On 11/20/2010, Brett & Monica Sankey were wed at
The Palms in Chico, CA. They had planned for their wedding to be outdoors in the peaceful, breathtaking and private venue, however, Mother Nature had different plans so the rain put “Plan B” into action!
With the ceremony having moved into the indoor pavilion, it was standing room only as Monica came down the aisle to Miranda Wong’s “Romantic Wedding March”. For her recessional, Monica chose Jason Mraz’s “Lucky”
As the bridal party was whisked off for photos by
Rhoda Fleck, who had great ideas and was awesome to work with, we opened up the photo booth to all the guests. Everyone took great delight to capture fun moments and put their photos in the memory book for Brett & Monica.
When the time came for the Grand Entrance, the Bridal Party entered to The Black Eyed Peas’ “I Gotta Feeling”. Brett & Monica entered to Michael BublĂ©’s “Everything”.
For her first dance, Monica's brother, Jake Cousineau sang and played an acoustic guitar as she and Brett danced. For her dance with her father, Monica chose Heartland's "I Loved Her First". When it was time for the cake, Monica requested “Sugar, Sugar” by The Archie’s and then we lowered the lights for OPEN DANCING! The dance lighting effects were awesome so hats off to
Dream Lighting & Sounds!
After everyone was nice and exhausted from dancing for a bit, we did the bouquet and garter toss. From the second floor, Monica tossed the bouquet to the Pat Benatar’s “Hit Me With Your Best Shot” and Brett, threw the garter to ZZ Top’s “Legs”.
For our youngsters who couldn’t join in on the bouquet and garter toss, Monica had requested a Teddy Bear Toss. She met me by the DJ Booth and she tossed a Teddy Bear to the children. For those who didn’t catch the bear, I handed out glow sticks!
We went lights out again and opened the dance floor until the night ended where our bride and groom where taken away by their limo!
Once again…Good times and Good fun!
