Oregon presently has only one member of the W.E.D. Guild, but I’m proud to say that there will soon be more!!! [...]
Do not let this happen to you!!!
November 30th, 2010I just stumbled on to this link… my heart is aching for the bride and groom who endured this. Hire a professional… a professional will take care of you even if the stuff hits the fan! She should have gotten much more than $3000. DJ from Hell goes to court

October 12th, 2010Hey, I love sweet things, so I mean no disrespect. But how much money do you suppose this cost? And how much impact will it have on the couples’ enjoyment of their wedding day? Or for their guests? If you’re planning a wedding on a budget, you have got to prioritize!!!
Is it vacation time, yet?

June 26th, 2010Peter & Arwen got married yesterday on what has to have been the most beautiful day yet this year. I haven’t blogged before about my wedding clients, but I just can’t help but share about these two. Almost all of my clients work with me for many months prior to their weddings… six months is [...]
What’s wrong with “the bride and groom”?
June 16th, 2010Have you ever been to a wedding in Oregon, or anywhere for that matter, where it literally seemed that the DJ/MC thought the names of the couple were “the bride and groom”? I don’t know about you, but this irritates me to no end. What is says is: this DJ has ZERO emotional connection to [...]
