Ladies and Gentlemen, I Give You The Newlyweds!

Tori Brovet and Rich Izzo wanted a night that was them. Meaning non traditional, intimate, fun, and ideal to their taste. The setting was The Swedish American Museum Center, located at Clark and Foster, in Andersonville. I played Brian Eno as the wedding party, including Rich, walked down the isle and transitioned to Michael Kamen's "Plasir d'amour", a spiritual piece, as Tori walked down. For the recessional, I played "The Newlywed Game" theme song. This was their way ending the wedding ceremony with a classic, fun song. It was a hit! I was assisted by Steve Fabro (photographer, editor, and apprentice dj), the photographer was Doug McGoldrick, and the caterer was the Hearty Boys (whom fig has worked with many times). Some of the dance highlights included Rich's favorite song "One" by U2, and "The Time Warp" from the Rocky Horror Picture Show followed up by "Rock Lobster" by the B52's. Tori and Rich had many great moments on the dance floor together. The gig was a big success. I did a great job creating an everlasting memory for the newlyweds. Congratulations to Tori and Rich!
