Cabel Sasser got married. His wife, Nicole, gave him a little room to run on invitations and theme.
Words will not do it justice. Check out his blog post.

He doesn’t spend anytime raving about how great his DJ was, but they did some really cool things.
Letterpress printed their own invitations.
A photobooth. (old school style).

How to get a groom involved in wedding planning…
Things you should never say to a DJ
So my friend and former DJ partner Jak got this from Rusty (aka Mudkids aka Bird Men of Alcatraz) and sent it to me. Are you following me so far? good.
I haven’t DJ’d in a club for a long time, but I can see where this is coming from. Nowadays, when I sit [...]
Even a trained monkey can be a DJ!
I have seen everything now.
It’s actually pretty cool. Capuchin monkeys have been trained to put a CD in a CD player and hit play. They are actually trained to assist people with paraplegia, so they can do a lot of simple things.
So the question in my mind is simple.
What is your DJ going to do [...]
The Mystery is Solved
The bride and groom from the Best First Dance Ever have been found!
They were on Ellen today. http://ellen.warnerbros.com/2007/12/newlyweds_got_back.php
There names? Michelle and John Brubaker!
How much easier would this have been if the MC had said. “John and Michelle’s first Dance” or “Mr. and Mrs. Brubaker’s first dance”?
Not that hard… Much easier to remember in a once [...]
Best First Dance Ever

The first dance mis-direction magic.
With the right tools, putting together the music is pretty simple, but doing it poorly will ruin it for everyone who comes after you. Get a good [...]

I have spent a considerable amount of time and effort trying to improve professionalism in this business. Sadly, it’s [...]
How did your engagement go?
This is a great one. The artistic Wedding Proposal
I have seen other forced perspective installations before. I would even go so far as to say I have seen better.
Knowing the audience is critical to success.
Right audience, Right Message… Magic
I always ask my clients how they got engaged. A lot of times it is pretty central [...]
The Best Wedding Reception Ever!
A friend of mine, Peter Merry, wrote a great new book on creating amazing wedding receptions. The book is called The Best Wedding Reception Ever!
It’s a great book. The first half is all about why you should pick a great entertainer. The second is chocked full of killer ideas that you might include in your [...]
There is only one Entertainment and we are all a part of it.
Recently, I had the opportunity to work with another entertainer.
Charles Rex of Chicago. He plays accordion and has for longer than I have been alive… Probably longer than my parents have been alive.
It was amazing to watch him work. He was an absolute pro. One minute he was getting ready to get setup. The next [...]
Toasting Wedding Toasts
Apparently, I am still on the “do unto others” soap box. You may not be planning a “crashed” wedding, but you have probably selected a best man and maid of honor. The same should apply for best man and maid of honor during toasts.
So here is the pledge and promise. Yes, I will coach the [...]
