We have booked our wedding officiant to conduct our wedding ceremony, Rev. Georgiana Johnson. She will be performing a brief civil wedding ceremony which will include a rose exchanging ceremony. As promised, we will have appetizers and drinks available shortly before and after our ceremony to kick off the festivities! Ceremony is scheduled for 5pm sharp, so please be on time! Wedding party pictures will be conducted beforehand, so afterward we will proceed into a cocktail hour before sitting down for dinner at 6:30pm. It’s all coming together, only 9 more weeks to go! Reminder - if you haven’t sent back your invitation reply card, please do soon!
We booked our caterer, good ole Sonny’s BBQ! What can we say, we love us some Sonny’s, and there’s nothing like getting all gussied up and eating some ribs haha! On the buffet menu will be Pulled Pork, Chicken, St. Louis Cut Ribs, Mac n Cheese, Baked Potatoes, Side Salad, Garlic Bread, and French Bread. Bring your appetite, because there is sure to be a LOT to eat! Mmm gotta love that Sonny’s Sweet Sauce…
We booked our wedding cake, or cakes we should should say! We are going with a custom cupcake tower from“‘Sweet” in Waterford Lakes.

We finally decided on the rings this past weekend…titanium for me, and Sue gets the bling of course… only 3 months to go and we got a lot left to do…
Our ceremony and reception will be held in Winter Park, FL at the Rachel D. Murrah Civic Center. The ceremony will be in the outdoor courtyard and the reception will be in the adjacent grand ballroom.
It’s official! We booked the one and only DJ Mark V aka Mark Vijandre to DJ and MC the reception! He will be spinning the best in top 40, hip hop, reggae, 80’s, and a little freestyle and breaks for good measure! We can’t wait, this is shaping up to be one hell of a party!!! Sorry to all the traditionalists, but we set in stone absolutely no chicken slides or electric dances of the sort! Email Sue and I for any requests, as we need to get these in to Mark early.For more on DJ Mark V, check him out on myspace, facebook, and listen to samples of his hot mixes on ILike:
