Natalie & Gilles

On Saturday, October 7, 2006 I had the pleasure of coordinating the wedding of Natalie & Gilles.   Click here for more photos.

The wedding ceremony and reception were held at the  Officer's Club in Fort Mason, San Francisco.  This was a really great wedding.  Natalie is Chinese and Gilles is French.  We had a really great theme going here.  We honored the Chinese tradition by using red linens for the tables, a traditional silk cloth served as the guest sign in, Chinese food and the bride later changed into a red Chinese dress after there ceremony.  For the French tradition we had  a traditional French wedding cake called the Croquembouche, French Food and we had an image of the Eiffel Tower projected onto the wall in the dancing room.  Wally's Swing World provided cocktail reception and dinner music and then later on for dancing we had my favorite DJ from Dennon and Doyle, Chad Grissom. 

I always recommend that my clients have a mixture of music acts for a wedding.  A string trio is great ceremony music.  I never like to use the ceremony musicians for the cocktail reception, because you want a whole differenc feel for cocktail reception.  It has to be a bit more up-beat and fun.  Then for dinner, you want something that sounds really nice in the background.  When it come's time for dancing, you want either a Band that can play all types of music or a DJ so that everyone can hear the music they love in it's original form, the way they hear it on the radio or their iPod. 

Natalie & Gille's wedding was wonderful.  They are such a great couple and have a very loving family.  I enjoyed workign with Natalie in creating a customized wedding for her and Gilles.  We had lots of fun and that is the most important thing.   Congratulations Natalie & Gilles.  May your marriage be blessed with love, luck and happiness for eternity.

Hi ,

I just wanted to say that I love your website.

As a bride-to-be on a tight budget, I recently discovered an online bridal jewelry store called GlamForLess.com.
Though their website is plain and simple, I found some great deals on jewelry sets for me and my bridesmaids.

I think other readers on a tight budget may also find GlamForLess.com to be helpful.
You may want to check them out at http://www.glamforless.com/ and inform other readers about it.

Keep up the good work.

Best regards,
