I DJ’ed two weddings this weekend back to back...that used to be super common for me but since having a baby 2 seasons ago I just don’t have the stamina anymore! But I have to say, both weddings were fu***ng spectacular. I am SO lucky that I have a job I love. Being a wedding DJ is often and simultaneously weird, delicious, stressful, hilarious, rowdy, silly, bizarre and beautiful. From ceremony processionals to first dances and last songs, my work day runs a pretty broad gamut of complex emotions, evoking an array of musical moods. I’m never on autopilot. Spinning vinyl keeps me on my toes and super engaged with my audience. I basically just get to make live mix tapes for cool people on the best day of their lives. Anyway here’s a selfie I took on the couch at this afternoon while I waited for guests to arrive to the cocktail hour. I sent it to my partner to show my kid before bed to say “mama loves you. Sorry she looks so dorky and tired in this pic. It’s been a long but fulfilling weekend” 🖤.
