Sophie and Josh’s Puerto Vallarta Party - Beach Wedding in Mexico

Sophie and Josh make their grand entrance at their beachside wedding in Puerto Vallarta.

Sophie and Josh make their grand entrance at their beachside wedding in Puerto Vallarta.

What a wedding experience this was!

I’ve DJ’d numerous beach weddings, all beautiful and filled with energy and love. But this one might be the best.

Sophie and Josh orchestrated a destination wedding that brought them, their friends and family to the warm sands of Puerto Vallarta. The ceremony and dance party took place on December 1, 2018 on a private beach at the Hyatt Ziva Resort.

They kicked it off by dancing to the Ed Sheeran’s, Perfect, which emulated exactly what the entire weekend was.

At the end of the evening, Sophie wanted to dance to Lady Gaga’s,“You and I,” a song that I’ve always thought is a great way to end a wedding. But even better, fireworks were scheduled to go off during the final dance.

To make the moment extra special, I researched different versions of the song, trying to find a live version that would work better than the radio version. And I found a version that Lady Gaga performed on the Jimmy Kimmel Show.

At the climax of the song, the fireworks shot off and aside from Gaga being there on the beach with us, I don’t think the moment could have been better.

This dance party was one of my all time favorites, for a couple that means so much to me. Having the trust of a client so much that they will fly me to their wedding is the great endorsement I could ask for.

Here’s a look at the rest of the setlist.
