At Mixon’s we are used to family traditions since the orange farm was built on that, FAMILY. Our first edition of Real Wedding at The Pavilion at Mixon Farms truly encompasses that. Avid sports fans and blended family makes for a dynamic couple with Jennifer & Kenny who wed on the March 3rd, 2019.
This week we are featuring one of our Pink List Member DJ’s! We know that one of the main ingredients for a wedding to be GREAT versus good, is the music! A wedding involves so many emotions, happy, nervous, wildly excited and those are all amplified and hit home with music. When choosing your music and DJ entertainment, be sure to follow a few key points such as, is their equipment up to date, are they still using cassette tapes? Do they have video and reviews from a wedding or event they have DJ’ed in the last month? How responsive are they? Lastly, their style of music; do they know the songs you are mentioning or are they trying to steer your choices in a different direction? With that, let us now introduce you to one of our very own 5 Star awarded DJ’s in the Sarasota, Manatee area, TLS Entertainment!!

The cost of a wedding in the 21st century can be quite different from when your parents or grandparents had to plan for theirs. One of the biggest debates is, who pays for what? Traditionally, certain types of expenses were divided between HIS & HERS families. This was also possible, because the cost of a wedding was much different. According to an article by Quartz, the average wedding cost in today’s dollars, during the depression-era, was $6,481 versus $29,858 today. So, how do you do it in the 21st century, when so many couples are taking on majority of the financial burden? We’ve broken it down for you, so grab your pen and paper and follow along to make your list go smooth!
