Andy and Molly’s wedding was an upscale celebration at the Hotel Monaco. With many out of town guests, the couple knew they wanted to have their ceremony and reception in one location. The hotel accommodated all their wishes by providing a large ceremony space, rooftop cocktails, and beautiful ballroom.

The bride and groom envisioned an amazing party and there was no way to do that without a fantastic live band. The couple enlisted the premier John Parker Band to perform all evening long at their reception. Everyone enjoyed nonstop dancing, singing, and popular music!

We love this photo taken of the groom before seeing his bride. The couple chose to do a first look, which is when a bride and groom see each other before the ceremony. They were able to take many photos together with their photographer, Christina Montemurro.

The bride looked glamorous. Her dress was sleeveless with a high neckline, sparkly belt, and full skirt. Her bouquet was an array of gold, white, and yellow blooms. It was exquisitely done by  My Garden Floral.

Their ceremony space was so pretty with cream floral arrangements and a white aisle runner. We love the cool design of the carpet too!  And the John Parker Band played music during the ceremony.

What a great shot of guests mingling during cocktail hour. A rooftop is certainly the place to be! Guests must have been eager for the reception to start to listen to some awesome music by John Parker Band. They were all set to start the night off with introductions in the ballroom.

The ballroom was decorated tastefully with white flowers and black tablecloths. Votive candles were scattered throughout the room and impressive light fixtures hung from the ceiling. The dance floor was in the middle of the room with John Parker Band all set up. The bride and groom had their first dance to the song “El Camino”.

The night started off with popular hits to bring everyone out on the dance floor. The band wanted all their guests to have a great time and playing familiar songs is definitely the way to go! The couple had a few songs they requested to be played, including “Wagon Wheel” and “Shake It Off”.

The newlyweds trusted the band to make the right choices of what songs to play. John Parker Band had a few tricks up their sleeves with groovy lighting, energetic band members, and swinging tunes. Take a look at that dance floor! It was packed! We love the angle of this shot, the view of the band and guests having fun.

Thanks to event manager Brittney Harryman, the room looked absolutely brillant! The red and black color scheme really created a dramatic look to the room.

Couple shares first dance to John Parker Band.

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!

Hillsboro_Beach_Club-Wedding-JP_Band_10On it’s own private peninsula overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, Hillsboro Beach Florida’s Hillsboro Club is known for its stately elegance and style. With it’s Clubhouse sitting right on the beach, it was like a dream come true for Katie and Dan’s Oceanfront wedding, with it’s luxurious beachfront views and elegant attention to details.

Keeping the tone of class and elegance, The John Parker Band provided the soundtrack to the evening, infusing fun into the night.

bride Katie said: “Thank you so SO SO much for an amazing night!!! Our guests were IN LOVE with you and your band- they all said it was the best band they had ever seen/heard at any wedding and in general. You truly made the night and we could never thank you enough.”

Awesome South Florida Wedding Photographer Sara Kauss captured some of that amazing night in this sampling of photos:

Katie’s dad Dick added:

“You and your band were outstanding. There is no question that it was you who made the wedding such a success. Everyone commented on how good the music was, and all of us appreciate your professionalism and how well organized you were.”

We’re flattered and thankful for these comments, as we truly pride ourselves on our professionalism and organization, along with unparallelled attentiveness to our brides and grooms.

& we’d love to elegantly rock YOUR wedding too! Contact us so we can hear about your plans & dreams!

Valerie and Kurt’s wedding was at the magnificent and unforgettable Gulf-front  Marco Beach Ocean Resort.

John, of The John Parker Band, says that “Corrin from Marco Beach, and planner Kehrin Hassan from Jet Set Wed were so easy to work with” and that “the resort was among the best on the West Coast of Florida!”

Corrin and Kehrin coordinated this laid-out wedding, which ironically John had the pleasure of being a part of due in part to his popularity on the Jersey Shore, AND South Florida – funny enough – as Valerie’s father is a senator in New Jersey.

Ashley Brockinton Photography was kind enough to share these awesome photos – thanks Ashley!
