Jordan + Matt’s Camelot Manor Wedding | A Surprise Dance & Sparkly Sneakers

Jordan and Matt’s wedding day at Camelot Manor was the perfect mix of elegant details, joyful moments, and an unforgettable reception. We were honored to provide ceremony sound and DJ their reception—and let’s just say, this one had the dancefloor packed all night long.

The Details

Jordan and Matt’s wedding design featured soft blues and classic white, from the florals to the bridesmaid dresses. Jordan’s strapless gown was timeless and simple, paired with a skinny sparkly belt, glittering heels, and—you guessed it—sparkly sneakers for the dancefloor! It was the perfect look for someone who wanted to celebrate in style and comfort.

Before the ceremony, the couple shared a private vow reading, which gave them a quiet moment together away from the crowd. It’s always such a special touch—and a great way to take some pressure off the ceremony itself.

While the weather gave us a bit of rain earlier in the day, it cleared just in time for photos, the ceremony, and a lively reception under beautiful skies.

The Celebration

Following a sweet ceremony, guests explored the gorgeous Camelot Manor property while anticipating the newlyweds’ entrance into the reception. The wedding party kicked things off with “Party Rock Anthem” by LMFAO, followed by Jordan and Matt entering to “Marry You” by Bruno Mars. Then they shared their first dance as husband and wife, soaking in the moment surrounded by all their favorite people.

One of our favorite moments of the night? Jordan and her dad had planned a surprise choreographed dance—and we were lucky enough to help bring it to life with a custom pre-mixed track based on their favorite songs. It was an instant crowd-pleaser and set the perfect tone for an energetic, packed dancefloor.

A Night of Nonstop Music

Jordan and Matt came prepared with an incredible variety of song requests, which gave us the chance to really tailor the soundtrack to fit them (and the dancefloor!). From country favorites like “Dixieland Delight” and “Tennessee Whiskey,” to iconic singalongs like “Mr. Brightside,” “Party in the U.S.A.,” and “I Wanna Dance With Somebody,” we blended throwback pop, classic rock, 2000’s bangers, and timeless wedding staples. It made for a high-energy night full of crowd favorites and surprise hits—basically, a DJ’s dream setlist!

The Sendoff

To wrap up the evening, Jordan tossed her bouquet and Matt tossed Jordan’s garter from the Juliet balcony at the front of the house—such a fun twist!

Guests were already gathered below, which made the transition into their ribbon-shaker sendoff seamless (and made for some super fun, festive photos!).

We loved being the entertainment for Jordan and Matt’s celebration, and wish them a lifetime of love, laughter, and epic dance parties!
