Nancy and Joe's military style wedding took place at the  Hartford Marriott Hotel .  The onsite Ceremony was coordinated beautifully by Elizabeth and her staff from the hotel.  Atmosphere Productions provided Ceremony sound and microphones with Rev. Dr. Robert Henderson officiating. Traditional Jazz sprinkled with Big Band Standards was the centerpiece of Nancy and Joe's Dinner Music but selected a more club and dance music mixture for after dinner dancing.  This made it easy for us to pack the dance floor all evening long and keep Nancy and Joe on the dance floor throughout. Once again, Joe, we THANK YOU for your service to this country.
