and that's what it's all about

Saturday, June 17th was the wedding of Noelle and Aaron and was held at DeCarlos in Warren. Noelle's great uncle wrote was is probably one of the most famous songs of all time: "The Hokey Pokey" One really fun family member had this piece of paper that he had written "And That's What It's All About" on and he was taking pics of every single family member with this sign. Although entertained, I was confused. Until the time finally came to actually play the "Hokey Pokey" and I heard the words and then it was like "ooohhhhh i get it....hahhahaha!" Anyways, the bridal party wore cool hats and they proved to be an interesting and entertaining bunch of folks. They were really big on creating somewhat coordinated dance moves to random songs such as Thomas Dolby "Hyperactive" and Erazor "One Night In Bangkok", which was totally hillarous to watch. I guess it must be in their blood or something..hahaha! Really fun people! (NOTE TO EX-WEDDING DJ DUDE WHO TOOK MY PIC WITH SIGN - PLEASE EMAIL TO PLATINUMMIX@YAHOO.COM THANKS!)



DJ Salsa Sal was actually originally scheduled to work the hoky pokey wedding, but we switched around and he did one of the other weddings that night - Sarah & Jose at Burton Manor in Livonia. I hate switching DJs around last minute, but after I talked to the bride - Sarah, and she told me she wanted all latin music at dinner, I thought maybe it would work out better for them if Sal dee-jayed instead of me. Sal specializes in Latin music. He has a huge collection of salsa, merengue, reggeaton, etc and speaks spanish fluently. It really seemed as if he would be the better fit. Sal said everything went smooth, but what was surprising was they actually got into the Yugoslavin music that was played more than anything else. I'm glad to hear it worked out well! Congrats to Sarah & Jose!

Also congratulations to Jennifer and Aaron and Karen and Tom who were married last week as well.

I've been keeping busy with graduation parties this week: Congratulations to the class of 2006!
