It would be criminal to host a videogame-themed reception without providing some actual games to play. We had two gaming stations:
- A Nintendo Wii with four controllers hooked up to an LCD television
- A complete Xbox 360 Rock Band 3 setup projected onto a screen with audio piped through a PA system
Rock Band, as we all know, has been scientifically proven to be the best party game of all time. Supplemented with a song list several hundred strong, the RB3 station drew a crowd of players and spectators all night long. Players at the Nintendo station favored New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Super Mario Kart Wii for some more competetive fun.
In between the game stations was a dance floor, and it was expertly DJed by Jason Remaly from Silver Sound DJs. We established a playlist centered largely around ska staples like Streetlight Manifesto, Reel Big Fish, and The Mighty Mighty BossTones. I beamed with pride when the floor went from zero to circle pit in an unprecedented 3 songs.
The dinner prepared by Feastivities was excellent, but my favorite part of the catering service was the self-service ice cream bar at the end. Homemade vanilla and chocolate ice cream were complimented by a full spread of toppings: hot fudge, whipped cream, cherries, sprinkles, strawberries -- basically, everything. I’d say that I don’t understand why more weddings don’t feature ice cream bars, but in truth I don’t understand why any event wouldn’t feature ice cream bars.
