Libby and Jim, August 21st, MacAurther Air Force Base, Los Angeles

A warm Saturday Night in Los Angeles set the scene for this Bride and Groom and 130 of their friends and family. We set the ceremony over looking the Harbor in front of Cabrillo Beach where enemy planes once flew by to sound of antiaircraft fire from this base in 1942. The green grass we set up on was perfectly manicured as was every inch of the Historic Air Force Base. The prelude was completely Hawaiian right down to the clothes we all wore that day with lots of traditional and modern Hawaiian music. Huge ships were going by all night and It felt like being transported back in time to the 40's with the buildings essentially as they were then and the incredible air of the location feeding the emotion of the day. The reception followed an incredible meal done on-site by "Er-Hart's By The Sea" with laughter, cocktails and dancing to a very progressive dance floor mixed with classics and even some cool old school jams we dusted off just for this event. We mixed until they made us say good night at 11 with lots of dancing and festivities. This Bride and Groom introduced me to an artist that I want everyone to hear, EKOLU. Incredible singer song-writer with the Island vibe these two love so much. This was a great Day in L.A. and I was really happy to be DJ for these two,  .....wow
