Will & Kelsey’s Crane Creek Country Club Wedding was an absolute blast! It included a beautiful outdoor ceremony followed by a lively cocktail hour, a classy dinner and an energetic three-hour dance party! I couldn’t imagine spending a Saturday in June anywhere else or with any other group of fabulous people.
Ceremony
The ceremony took place right behind the classic Crane Creek Country Club Clubhouse on the second driving range; the gorgeous backdrop of the Boise foothills complimenting the bride and groom perfectly. Will’s longtime friend officiated the wedding which gave the ceremony a nice, personal touch.
Ceremony Songs:
- Prelude Music Style:
- Light Instrumental Covers of Popular Songs (think Piano Guys or Vitamin String Quartet)
- Processional Songs:
- Wedding Party: Guitar Tribute Players “Make You Mine”
- Kelsey & Father: Matt Nathanson “Wedding Dress”
- Recessional Song:
- Hollywood TV Players “How I Met Your Mother Theme Song” (it’s short, so I looped the middle portion of the song to allow enough time for the wedding party to exit as well.)
Reception
After the ceremony, everyone got settled in to the Crane Country Club Clubhouse for the rest of the evening. It started off with a lively cocktail hour while Will & Kelsey took a few photos, then we flowed right into the Grand Entrance and First Dance, followed by Dinner, Toasts, Cake Cutting and an UNFORGETTABLE three-hour dance party (So much fun!!). It was a night to remember for sure!
A lot of what made this Crane Creek Country Club wedding special was not only the great surroundings and talented vendors like Tana Photography, Jacq with Bliss Events, the Crane Creek Country Club staff and me (of course!), but Kelsey, Will and their entire group of friends and family. This was one of the nicest, most loving groups I’ve had the pleasure to work with. It was truly an honor to be part of this special day.
Will & Kelsey, thank you for having me!
