Molly and Jeremy had to make a million and one decisions before they said “I do” – Where should the reception be? What kind of food should we serve? What colors? What sights? What sounds? Luckily for us, the LAST thing they had to worry about was the entertainment for the evening. Arianna rocked out at Belvedere Banquets in Elk Grove Illinois for a beautiful night to remember. The crowd was electric and full of energy, and deserved nothing but the best Charizma has to offer. The room was warm and beautiful, the guests were smiling and happy, and most importantly, Molly and Jeremy were nothing short of blown away.

If you’re planning on getting married, or know someone who is, make sure to suggest Belvedere Banquets as a party destination, and of course, Charizma as the entertainment! (only if you want a fantastic party, of course)

We know you always have a choice when it comes to entertainment, and reading blogs, so we thank you from the bottom of our collective hearts for choosing Charizma! We promise you won’t be disappointed.

Return to Marz

One of the best parts about Charizma Entertainment is the people we connect with and the events that we are hired to do for them. When I saw Jodie at the Windy City Wedding Show it was a reunion filled with hugs and smiles.  Jodie and I met years before as she hired mr to emcee her son’s Bar Mitzvah in 1999.  Now, she and her fiancé Guy where looking for DJ entertainment that fit their style and personality.  Once we reconnection at the wedding show and she realized that I also do many weddings, it was a natural fit!   The wedding and reception was held at the famed Signature Room in Chicago. Located atop the John Hancock Center, The Signature Room at the 95th® offers diners exquisite food, superb service, and a dazzling skyline view. The elegant wood designs and art deco interior create an inviting and intimate atmosphere, while the floor-to-ceiling windows exhibit the stunning Chicago skyline and 360 degree views of the entire city. With this amazing view and atmosphere we chose to illuminate the room with wireless LED lighting to give the room a pop of color and to add the element of fun for dancing later in the evening. The ceremony was performed by a close friend of  Jodie & Guy’s with the musical backdrop of a cellist and singer. The cocktail reception was held in the same room so we were ready to go with the music format of the rat pack, Motown and 70’s. As we moved into dinner Jodie wanted to ensure that the mood was set for everyone to dance when dinner was done, so our transition started half way through dinner with some selections that got her friends and family singing and bouncing around in their seats. Jodie and Guy opened the dancing with their first dance “You Are The Best Thing”  by Ray LaMontagne – love that song!  From there:  Earth Wind and Fire, AC/DC, Robin Thicke and the Cha Cha slide the evening progressed flawlessly. And I had the honor of dancing with Jodie several times throughout the evening, and to see the smile on her face made me even happier to know that we had accomplished our goal for the evening.  At the end of the reception I took a moment before loading out my equipment to look at my city, Lake Shore Drive, and this night was beautiful.

How Pinteresting!

Today is December 26th.  My Pinterest followers has increased by 17% today {yes, I absolutely keep track of these things} – and all of my new followers are re-pinning from my wedding boards.  A little bling under your tree?  Welcome brand new brides.

When I got married I had stacks and stacks of wedding magazines, ripped pages, notes and ideas in THE BINDER.  The all knowing, idea-bursting binder.  Today’s bride has taken to Pinterest for inspiration and organization.  How great right?  The binder gets to come along on her phone or laptop for easy-planning at work or in bed.

I update the Charizma Entertainment Pinterest boards everyday.  Ok, usually multiple times a day.  Weddings, mitzvahs, birthdays, colors, food and a little fun.  Click over for some Pinspiration.
