Emory & Nic’s Wedding at Raleigh Union Station

Em & Nic’s Wedding by Arika Jordan Photography

 

The beautiful and unique wedding of Em & Nic was at Raleigh Union Station and it was spectacular!    You know it is going to be a fun night when the couple has a basket of tequila shots at the ceremony.  Very few people even know they do weddings at Raleigh Union Station so it is a true hidden gem in Raleigh. We were lucky enough to work with some amazing wedding vendors who absolutely crushed it for the wedding clients.  Check out the amazing photos below from our new bestie Arika Jordan who captured the day perfectly.  Thanks to Nic & Em for letting us be a part of your wedding day!

Katie & Ian by Caroline Lima Photography

Katie & Ian are two very worldy people and we got to DJ for their wedding at Fearrington Barn wedding venue in Pittsboro, NC.  Most of the guests at Katie & Ian’s wedding actually came from either out of the country or out of the state and Katie and Ian themselves were headed back to London right after the wedding. We had an all-star group of wedding vendors that really helped make the day easy for the newlyweds. The Barn at Fearrington is one of the most timeless wedding venues in the Triangle area of North Carolina and has the classic barn feel but the amenities of a 4-star restaurant (some of the best wedding dining you could ever experience!).  Just a few feet behind the barn were the famous Beltie (or belted) cows and a picturesque silo and field.  Thank you to Katie & Ian for the amazing night celebrating with you and your family and friends.  It was amazing…check out Blueberry Creative and the photos from Caroline Lima Photography below!

Meg & Jason’s Touch of Greek Wedding at The Cotton Room in Durham, NC

MegJason_3802

 

Meg & Jason were married and had their wedding reception at The Cotton Room in the fall of 2014.  Jason and his family are Greek so of course we had to have some traditional Greek music and dancing!  This one started off a little formal but quickly turned into one of the craziest dancing crowds that we have seen.  We helped the bride and groom plan everything from Texas via Skype and e-mail where they live today.  There was some sort of crazy history of Jason dancing to ‘Billie Jean’ and they told DO NOT play it unless requested by the bride and groom and sure enough at about 11 pm we got the ‘ok’ (photos below!).  Thanks for being our clients Meg & Jason and best wishes. We will never forget your wedding!

Here is some of the Greek music that we played:

  • Aravod – Kalamatiano
  • Trio Hellenque – Kalamatiano
  • Michael Hartophilis & His Orcehstara – Kalamatiano 
  • Haralabos Garganourakis – Pentozalis

Venue The Cotton Room
