Love & Basketball

Kelly & Dayne
May 25, 2008
Hotel du Pont
Wilmington, DE
Web Site

The glorious Gold Ballroom at the Hotel du Pont is a French Neoclassic ballroom, with gilded rosettes, glittering chandeliers and bas-reliefs of famous women including Helen of Troy and Cleopatra, and could not be more festive or extravagant.

I have said it before and I will say it again: If you have dreamed of a wedding day as near to perfection as humanly possible, the only location to consider is the Hotel du Pont. Their unprecedented attentiveness to detail is unparalleled. Their ability to satiate every need allows a bride and groom to relax and savor every moment.

Kelly and Dayne met while attending Lehigh University, both spending most of their time on the basketball courts, playing in front of thousands of screaming fans and the cameras of ESPN.

Dayne and Kelly spent a lot of time preparing an outstanding visual presentation for their friends and family, producing full-motion videos for their bridal party's introductions, the parents dances, and a ten minute video documenting their basketball careers, their lives, and Dayne's proposal to Kelly via a beach plane banner in Ocean City!

You didn't have to know Dayne and Kelly personally to be moved by the creativity displayed in their videos.

Congratulations, Kelly & Dayne!

Kelly & Dayne's comments about their wedding entertainment: "We wouldn't have wanted to have any other entertainment for our big day. From the first time we met Steve we knew we were in good hands and had nothing to worry about since it was under control of such a professional perfectionist. Our reception required some complex AV & coordination, and Steve was prepared for it all. He came well before everyone else and setup, testing everything in advance. The reception was nice and his music was great! Everyone had a wonderful time. We highly recommended Steve for any event!"
