Holiday Happenings

It's been a busy year for Tiny Tunes. Wedding season is winding down, although this is the time of year for couples to get engaged (hint: guys, a nice engagement ring is just ONE of the presents she'd love this Christmas...) and it's not too early to book your DJ for a 2010 (or even 2011) wedding. We have several dates open next year, and would greatly love to help you create the soundtrack for your special day!

Halloween this year found us at the Masonic Temple downtown for Dave and Jeanette's wedding. The jack-o-lantern centerpieces, and the fall decor, highlighted a picture perfect ceremony and reception. Great food from Club Soda....and a high energy crowd (many in costume) that danced until the last song was over! Thanks to Dave and Jeanette, and their families, for letting me be a part of their special day!

Lastly, (speaking of Halloween weddings)I wanted to share with you a story I found recently. I don't listen to the Dr. Laura show, but this was passed along to me from her blog, and I thought it was a great story about how this bride turned a bad day, into a great one....

The Opposite of Bridezilla

Six days before Teanne Harris of Chicago was to walk down the aisle in a glorious white gown, her fiance called off the nuptials.
When Harris and her mom went to the catering hall to cancel the reception, they were told that their deposit was nonrefundable.
Now, between being dumped at the altar and not getting her money back, I would expect a screaming meemee, locking herself in the bathroom, ripping up every picture of the two of them, screaming to all her friends, getting drunk, not showering - you know, the usual melodrama.
Not Ms. Harris! Leaving the catering hall, she noticed the Asbury Court Retirement Community across the street. So, instead of letting her Halloween-themed wedding reception go to waste, she decided to move the party to the retirement home, where more than 300 residents attended the party.
Harris had her bridal bouquet placed in the retirement home’s chapel.
She also went on the Hawaii trip anyway…the trip that was meant to be her honeymoon.
All I can say about this story is that she is a magnificent, spiritual human being, and the joker who left her did her a favor. I’m sure she’ll find a real man worthy of her mature and generous spirit.

I would have been proud to work with someone like Ms. Harris...and hope she finds happiness in everything she does.

Looking forward to working with you, too, for your special day. Give me a call at 1-888-629-0595, and let's start planning your perfect party! Happy Thanksgiving!
