On February 3rd, 2008 I found out I had been selected as Bride's Choice for Wedding Wire. Only the top 3% of Vendors for any category are chosen and I am honored to be a part of this group. The honor would not have happened without my Amazing past clients support. The reviews you all posted helped make this possible. I would also like to thank the S.W.O.D.J.A. (Southwest Washington Oregon Disc Jockey Association) and especially Craig Brown, from Hi Fidelity Entertainment, for his help and guidance over the past 3 1/2 years. I would also like to thank the W.E.D. Guild (Wedding Entertainment Directors Guild) and Peter Merry for accepting my application and allowing me to become a Certified Wedding Entertainment Director. WeddingWire, the nation’s leading wedding technology company, just announced that Event Team Entertainment has won the 2009 Bride’s Choice Awards™! In its inaugural year, the Bride’s Choice Awards recognizes and honors vendors from the WeddingWire Network that demonstrate excellent quality of service, responsiveness, professionalism, value of cost and flexibility. This year’s recipients represent the top three percent of WeddingWire’s vendor community, which includes over 100,000 wedding vendors from across the US. That means Event Team Entertainment is one of the very best Disc Jockey Entertainment Companies. Unlike other awards in which winners are selected by the company, the Bride’s Choice Awards are determined exclusively by recent newlyweds through surveys and reviews. “We are excited to launch this annual award program to honor high-performing vendors based solely on the experiences of our WeddingWire community,” according to Timothy Chi, WeddingWire’s Chief Executive Officer. “This year’s recipients have set the bar high, exhibiting excellent service and expertise in the wedding industry.” Event Team Entertainment would like to thank our past clients for speaking on our behalf and helping us win the 2009 Bride’s Choice Award!

We could not have asked for a better February day in Oregon. The high temperature of the day was around the mid-50's and the sun was shining. A great group of friends and family showed up at Immanuel Lutheran for the 4:00 Ceremony and everyone moved over to Waverley Country Club for the reception that started at 5:30. It was great to work with Jared Birt he is a very talented Photographer. We had some very touching moments at the reception. Jonathan actually wrote and recorded the 1st Dance Song. He did not know it but Colsey got a hold of the song, before it made it to me, and she added her own voice to surprise Jonathan. What a perfect 1st Dance! Colsey and Jonathan also both recorded special messages to Terry (Father of the Bride) and Dawn (Mother of the Groom). I mixed those messages with their songs and Terry and Dawn both shed a few tears as they danced with Colsey and Jonathan. I was honored to be a part of such a beautiful evening. Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Jonathan Simcoe!
