AfWPi Mixer “A Very Merry UnBirthday” at Winchester Country Club

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Last Tuesday we had the opportunity to DJ, MC and provide ambience lighting service for a mixer for Associations for Wedding Professionals Int. (AfWPi) at Winchester Country Club in Meadow Vista. Darcie Carrier, the wedding Coordinator at Winchester in such a sweetheart! She works sooo hard and is one of the best for sure!! The theme: “A Very Merry UnBirthday” from Alice in Wonderland. We had a lot of fun with the lighting design. She wanted lots of colors! It was fun and unique, not something you may see at a wedding but LOTS of FUN! We also projected a mini slideshow of some pictures from the tea party from the “Alice in Wonderland” movie on the ceiling. Here’s some picture of the room thanks to Jeff Sharpe with Sharpe Photographers, thanks for bringing your camera Jeff. We are sure you never leave home without it.

We had few awesome featured vendors participating. We of course had the beautiful Winchester Country Club, Shelley with Pizzazz Event Planning (her table was so pretty), Liza with Golden Gourmet (for all of our yummy food) and the oh so DELICIOUS Rebecca with Sweet Cakes by Rebecca. We didn’t know Rebecca before the “Let Them Eat Cake Event” but she has been added to our preferred vendor list! We just love her. She had a beautiful table (which we are not surprised since she won Best Table Presentation at LTECE), brought a fabulous “UnBirthday” Cake for the centerpiece and TONS of mini cupcakes for our tea party table for us to enjoy. I LOVE SUGAR. Liza provided the food, she had 4 yummy stations FULL of food. The soup we drank out of mini tea cups which fit the theme perfectly. Here’s a highlight video of the night provided by the talented Phil with Sheffield Multimedia, thanks Phil!

Why do we attend these mixers or participate? They give us so many advantages but one of the best ones is getting to know all our wedding professional friends. We get to network with the best of the best. We learn about all the different and unique things we all offer, we can refer QUALITY PROFESSIONALS and it helps us better ourselves and our companies for our clients! We want to give you all that we can and be the very best we can be here at Sound Image Entertainment!! Here is a picture of some DJ friends from the mixer, thanks Greg for the photo:

So Tuesday March 3, we did one of the monthly mixers for the Association for Wedding Professionals Int. at the Vizcaya Pavilion and Mansion. It was a lot of fun, it was a St. Patrick Day theme. Elizabeth, Sandi and Kathy all there are amazing to work with and made an awesome mixer. Everything was green and full of fun St. Patrick Day touches. It was called St. Paddy’s Day at the Vizcaya, We are Sham-rocking the house! I was so excited about it I had to add it to the monogram we made. We also did lighting with our new lights and the room glowed GREEN. We were so glad that we were able to do this event and be a part of it. We hope to be at the Vizcaya more often. Here’s a few pics:

So Tuesday February 3 we had our Recognition Dinner for Association for Wedding Professionals Int. It was AMAZING! I first want to give Jenny with Sun City Roseville kudos for all her hard work, she was so great to work with. This was the first time we had the pleasure to work with her and she is so devoted to what she does, she puts her all in to it. She also did a dessert buffet which was amazing, I will have to add pictures when we get some! Mike Anderson with Creative Memories Entertainment was the Emcee and he did a phenomenal job. He also did all the uplighting inside. This event was so great to be a part of, it’s not often you get numerous vendors in every category to work together to pull off this large of an event. I think their were 5 of us DJ companies setting up and running the event with Mike. It was so great to be a part of it. We got to do some lighting in the entry way here’s a few pictures below. Oh and a side note I was blessed to win the Team Spirit Award, I was so surprised and grateful to be considered. I also received the associations Vice President Julias’ 82nd Airborne pin from her dad. Long story short it was for going sky diving with her, you can search the blog for the story. I was so touched and honored to receive it.

The decorators Cathy with Visual Impact Design, Shannon with Flourish, Darcie with Slip of Elegance and Jenny and her staff at Sun City Roseville made the room look outstanding! Wow, with Mike’s lighting and their decor it made the event. Phill with Sheffield Multimedia who did all the video, commercials and clips also was fantastic. He has a way with capturing your attention and keeping it, we love his work and know how hard he works too. Anyone would be lucky to book him and we promise you he would do all he could to make your video amazing, it’s so worth it. Also Jessica with Scarlet Design and Invitation Consulting did our invites, I loved them soooo much. I know this is kinda long so I will stop but we had so many wonderful vendors working this event to make it the success it was. I will for sure add pictures when I get them.
