A Rockin FUN Sunday Wedding Reception at the Sherwood Inn, Skaneateles, NY

On Sunday, 8/25, I had the pleasure of providing DJ Services for the Skaneateles Wedding of Eric and Sarah Nalbach. Eric and Sarah are from the Buffalo area, but tied the know and celebrated their reception at the Sherwood in in Skaneateles, NY. The Sherwood is a favorite venue for me, as Nadine Duchene, the site coordinator, is an absolute pleasure and a total pro to work with. Eric and Sarah, being in their late 30's, decided they'd like to forego most of the formalities and pomp & circumstance of the more traditional reception events, and instead have a touch of formality, but mostly a fun cocktail and dinner party. The shared with me, that they weren't even considering a DJ in their initial planning. By the end of their wedding reception, Eric shared with me what a mistake that would have been. In their Select Receptions Client Tools account, they picked a ton of great cocktail and dinner music, as they didn't really expect dancing. 

After an elegant Cocktail hour and Dinner, we catered to some of the older guests (who would likely leave earliest) with some classic slow-songs.

After enjoying some oldies and slow songs, as expected, many older guests trickled out to head home early (it's Sunday after-all). 

It wasn't long before Eric and Sarah's friends were jamming the dance-floor...

One of Eric's long-time friends told me what a club kid Eric was in the early 90's. In no time flat The Sherwood was rocking to classic club tunes and throwback early 90's freestyle music and Old School Hip Hop. 

Some of the top classic club songs of the night inlcuded: 

* Montel Jordan - This Is How We Do It

* Salt N Pepa - Shoop

* Reel to Reel - I Like To Move It

* Wreckx-N-Effect - Rumpshaker

* Crystal Waters - 100% Pure Love

* Naughty by Nature - O.P.P.

* Snap - I've Got The Power

And many, many more classic bangers. 

Peppered in with some Disco Inferno and Old School Michael Jackson, the Eric and Sarah and friends were having a ball, and asked me to stay an additional hour so the party could go on. Unfortunately, because the rooms above the West Porch of the Sherwood were rented to other guests, the music had to stop as scheduled. We ending it with a bang, and received many compliments from all. 

What a fun Sunday wedding! Thanks again Eric and Sarah for the great memories. It was an honor to be a part of your big day. 

Best Wishes, 

Kirk Rothrum
