Well, this isn’t your typical NC wedding report. I actually got up on this Saturday and flew to Chicago! I know the Pitmans through my aunt Linda and they booked me over a year ago for their son’s wedding in Wilmette, IL outside of the city. The location of the reception with the Michigan Shores Club. I will have to say, I have done alot of beautiful places in NC and this one rivaled alot of them. It was very old school, but gorgeous inside. It actually reminded me of an old Episcopal Church with the high ceilings and dark arched wooden beams at the ceiling. From the stage, I was looking directly out at Lake Michigan and a gorgeous, cool, breezy day. Wow. Awesome.

Jenny and Halston finally arrived after a long session of pictures and a lost limo driver. I got them all lined up and they entered the ballroom to “Down with the Sickness” by Disturbed. It was hardcore, but apparently that was the only time the groom was going to get to hear some heavy music, so the bride let him have his pick, LOL. Actually, I thought it worked out great! Their first dance came next and was “At the Beginning” by Richard Marx and Donna Lewis. I had only played this one other time, but it is a great first dance. I think the best of the special dances was when Halston danced with his mom to “She Drives Me Crazy” by the Fine Young Cannibals. Now that was a first, but it got the party started for sure!

All in all, this was a great party. I tried to get some photos for this blog post from John Dowling of Edward Fox Photographers, but I don’t think they really got what I was trying to do. Anyway, once I get something, I will edit this post and add them. Thanks to the Pitmans and the Carpenters for a great trip up to IL! It was also great to get to see some of my friends and family from Wilson there as well.
