Civic Center Wedding - OKC - Hall Of Mirrors
Our sister company in Oklahoma City was out and about in OKC this weekend. The civic center wedding was a great wedding. Jeff and Moran were both super clients. We met with them last April to plan this wedding and everyone was great. Abbey Road catering was super easy to work with and from what we were told the food was great! The Civic center was very easy as well and the staff was great. Morgan designed the cakes herself and did a great job, not sure who did the cake but it looked very nice!
Here is the profile for the event:
280 guests -
20+ Tables
280+ Chair covers
5-6 candles on each table - lit
Centerpieces on each table
18 uplights were used around the room to highlight the colors
4 lights were used on the stage computer controlled to add some extra excitement.
Sound was provided to fill the room but we could have used a little more but wasn't in the budget for the client. The grand entrance was to How Sweet It Is To be Loved by You - Michael Buble , The first dance was fun and upbeat to michael buble - everything. The hosts gave a welcome(brides dad) , no formal toasts were given, cake cutting and dancing! The sorority sisters did the special circle dance followed by the house rap song. After that the dancing ensued with the bride being given the VIP treatment to dancing queen by all the girls at the party. Jeff stepped it up to dance to some Vanilla ice with his guys and the dance floor was non-stop until 11pm when they made their grand exit outside.

Tulsa Garden Center Wedding
Recently we did a wedding at the Tulsa Garden center in Tulsa - We provided some lighting outside as its rather dark for people enjoying some fresh air...needless to say the garden center loved it as well as the clients. It really turned the venue into something unique...we also saw many people slowing down on the street to see what was going on!

We worked with Linda and Ryan on their wedding for just under two weeks! They had booked a DJ company that canceled on them and left them high and dry. When they called our office we immediately went into action to help them plan this epic wedding. The German American center was decked out from front and back with a very nice layout (see photos below)....they also worked with some great vendors to make it an evening that will not be forgotten by most. Dancing into the night was the conclusion of this day and the bride and groom left in the Tulsa Trolly into maritial bliss.

Are all wedding DJ's created the same?? A open letter to wedding vendors in Tulsa
WHAT DO YOU REALLY WANT or WHAT ARE YOU REALLY GOING TO GET BY BOOKING THE CHEAPEST DJ YOU CAN FIND? Pictures are worth 1000+ words.
Good afternoon,
As wedding vendors, we strive to give our clients our all, we strive to give them the best for their special day. But some couples really do need a little hand holding to bring the entire picture to light. They have the best food, the best flowers, the best photography, the best video, the best chair covers...but skimp on the entertainment...it can really put a damper on all those "best" services even though you as vendors did you best.
If the customers guests leave after an hour, half the food is left and there are no photos to be taken of people dancing...what do you think her overall view of her wedding reception will be.....(insert answer here).....
While most clients put about 1% of their entire budget into entertainment. Some put much less thought that that.
Our clients that book with TulsaWeddingDJ.Com know that they are getting the best of the best in Tulsa and Oklahoma, we deliver a knockout punch at the reception and ensure that everyone goes away happy.
<--an actual picture of TulsaWeddingDJ.Com in action...
As a wedding DJ/Entertainer/Entertainment director our jobs are to ensure that all aspects of the evening are flawless, we do so much more than just play music...we entertain, relax and ensure the client is happy when the clock strikes midnight....as wedding vendors you should also ensure that your client knows what options are out there. We always advise clients to meet with at least 2-3 DJ companies when thinking about booking one. Let them see the styles and compare apples to apples...as weddings vendors it only makes us better and strive to make each wedding unique and special.
We would be happy to talk with your clients so they can avoid having a wedding DJ nightmare....
Best regards,
Zach Downing

Wedding: 04/26/2008
I cannot say enough nice things about working with Tulsa Wedding DJ.Com. Zach was both very professional and personable. He was flexible with meeting times, which was wonderful since my husband and I live in Austin and were coming home for random weekends to plan the wedding. He sat down with us and went over all the details we could think of. We never felt rushed for time. He was extremely organized, and knowledgeable about music, mood-setting, and what we could do to make our wedding fun and memorable.
The reception went by very smoothly. Zach guided the evening's events with charisma and enthusiasm. The guest had a great time- the dance floor was always in use- and he was able to keep the energy in the tent up- especially during the garter toss!
Zach also did our lighting for the tent. It cost approximately what it would have cost to rent street lamps and chandeliers, but instead of boring yellow light, this lighting was creative and really added a unique flair to our reception. To me, lighting really helps set a mood. We had the low-end of what he could provide (because of our budget restrictions), but ieven that really made a difference. If you are looking for creative lighting talk to Zach- I am willing to bet he could provide it or would figure out a way to make it possible.
The service before and during the wedding was wonderful, but it is really the service after the wedding the made me realize how committed to his clients Zach is. We have been having problems with one of our vendors, and Zach has been helpful in getting us information and numbers we can contact to help us out. This is above and beyond what was in our contract.
Please do not be skeptical if this all sounds too flowery. We really did have an exceptional experience with this vendor. I highly recommend at least looking in to TulsaWeddingDJ.Com and setting up a meeting. Then you could begin to understand why we were so impressed.

What a great wedding and DJ JOE said that the guests had a great time and did not want to stop dancing!
Congratulations to Crystal and Aaron Dugger! This wedding was at the Bernson Community Center in downtown Tulsa. I stopped in before the event with DJ Paul and they had a great layout- See the picture below of our great DJ Paul! He kept the event rocking from what I heard from the photobooth guy! We brought in some extra sound, this is a BIG venue and needs more sound than the "average DJ" would bring in for you.
DJ PAUL -
Congratulations to Craig and Susan Niles! Nicole at five oaks said that DJ RANDY did a great job...the ceremony was beautiful and the reception rocked! We even had grandma on the dancfloor dancing the night away!!
Congratulations to Ian and Courtney Graham! - DJ ZACH (Me!) did a great job if I do say so myself! This was a large wedding with 350 Guests, seated dinner at the Philbrook museum of art. I worked in conjuntion with "The wavetones"band to act as the Emcee for the evening, I also provided ceremony microphones and music for 350 guests outside. A wireless speaker was used for coctail hour on the terrace and I also greeted guests as they arrived for salads and dinner. The bride and groom as well as the bridal party were greeted as they entered the room with a tune from the wavetones. After a great toast from the best man, maid of honor and of course the brides father..the cake was cut..and the dancing began. I played between breaks for the band and kept the night rolling until Ian and courtney were sent off in grand style out the front door to a shower of rose petals....Congratulations again to all our great brides!
Coming up next weekend..another busy July wedding weekend at TulsaWeddingDJ.Com
