February 28, 2014 Classical Indian Wedding

The marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Manish Kakar's was one of the most memorable events that we have ever had the pleasure of hosting. The traditional Indian ceremony was held at sunset at the historic Dana Point Yacht Club overlooking a stunningly calm and serene harbor after hours of non-stop stormy weather.

In fact, the fire circling ceremony known as "fehre" was initially planned for outside, but with the waves flooding the entire balcony, the staff at the Yacht Club worked ferociously along with the family of the bride the morning of the wedding to create a stage and environment that was arguably better than the original. 

Even without the ceremony, the reception afterwards alone warrants this wedding as one of the most fun and crazy events in GrooveBox Entertainment's decade-long history. It included everything from a live tabla and sitar duo to a traditional Indian dance performance by one of the family friend's daughters.

And of course the dance floor was lit ablaze by DJ Kav, but boy do Indian people love to dance!

We had such a wonderful time at this wedding and look forward to being a part of many more cultural and unique events! Photo credits go to our personal friend Raul Lozano. Call him at 714-906-4082 for your event and make sure to mention GrooveBox Entertainment!

Eric's Surprise 40th Birthday Party

We had so much fun this Friday hosting Eric's surprise birthday party. The guests held nothing back when it came to taking part in the Fancy Pants theme of the night, featuring everyone from old school rock stars in skin-tight leather pants to the hippie-cultured CEO's of Silicon Valley. GrooveBox provided insane mix after mix for the seemingly tireless crowd, who couldn't get enough time on the dance floor. Of course, none of this would have been possible without the one and only Andrea Lanfriend, one of the best event coordinators we've had the honor of working with. Thanks for letting us be a part of your birthday Eric and we hope you had a wonderful 40th birthday!

Halloween Party 2013

Kevin is one of our regular clients and we've worked this event for him multiple times in the past. He's always a pleasure to work with and, like every other year, we had tons of fun getting everyone into the Halloween spirit. The costumes were spectacular and the personalities even more so!

Technically, this is a corporate event that Kevin hosts at his own home for his employees and their families as a fundraiser for Toys for Tots. We are so proud to be a part of such a beautiful and passionate cause with caring people. And the enthusiasm and energy everyone brought to the party made our job that much more fun. Thanks for a great night Kevin and we can't wait to see you again next year!

September 7th Jenn & Noel

This was by far one of the most fun weddings we've done in quite some time. From planning their wedding to set up to all the fun and games of the interactive package, Jenn and Noel and all of their family and friends were an absolute pleasure to work with. The gorgeous venue on Santa Barbara Avenue in Aliso Viejo along with the one of GrooveBox Entertainment's best lighting packages created an atmosphere that perfectly complimented the fun and outgoing mood of the audience. And everybody certainly had more than their fare share of souvenirs to remember the night by as the professional services of Capture the Moment Photo Booth and Nathan Nowack Photography managed to capture just about every aspect of the beautiful reception.

Between all the excitement and fun, Jenn & Noel managed to squeeze in this picture with their favorite MC!
