Crystal Lake DJ and Video

Earlier this month Ameritune provided for the Crystal Lake DJ and Video  needs for the Joe and Staci Rybacek wedding at D’Andrea banquets. The reception went by quickly because it was so much fun! The toasts at the beginning of dinner really set the mood as the Best man and Maid of Honor had everyone laughing.

When talking with the Photographer before dinner, I told him about a wedding I did where the Photographer did all the table shots within the length of a song. Before the actual pics, he went around to all the tables and kind of pre set things up, saying that when the DJ announces the table shots, he will play a song and the Bride and Groom will literally run from table to table, taking pictures. The object being to complete the table shots within 1 song.

Sometimes, table shots can be a real pain on the butt to do, because it takes forever and people generally don’t want to get out of their seats during dinner.  By doing table shots like a Chinese Firedrill, a boring chore becomes a fun and exciting event, not to mention the genuine smiles that are captured on film. Well, tonights photographer liked the idea and Joe and Staci were up for it too, so we had some fun! Our videographer got a workout following them. You can see him on the far right hand side of the picture. I haven’t seen the footage for that yet, but I know it’ll be memorable. We played a fun game to give away the centerpieces and that ended up in the chicken dance which you can see was well received here.

Joe and Staci had taken some dance lessons and wanted a few swing songs played. They danced well together, and will only get better with time and practice at other folks weddings.

We closed down the festivities with Joe and Staci dancing  in the middle of our circle and sent them on their way to a romantic honeymoon.

Joe and Staci had a chance to book many different Crystal Lake DJs and Video, but they trusted Ameritune with their most important day because we are professionals, in business since 1983.
