Fig Mod Deal Strikes Again: Jessica and David

Jessica and David, hired fig this August to supply their mod deal expertise for their wedding at the River East Art Center. The event was classy, unique, elegant, and personal.

SOUND: I (Megan Taylor) was the lead DJ of the event. I loved how Jessica and David created a day of elegance and still kept their individual style present in the event. I began the day with the ceremony, playing cute and soft love songs from cool indie rock albums (Feist, Wilco, Iron and Wine, Magnetic Fields, Flaming Lips, Cat Power, Ryan Adams... ) as guests arrived. As they entered the River East Art Center the went into a room of white fabric designed by the fabulous Pavel of Kehoe. Then as they walked down the aisle I played the perfect set of Ryan Adams "It Takes Two", "End of the Line" Travelling Wilburys, and then as Jessica entered I played "Story" by Brandi Carlile. It was so perfect... Then the ceremony proceeded as we amplified the rabbi with a wireless microphone. The vows, kiss, and then the exit to "Jessica" by the Allman brohters.
I then made up a killer playsit with bossa nova and reggea music for upstairs. As people entered downstairs into dinner a band called Tributosaurus took over playing a lot of rock from the 60's and 70's, the singer rocked with a voice exact to Van Morrison. This was my first time doing band breaks... and can I say we (my assistant Matt Carlson and I) rocked. I created a dance floor so the band could take over, then did sets of disco/80's to keep the dancing alive.. by the end of the band they were begging for more. I threw in "You Shook Me All Night Long" and everyone went crazy, into "Walk this Way" which created a dance circle that brought out moves I haven't seen in 10 years. This event was awesome, I went staight to current music, played JT, Timbaland, Nelly Furtado.... the party was a total success.
