Riverside Hotel Ft. Lauderdale Wedding – Theresa & Dale

Theresa & Dale started their life together with a simple, intimate ceremony at home with their closest family and friends. After the “I Do,” they moved the party to the historic Riverside Hotel, where the couple celebrated their marriage with a luau featuring premier Florida wedding entertainers, the John Parker Band!

Many more guests joined the couple to drink, dance, and celebrate with the couple at the Polynesian-themed event. The beautiful cake was decorated with seashells, guests wore leis, a ukelele player joined the band on stage, and flip-flop sandals were wrapped up as a gift for attendees. What a fun celebration of the couple’s love!

A big thanks goes out to photographer Michael Murphy for sharing these images with us!

Congratulations to Theresa & Dale! May you enjoy many more happy years together!

When Emily and Ben were planning their Chicago wedding, they made sure to incorporate important traditions from her home state of Pennsylvania: homemade cookies and premier Pittsburgh wedding band, the John Parker Band! The band was a huge hit at the couple’s rustic chic outdoor wedding and reception at the Galleria Marchetti, an exquisite wedding venue in the heart of Chicago. The evening’s photographer, Olivia Leigh described the reception as “one of the most epic dance parties I photographed this year.” EVERYBODY got out on the dance floor to celebrate with this fun couple. One guest even joined the band on stage during We Are Young, a song the band learned and performed just for the newlyweds, and the bride’s mom shared a family tradition by singing along with the band to New York, New York!

“I had so many people approach me that night, referring to the band, saying “best….decision….of your life”. I might argue that my new husband was the BEST decision, but you and your band were definitely a close second. You far exceeded our expectations!” – Bride Emily

Thank you to Olivia Leigh for sharing these incredible photos of the evening, and congratulations to Emily & Ben!

The couple’s ceremony and reception were held just before Valentine’s Day, and they subtly weaved the theme through their wedding style, with red and pink flowers and linens. As a personal touch, each of the guests received a photo frame as their place card, with love-themed images inside. Top Florida wedding entertainers, the John Parker Band, provided the music for the evening, and even Grandma hit the dance floor!

“You’re a true professional, and your timing and the range of music ensured everyone of all ages had a blast. Plus, Kelly and the rest of your team ensured all the planning ran smoothly. Thanks for helping make our wedding so memorable.” – Bride Raleigh
