Keri and Chris' Wedding on October 13th, 2012

What a fun time Excel Entertainment had with this couple. From the first time I met them (and Keri's mother), we knew it be a great wedding. They chose our "Excel Live" package which features an MC, DJ, Singer, Percussionist, and Saxophonist (and myself on guitar if your lucky ;) 250 guests at the Mahwah Sheraton in Mahwah, NJ, how could it not be a great wedding.

Last minute Keri and Chris decided to add our flat screen TV package for a montage and candid photos which just brought the whole event together. Check out video...we love what do.

Not to mention the spur of the moment acoustic jam myself and the musicians took part in (there's a small clip of it in the middle of the video.

New Wedding Trend: The Bride Speaks

More and more brides are choosing to throw tradition out the window and make a wedding speech alongside her father, the groom and the best man.

We think it’s a lovely way for the bride to tell everyone how much she is enjoying her big day and how grateful she is to everyone who made the effort to attend.

If this is you but you're stumped on what to say and how to do it, here are a few tips:

• Make notes. Even if your speech is short, don’t feel that you have to memorise the key points. Referring to your notes on some cards is perfectly acceptable.


• If you want to include some humor, stick to a few funny stories of last-minute preparations and catastrophes averted by some smart thinking.  Don’t tell jokes at anyone’s expense.


• Use your speech to tell your guests how much your new husband means to you. If you feel yourself getting too emotional, look upwards.  This should reduce the likelihood of tears.


• If you’re extra romantic, turn your speech into a love poem.  If you have the inspiration but not the creativity to write one, there’s no reason why you can’t quote an existing poem if it represents how you feel.


• Make sure you thank everyone, especially those who have helped you to plan your wedding and those who’ve travelled far to spend the day with you.

When the speeches are complete, you can relax and enjoy the evening’s entertainment!  Please give us a call if you’d like to talk about how we can entertain your guests at your wedding reception.
