I had the pleasure of DJing for Adam and Linda this past weekend.  They’d gotten married back in April and Tony Tee from SCE had been their DJ.  When they started planning the second phase of their reception, Tony was unavailable and so he referred them over to us (thanks Tony!).  It was a fun day with a very unique first dance.

Adam and Linda’s first dance was “The Book of Love.”  It’s a song originally done by a band called The Magnetic Fields.  Most people know Peter Gabriel’s version of the song but Adam and Linda danced to a version done by Mike Doughty.   But half was through the song, right after the lyric “you can sing me anything” I lowered the volume and Adam asked Linda, “can I really sing you anything?”  When she said yes, Adam and his friend Mike then played the song with Adam singing.  Linda and all of her guests looked on lovingly and I have to say, Adam really nailed it.  It was one of the more unique first dances I’ve ever seen in all my years of DJing.

Congratulations Adam and Linda!

Adam was nice enough to offer me this WeddingWire Review after the wedding:
