Contagious Party Band: Shines at the Crystal Tea Room
The Contagious Band has once again been honored to have the privilege to perform at the Philadelphia landmark The Crystal Tea Room where the standard is set for elegance and style. There was no more appropriate place than here for the reception of one of the most adorable couples I’ve ever met Katie Schuster and Dr. Michael Johnson.
Surrounded by all their family and friends the magical evening started with Katie and Michael’s first dance was to Elvis Presley’s “I Can’t Help Falling In Love With You”. The moment seemed timeless. This may sounds like a Best Man speech when I say it but meeting them and watching them together it would be a challenge to image them with anyone but each other. They just fit so perfectly together.
For the parent dances the Contagious Band got to show our skills a little by setting up “I Loved Her First” by Heartland for Katie to dance with her father Daniel. With the Groom’s family being from Augusta Georgia we learned and performed a very special “Georgia On My Mind” by the late great Ray Charles. Seeing that Savannah Georgia is my home town we’ll have to keep the Georgia On my Mind song around for future use.
There are so many parts that make up a successful reception. The staff at the Crystal Tea Room made is so easy for Contagious to help make the evening unforgettable. We were aware of all the events that needed to take place and with their expert coordination made the evening seamless. Although I saw a wedding Bouquet completely “destroyed” during the toss to the single ladies J it was a ”fun” part of the evenings events. The dance party was incredible and the crowd met the challenge of The Contagious front line and kept the energy high all evening long. Katie and Michael finished off the evening showing their dancing skills and left everyone with a smile.
A special thanks to The Crystal Team room and most of all Katie and Michael for allowing the Contagious Band to be there when it all began. Best wishes to you both as you share life’s journeys together.
