Alicia and Derek

Alicia and Derek had a beautiful reception at Brookside Country Club. Mark and Ed were the DJ's and they kept the dance floor busy all night! They also added to the warmth and ambiance of the room with some lighting. Mark said Alicia and Derek were one of the most laid back and easy going couples he has worked with!

We received this wonderful thank you from Alicia.
"We just wanted to write a note thanking Mark, Aaron, Matt, and Ed. When Derek and I were trying to find vendors for our reception we were totally overwhelmed. The only vendor we knew we wanted to book was Beth from Artistic Imagery. When I met with her she asked if we had chosen a DJ yet and when I said we hadn’t she immediately recommended Synergetic Sounds. She gave me one of your promotional DVDs and sent me home with it. When I got home Derek and I watch the DVD and checked out the website. We immediately liked what we saw and I called the next morning to set up an appointment.

From our first meeting with Mark we were super excited to work with him. We were thinking of doing some lighting and draping but we weren't sure exactly what we wanted so he suggested that we attend the upcoming Open House. At the Open House Mark sat down with us and went over everything we wanted to do. We added up lighting, draping - to section the cocktail hour off from the ballroom, and a breakup pattern for the dance floor. We couldn’t quite decide on a color for the up lighting so Mark told us he would bring the amber and the purple and we could make a decision that day.

About two months before our wedding Derek and I decided that we wanted a short saying projected on the wall above the head table. I called Matt asking if this was possible. He said he thought it would be okay but that he would check with Aaron and to send him the quote. We went with the quote “Two Hearts, One Soul” which was also engraved into our cave server. Aaron and I emailed back and forth getting the design just perfect. Aaron was so patient and knowledgeable. I couldn’t wait to see it.

The day before the wedding I spoke to Mark and confirmed our music selections. We weren’t very picky about the music played for some of the night’s events so I just wrote DJ’s choice and let Mark pick. We also weren’t sure what song we wanted to walk in to so Mark said he would have some selections for us when we got to the reception and we could decide then.

When we arrived at the reception the draping looked amazing. It gave us the definition we wanted for dividing the two spaces. We stepped through the draping to see the room and we were speechless. It looked absolutely stunning!! The quote on the wall looked beautiful and the up lighting looked great on the wood. Mark had some great songs for us to choose from for our entrance. His selections for the events that we hadn’t picked music for were awesome and the dance floor was packed all night.

It’s been a month since our wedding and people are still telling us how beautiful it was and how much fun they had. I think a lot of this is due to the great staff you guys have there. We absolutely loved working with you guys and we wouldn’t change a thing about our day. Thanks again for everything you did!!"

Alicia and Derek, we are so glad you were please with our services and your day was everything you wanted it to be! We wish you all the best!

Thanks so much to Beth at Artistic Imagery for the images!
