Michelle Sande & Josh Schake

When: Saturday, August 7th, 2010
Where: Clarion Inn, Grand Forks, ND
1st Dance Song: "When I Look At You" by Miley Cyrus

"Hi Robert! Just thought I'd drop you a line and thank you for the great work at our wedding reception. We had a fantastic time with you. I appreciated the fact that you listened to our music preferences and catered our dance to us! The little game during dinner was hilarious, too! We will reccommend you to our friends!" -Michelle Schake

Khaki suits instead of black tuxedos seem very fortuituous on a day like today. Hot and sticky. The photographer, Brian (of Brian's Photographry), had them rotating back inside between pictures to keep from sweating too bad. Also awesome was, instead of cake, a sundae bar! A soft serve machine with toppings at the ready.

Once again I digitally edited their first dance song to shorten it up a bit, from about four minutes down to two and a half. It's something I can't recommend enough when you'll be having multiple special dances at the beginning, thus excluding guests. The reality of it is, these songs are mostly for the two people dancing, not for the guests.

I pretty noticeable mistake on my part tonight. I missed a change. Josh was supposed to dance with his mom to a certain Brad Paisley song (Oh, Love). I had it, and it was taken care of quickly, but there was still my gaffe. I had already begun bringing out wedding party to start the rest of the dance. It's the kind of mistake I pride myself on NOT making and one that will stick with me for a while even though the net result was Josh's dance with his mom started about eight seconds late.
