Trick or Treat for Corporate
Today was a nice day and a little bit of a change. I was called by an existing corporate client, ViaSat up in Carlsbad (I’ve done their big holiday parties in the past – 600+ people), to provide to music and DJ services for their Halloween event. The first half was a costume contest for the employees that I provided music and announcements. The second half was for the families as they were allowed to bring their children and families back to the corporate grounds and have...

I had the opportunity to work with a very special nonprofit organization, Just Like My Child in late October for their annual fundraising gala. The event was held at the magnificent Rancho Santa Fe home of John Asaraf.

It turned out to be a gorgeous evening and the longer than usual wedding day of 8 hours, ended up flying by! Large Supply We had quite a large supply again (seems...
Read MoreBrad and Kristine at The Crossings
Brad and Christine had their combined wedding ceremony and reception at the popular Crossings Resort up in Carlsbad. It was another potentially rainy October day, but the weather held off and provided a unique misty and overcast ceremony. We had the option to move the ceremony indoors, but Kristine insisted that stay outside and it paid off. It was a great party from beginning to end! The dinner reception inside was just as gorgeous or we provided up lighting and a custom Gobo Monogram on the...
