piano de Bossa.
The Aerie at Eagle Landing Wedding Reception Highlights:
- Cake Cutting: Abdulrahman Muhammed & Mohab Omer – Crazyness
- First Dance: Ruelle – I Get To Love You
- Father/Daughter Dance: Celine Dion – Because You Loved Me
- Groom/Daughter Dance: Baby Shark
- Last Dance: Jesse McCartney – Beautiful Soul
A hot day turned into a cooler night, but the dance floor was heated from the start with nearly everyone joining in for opening song “Hatgawez” by Saad El Soghayar. Other popular Arabic and English selections such as “Allah Aleik Ya Sidi” and “This Is How We Do It” were also well-received.
Congratulations Heba and Anan and thank you for choosing PRO DJs.
