Jemily Hord: Live at the Palmer

Jemily Hord (Jonathan Hood & Emily Hard) deejay'd Mira and David's wedding at the Palmer House on Saturday. Mira is the Catering Manager at the Palmer House. A cool thing about the wedding is that one of the guests was also one of our clients, and she didn't know it until she got there. It also just so happened that Emily was the dj on her wedding. There was a pretty cool reunion when Emily and her saw each other.

Overall, the wedding was awesome! We ran into a few snags with timing. The ceremony started later than expected and things got backed up from there. Dancing started around 10:30 and I knew there wasn't going to be enough time for dancing. We were contracted until 12:45, but the schedule was until 12, so I talked with Mira to see if we could stay in the room longer. She has connections and made it happen. The dance floor was PACKED all night! We went until 12:30 and almost everyone stayed the whole time. Dancing circles kept happening throughout the night, where a circle would form and someone would dance inside it. At a couple points, two circles formed side by side. There were a group of people that wore napkins on their heads. Not sure what this was all about, but I assumed they were there to party. And they were! Everyone was! This party was a ton of fun!

Emily and I played off each other. I took one deck, she took the other. Emily is one of our newer djs and I got to see how much our training pays off by seeing her work. She's awesome! All thanks to me! About a year ago, she assisted me on a gig and was doing a great job playing to the crowd and I told her she should become a dj. And she did! Our deejays rock...
