The Wedding Of Tara & Ryan!
On March 13th, Phil Phest Events had the pleasure of providing DJ and event hosting services for Ryan and Tara’s wedding at the charming Guilford Hall Brewery. As soon as we arrived, the tantalizing aroma of food greeted us. Guilford Hall Brewery offers a unique blend of a relaxed yet upscale environment, complete with a welcoming host at the entrance. We arrived at 2:00 PM and found ample street parking, although it likely becomes scarce at night, but fortunately, the venue is equipped with valet parking.
The wedding took place on the third-floor event space, which featured beautiful original hardwood floors and exposed brick walls, all bathed in natural light from large windows. The bar staff and management were approachable and attentive, catering to the diverse tastes of the guests.
The wedding ceremony was intimate, followed by a cocktail hour and various food stations, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.
As a DJ, I usually play a few dinner songs to set the mood and prepare everyone for the dance floor. The evening kicked off with a mix of beloved classic wedding tunes and some favorite country songs, and as the night progressed, the guests really got into the EDM tracks. The highlight came when I played hits from the classic emo/rock era of the early 2000s, and everyone sang along passionately. The evening was a hit, and Ryan and Tara were incredibly thankful.
This event also marked the debut of our new DJ setup, which is integrated into a piece of furniture for a more sophisticated appearance. We invested in this upgrade to provide an exceptional experience and to distinguish ourselves in the market.
Ryan and Tara were delightful to work with. They were relaxed and had a clear vision of their wedding, which, thanks to Tara’s planning skills, turned into a truly magical event.
We collaborated with our friends at Inexpressible Moments & Events Planning, who managed all the detailed preparations and coordination. Heather, as always, was meticulous in managing the details and ensuring the event ran smoothly.
We extend our heartfelt wishes to Ryan and Tara for a lifetime of love and joy. It was an honor to be part of their special day, and we are grateful for their trust in us!
