Is it a pep rally, is it a wedding? Or is it a pep rally for a wedding? That is the question, as we say Congratulations to the happy couple, Scott & Laura Wagner, who exchanged vows and said "I do", on 7/29/17, and kicked off the "the game of their new life together" (see what I did there - Lol) at the "Inn at Michigan League" hall, on the campus of U of M! Outside of "chants" for our lovely Bride/Groom, you could hear chants of "Go Blue" not far behind throughout the night!!! As you entered the building on this beautiful day, you could feel the energy for this party ramping up, as the anticipation for our guests of honor was drawing near! Your first stop before entering the ballroom, was to leave your "imprint", or should I say "thumb/leaf print" on Scott & Laura's "Wedding Tree" picture, that would remind them for many years to come, of all their guests who celebrated with them on this special day! As you entered the ballroom, as I said, electricity was in the air, no doubt! The ballroom was full of excitement, as the smiles were abounding! Once our Bride/Groom were done with taking family pictures in the courtyard, the wait was over! It was time for the Grand Entrance! And what an entrance it was! The Bridal party was in pure party form, as they showed off their best dance moves, and made their way in via "The Final Countdown", by Europe, followed by our guests of honor, who graced the hall coming into, "Crazy in Love", by Beyoncé, as they walked by their guests towards the cake table, feeling the love as the hall erupted with applause! Scott & Laura then settled in at the head table alongside their Bridal party, and after I welcomed everyone into the hall, the great toasts commenced! First by Scott's dad, Mark, who put everyone at ease, and had everyone laughing, as he told stories of Scott growing up, always the shy kid in school, who according to Mark & Kim, were worried that Scott wouldn't ever date, or "get the girl"! Lol. And of course, Scott showed mom and dad who prevailed in the end, with the woman of his dreams! Of course, three more great toasts were made by Sarah (Matron of Honor), Alex (Best Man), and to round it off, Laura's dad, followed by a great dinner! After Scott & Laura made their rounds talking to all of their guests, they then opened up the dance floor with their Bride/Groom dance with a classic, "Can't Help Falling in Love", by Elvis, and the dancing began! Shortly thereafter, Laura and her dad, Bill, shared a great dance, "My Girl", by the Temptations, followed by Scott and his mom Kim, who danced to another great heartfelt song, appropriately titled, "A Mother's Prayer", by Bonnie Barbey! From there, Scott tapped into his "inner fun" self, and took the garter off to "Pony", by Ginuine, and Laura tossed her bouquet to all the single ladies, followed by Scott tossing the garter to all the rowdy single men! Lol. The dancing was crazy good all night long, and the fun never stopped until the lights came up! Congratulations again Scott & Laura, and Thank You for letting us be a part of your special day, and choosing us to entertain for your family and friends! We had a blast!!! All the best! Go Blue! Enjoy the pics!
