I gotta tell ya, I honestly love my job, I love our company, and I love working with so many great people, clients and colleagues alike. On September 5th, I was the Wedding DJ at Sherwood Country Club for Toni and Maxx, and I absolutely love it there. It’s a gorgeous place that reminds me so much of many of the venues and country clubs in my home state of North Carolina, or even many parts of Virginia. The clubhouse has a Georgian or colonial style architecture, built with tens of thousands of bricks and adorned with gleaming white trim and moldings.
Sherwood CC is manicured so well, you’ll think Disney World moved to Westlake, California. One thing is certain, if you’re having a Wedding here, your photos will look amazing, because there isn’t an inch of this property that isn’t picture perfect. Although it seems annoying at first, all of the vendors like myself are required to wear dress slacks and a collared shirt to set up their gear. No shorts, t-shirts without collars or denim allowed. But, that’s fine with me, I always wear a nicely tailored suit while DJing a Wedding, so I change into that after the set-up is complete.
As pristine and ornate as Sherwood is, you still have permission to party and have lots of fun, and Maxx and Toni’s Wedding was no exception. They even had an early wedding, which ended well before evening, and it was still a blast. Unfortunately, many early weddings are not the most fun, but I honestly have to say, this one rocked! Of course, some of the credit goes to the DJ, right? But truthfully, this was a great group of guests, which always makes my job easier. The guest list included 2 other couples whose weddings I have DJ’d recently. I’m beginning to see the positive residual effects of being a DJ in Southern California for the past 3.5 years, and I love it. What a great wedding this was for such wonderful people. I’m proud to such an intricate role in the special day of a Bride and Groom and their guests, to be the one that entertained them and left them begging for more. It’s an amazing feeling!
Sherwood Country Club Wedding Staff are terrific. Michelle, the catering director and her assistant Heather are great to work with, highly professional, friendly yet assertive, to get the job done right. And Jeri, the banquet manager is so sweet and has a lot of experience working at Sherwood, over 10 years she’s been there! She’s great!
I also credit my friend and the event planner Dana Bresin of DB Creativity along with her staff for helping bring together everything for this perfect day for the Bride and Groom. She didn’t miss one beat and was amazing to work with leading up to the event.
Photography was provided by Donald Miralle, a friend of the Groom’s and an amazing photographer. Take a look at his site, there are some unbelievable photos, like these from the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
The gorgeous wedding cake was a creation of one of our favorite bakeries in the area, For Heavens Cakes.
Yes, it was another perfect day for any wedding DJ in Ventura County, especially this one! I can’t think of a better job to have.
