One week ago, I had the honour of officiating and DJing the incredible wedding of Monica and Zach—now officially Mr. and Mrs. Manifold! 💍🎉

Their ceremony at the beautiful Tangle Creek Golf & Country Club was full of love, laughter, and the kind of joy that only comes from two people who truly get each other. I’ve known Monica for well over a decade, and it’s been such a gift getting to know Zach throughout the planning process. Seeing not just the amazing partners they are, but also the loving parents they’ve recently become, made this one extra special.

And when it came time to party? Let’s just say with a bride who loves Morgan Wallen and a groom who absolutely lives for Kesha… it was one unforgettable night on the dance floor. 🎶🔥

Monica and Zach, thank you for letting me be such a big part of your story. Wishing you a lifetime of love, country ballads, pop anthems, and happiness!

On July 19th, I had the absolute pleasure of marrying Jaclyn and Brandon—now officially Mr. and Mrs. Staal! 💍💙

Their lakeside ceremony at the stunning Eganridge Resort in Fenelon Falls was nothing short of magical, with the Kawartha Lakes providing the perfect backdrop for their vows. After they said “I do,” we headed over to the historic 1837 Dunsford House for an amazing cocktail hour, then kept the celebration going strong with an unforgettable reception in the Treetops Ballroom—DJ’d by yours truly. 🎶🌲

It was a day filled with love, laughter, and so much joy, and I’m so thankful I got to be part of every moment. Jaclyn and Brandon, thank you for trusting me to bring your vision to life!

And the best part? Joyful Receptions is back at Eganridge this Friday, and we can’t wait to return to such an amazing venue!

On July 12th at the beautiful Evergreen Acres Farm in Severn, I had the honour of marrying Kristina and Cody—now officially husband and wife! 💍🌾

It was a day filled with love, laughter, and yes… heat—with the temperature soaring past 40 degrees! But that didn’t stop the celebration. After a stunning ceremony, we cranked up the music and kept the dance floor going all night long, led by none other than our unstoppable bride Kristina, who outlasted every single guest! 💃🔥

Kristina and Cody, thank you for trusting me to be such a big part of your day as both your officiant and DJ. What a night to remember—sweat, smiles, and so much love. 🖤🎶

On July 4th at the beautiful Three Feathers Terrace, I had the honour of marrying Erika and Adam—now officially Husband and Wife! 💍✨

Their ceremony was heartfelt, full of love, and surrounded by the people who mean the most to them. It was the perfect way to celebrate a couple who truly light up every room they’re in.

If Adam looks familiar, you’ve probably seen him out on the diamond playing for our local Barrie Baycats championship IBL team—where you’ll just as often find Erika in the stands, cheering him on louder than anyone else! ⚾️💙

Erika and Adam, thank you for letting me help kick off your next chapter together. Wishing you a lifetime of love, laughter, and big wins—both on the field and off! 🖤🎉

On June 28th, I had the honour of standing with Cass and Jake as they said “I do” surrounded by all their favourite people back home in Ontario-now officially Mr. and Mrs. Gross!

After building lives out west, these two returned home to celebrate their love with a beautiful backyard ceremony and an incredible backyard reception at Jake’s family home in Minesing. It was the perfect mix of heartfelt moments, laughter, and one epic party-officiated and DJ’d by yours truly.

Cass and Jake, thank you for letting me help bring your vision to life and for trusting me to be such a big part of your day. Wishing you both a lifetime of adventures together, wherever home may be.

On June 15th, I had the honour of officiating one of the most meaningful weddings of my career—for two very special people, Mikayla and Alastair! 💍🇬🇧🇨🇦

Their intimate backyard ceremony was full of heart, surrounded by friends and family—including many who traveled all the way from England. Every moment was authentic, joyful, and deeply personal… and this one hit especially close to home.

I’ve known Mikayla for 17 years—since our days at Barrie North—and Alastair is someone I’ve been proud to call a friend for over a decade.He has been one of my closest friends, someone I spent so many good times with, and to now stand beside them as they begin this new chapter was something I’ll never forget.

Even more exciting—I’ll be joining them again in January for their destination wedding in the Dominican, and I can’t wait to keep the celebration going in paradise.

Mikayla and Alastair, thank you for letting me be part of your love story in such a big way. Your connection is beautiful, your people are incredible, and your future together is already off to the best start. ❤️🌴

On June 14th at the gorgeous Pheasant’s Run Golf Course, I had the absolute honour of officiating and DJing the wedding of Annie and Trevor—now officially Mr. and Mrs. Bondi! 💍⛳️

Their ceremony was beautiful, heartfelt, and full of genuine love… but the reception? One of the most insane parties of my entire wedding career. The energy was off the charts from the first dance to the very last song—and I was here for every second of it!

Annie and Trevor, thank you for letting me be such a big part of your unforgettable day. You brought the love, your people brought the party, and together we made magic. Let’s do it all over again sometime! 🎉🔥🖤

A few days ago at the beautiful Three Feathers Terrace in Innisfil, I had the honour of being both the officiant and DJ for Violet and Stephen—now officially Mr. and Mrs. Leupolt! 💍✨

This wedding was extra meaningful for me. Seventeen years ago, as I was about to start high school, Violet was my Link Crew leader—someone who helped guide me through the start of a brand new chapter. And all these years later, I had the chance to return the favour by guiding her and Stephen into the start of their journey as husband and wife. A true full circle moment I’ll never forget.

Their ceremony was heartfelt, personal, and filled with love—and the reception? An absolute party from start to finish! Thank you Violet and Stephen for letting me play such a special role in your day. Wishing you both a lifetime of love, laughter, and unforgettable dance floors. 🖤🎶

This past Saturday at the breathtaking Glen Oro Farm, I had the honour of being both the officiant and DJ for Bailey and Charlie—now officially Mr. and Mrs. Page! 💍🌾

Their ceremony was filled with love, laughter, and a whole lot of heart. And just when guests thought they’d seen it all, Charlie made an unforgettable entrance to cocktail hour… on horseback! 🐎🍸

From the vows to the dance floor, every part of the day was uniquely them—and I was so lucky to help bring it all to life. Congrats Bailey and Charlie, and thank you for letting me be such a big part of your incredible celebration!

Two weeks ago in Ramara, I had the absolute pleasure of officiating the beautiful wedding of Tom and Kelsey—now officially The Vandenburgs! 💍✨

Their ceremony was full of love, laughter, and all the little moments that make a wedding truly special. And the celebration didn’t stop there—afterwards we brought the party to The Hayloft for a reception that was as fun and unforgettable as the couple themselves!

Tom and Kelsey, thank you for trusting me to be part of your incredible day as both your officiant and DJ. Wishing you a lifetime of love, dance parties, and joy! 🎶❤️🕺💃
