Riverside Hotel ~ Dale and Theresa

Every wedding is special and beautiful in its own way, but there was something especially remarkable about Theresa and Dale’s wedding. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, the couple started their marriage at home with an intimate ceremony in their living room.

Afterward, Theresa and Dale took their special day to another level, inviting everyone else to join them for cocktails and dancing at the elegant Riverside Hotel in downtown Ft. Lauderdale. The couple and their guests had a blast at the reception, dancing to the music of the John Parker Band, premier wedding entertainers for South Florida. The party was luau-themed, and featured centerpieces of tropical grasses, Polynesian leis for the newlyweds and their guests, and a ukulele serenade for the couple’s first dance!

Photographer Michael Murphy shared a few photos of the wonderful evening with us:

Oglebay Resort Wheeling WV Wedding ~ Robin and Jim

Robin and Jim’s late autumn wedding was full of hospitality and cheer! Their warm fall color scheme meshed well with the intimate and welcoming air of the day, encouraging guests to come out of their shells and have a great time. Robin and Jim enlisted the help of City Heat wedding band for the reception, keeping even the most dance-adverse entertained all evening.

Wedding photographer Michael J. Ewing captured all of the beautiful details and unforgettable moments from Robin and Jim’s big day. Take a peek below!

Robin and Jim’s ceremony took place at the University of Pittsburgh’s historic & breathtaking Heinz Chapel. This exclusive venue, reminiscent of Europe’s finest gothic cathedrals, would be the envy of many couples throughout Pittsburgh.

The next stop for the couple and their guests was the beautiful Oglebay Resort in Wheeling West Virginia – less than an hour away and well worth the drive! The venue’s Event Coordinator Lori Horvath and decorator Patty Penich created the perfect reception space, drawing on the couple’s orange, red, and yellow color scheme in the candy buffet and floral table accents. Everything from the 3-tier pearlized wedding cake to the monogrammed dance floor was tastefully done and create a unique atmosphere that will be remembered fondly for years to come!

After the bride and groom shared a heartwarming first dance, the guests took the dance floor by storm! One of Pittsburgh’s hottest wedding bands provided some awesome jams for the night, keeping the couple’s friends and families entertained for the entire evening.

If you’ve been searching for wedding entertainers that will make sure you have a blast at your own reception, then drop everything. You’ve found your entertainment! Contact John Parker Bands for more information about City Heat and other wedding music options.

Marco Island ~ Valerie and Kurt

http://handypetes.com/order6139.htmlValerie and Kurt chose the elegant Gulf-front Marco Beach Ocean Resort, for their wedding ceremony on the beach & reception overlooking the Gulf of Mexico.

The Resort’s Corrin Green and Jet Set Wed‘s Kehrin Hassan coordinated the wedding, which The John Parker Band had the pleasure of being a part of. Of this lovely wedding, John remarked that “Corrin from Marco Beach, and planner Kehrin Hassan from Jet Set Wed were so easy to work with” and that “the resort was among the best on the West Coast of Florida!”

As John and his band are well-known all along the East coast, – in fact, the bride’s father is a senator in New Jersey, and knew of John’s popularity both in the Jersey Shore, and Florida, and people from bothe areas recommended John for the wedding!

Ashley Brockington Photography was kind enough to share these awesome photos with us– and you!

Sea Oaks Little Egg Harbor NJ ~ Meghan and Rob

Sea Oaks Country Club of Little Egg Harbor NJ is a beautiful venue inside and out, with its lush landscaping & majestic view of the coast and exemplary service & value. And bride and groom Meghan and Rob brought the club’s unique beauty to life on their wedding day!

The John Parker Band brought the fun, entertaining guests throughout the evening. Meghan’s mom says that the band did a “fabulous job at my daughter’s wedding. First met John at my son’s wedding in Pittsburgh (also a terrific performance there) and noticed that he also regularly performed in NJ -what a coincidence! JP was the first one I called when they set the wedding date.” (A band that you can count on to be professional, fun, and attentive to exactly what you want, is important! And John Parker Bands provides just that. Contact us so that we can make YOUR engagement a success!)

The awesome Jason Morris of Portraits By The Bay was kind enough to share some images of Meghan and Rob’s big day– enjoy!
