There are some things you just can’t control on your wedding day. Probably the biggest is the weather. In Western PA, you never know if you’re going to get a heat wave or a downpour. All you can do is accept what comes and pray for the best. The weather didn’t seem like it was on our side while I was the DJ for Amy Stausbaugh and Josh Friday at their wedding ceremony and reception at the Alpine Room in Enon Valley, PA.
The rain was extremlely heavy while everyone was getting ready for the ceremony, but Amy’s attitude was upbeat and positive. She told me “they say a little rain is good luck, so it looks like we’re having TONS of luck today!” About an hour before the ceremony began, the clouds parted and even a little sun shown down. Perfect for Amy’s entrance on horse drawn carriage!
Amy made it clear that they wanted their night to be fun and full of all types of music. Throughout the day we covered everything from classical, country, rock, oldies, pop, and dance.
Their reception was prepared to be sure everyone could relax and have a great time. A huge cookie table and photo booth awaited their guests as they arrived for cocktail hour. After the grand entrance the newlyweds had a very touching and sweet first dance.
After dinner Amy danced with her father. I just love this picture.
Finally it was time to open up the dance floor and celebrate!
I love that Amy and Josh didn’t let the potentially bad weather worry them, and instead made sure that their day would be fantastic no matter what. They are now off to a well earned honeymoon in Hawaii where I’m sure they’ll find many ways to enjoy paradise, regardless of the forecast..
