Reception Entertainment Director

The facility that you are having your wedding at is beautiful. The thing is - once it gets dark, it takes on a whole other look. It's kind of dark and not really romantic. White holiday lights on the fake ficus trees just don't cut it. What can you do? Candle light is great, but it only goes so far in setting the mode. Dance floor lighting is one way to bring a new feel to a facility, but if you're not into making your wedding look like a night club, then maybe a more theatrical feel to the lighting is in order. Don't forget to illuminate your cake or lighting behind your Sweetheart of Head Table - it'll enhance your pictures and your photographer will capture better pictures. This is possible through the magic of LED driven lighting effects. Ask us about the many lighting possibilities.   Atmosphere Productions LLC  is a CT Wedding DJ, providing professional mobile ...

It is a Western custom for a newly married couple to exchange a kiss at the conclusion of their wedding ceremony. Some Christians hold the belief that the kiss symbolizes the exchange of souls between the bride and the groom, fulfilling the scripture that “the two shall become one flesh.” However, some trace the tradition to an ancient Roman tradition, whereby the exchange of a kiss signified the completion of a contract.   Although the kiss is not a formal requirement of the ceremony, most regard the gesture as a joyful start of the marriage. The most traditional way guests entice the new couple to kiss is by clinking their glasses. An ancient Christian tradition explains that the clinking sound scares the devil away and the couple kisses in his absence.    Another tradition is to ring bells placed at the tables by the wedding party. A ring of the bell signals the bride and groom to kiss. Today, most people uphold these traditions as a fun excuse to get ...

Be true to yourself Don't choose a hairstyle that makes you feel not yourself. Brides often get pressured into certain styles because of "tradition". If a particular style makes you feel uneasy, don't choose it. It does not matter that your mother, best friend or hairstylist like it - what really matters is YOU.  Develop a clear idea Before going to the stylist, try to develop a good idea of what type of hairstyle you would like. Cut out the pictures of your favorite hairstyles from magazines and bring them to the stylist. If you can't find any pictures, be prepared to describe exactly what you want.   Do a practice run Try out the hairstyle in advance, before your wedding day. Schedule the "practice run" with your stylist. If the hairstyle that you envisioned does not look as good on you as you had hoped, you'll be glad you found that out before the big day!   Is it c...

Many of today's couples are not aware of the history behind some wedding traditions and symbols. Some even are derived from old English traditions and superstitions.  The carrying of flowers by the bride has its roots in ancient times when it was believed that strong smelling herbs and spices would ward off and drive away evil spirits, bad luck and ill health. The wedding veil hides the brides beauty and wards off evil spirits. Another explanation is that during the times of arranged marriages the brides face would be covered until the groom had committed to the marriage.  Tears from the bride or a child during the wedding service is considered lucky.  Wedding gifts are bought by the guests have replaced the custom of bringing fruits that used to encourage fertility.
