A Wedding Day of Love and Fun at Mirbeau Inn, Skaneateles, NY

This past Saturday, June 15, 2013, we had the distinct honor of providing ceremony and reception DJ services for the wedding of Janet and Khan Tran. I was assisted by a DJ and friend who I've known for more than 25 years, John Parolin. The wedding was held at one of Syracuse's most beautiful wedding venues, Mirbeau Inn & Spa Resort in Skaneateles NY. Mirbeau's event coordinators, Catherine Sinclair and Nina Vitale, are true professionals with attention to detail. We worked together to ensure the entire evening unfolded exactly according to Janet and Khans wishes.

It began with a picture perfect ceremony on the bridge in the Monet Gardens. We used our low profile ceremony system which blended in nicely, and provided beautiful string music and amplified their vows so all of their friends and family could share in the experience.

After a short and sweet ceremony, guests made their way to a large tented deck on the east side of the garden.  After cocktails, I coordinated the grand entrance and had the honor of welcoming everyone, and acknowledging the many guests who travel great distances to celebrate with Janet and Khan. We played an eclectic mix of standards and music requested by Janet and Khan throughout cocktail hour and dinner.

After dinner and desert, the dance-floor opened with a BANG. We played some of Janet and Khan's favorites, as well as guest requests. 

The top 5 songs of the night were: 1. Don Omar - Danza Kuduro, 2. Iconipop - I Love It, 3. Mackelmore  - Can't Hold Us, 4. Brittney Spears & Will.I.Am - Scream & Shout, 5. Psy - Gangnam Style.

Friends and family packed the dance-floor all night long, and though I'm not a photographer, I was able to get a couple great pics of the fun. I always try to get at least a few, even if only for the blog. A picture speaks 1000 words. 




The evening ended with a sparkler send-off, with guests forming a tunnel to Janet and Khan's Mirbeau cottage. 

Everyone had an absolute ball, and we received many compliments. Janet and Khan were a lot of fun to work with. I wish I could work with them every week, as they were my ideal client. An elegant, classy cocktail and dinner party, that unfolded into a night FUN and laughter.


My thanks to Janet and Khan Tran. It was an honor to help shape your wedding day.
Best wishes for a lifetime of happiness together.

Sincerely,
Kirk Rothrum
