2011-01-08 Morgan and Jay :: Westin Stonebriar
Posted on January 12, 2011
Morgan and Jay were such a fun couple to work with! Both Aggies, having met on campus at Texas A&M, having their first date at a local Aggie hotspot, and later becoming engaged Aggie-style – this reception had maroon blood running in it’s veins!
Nearly 400 guests attended the celebration, and were treated to a mix of Texas Country, Classic Country, and current Hip-Hop and Dance music. The room was up-lit all ’round, and the pipe & drape on the back wall made a great background for the party. And, in true Aggie style, they drank the hotel completely out of Michelob Ultra!
The groom’s cake was something to see (as was Morgan’s cake) – it was Bevo standing on the famed UT Austin football field, with his horns cut off!

Using Tommy as our MC/DJ for the wedding was a GREAT decision! His advice through the reception process enabled Morgan & Jay to have the memories they will talk about forever.
The level of professionalism exhibited by Tommy and Specialty Sound was unparalleled.
It is so wonderful to be able to re-live all the fun and special moments from Jay & Morgan’s Wedding. Great job in capturing those moments!!!
Tommy, thank you so much for posting the photos of Morgan and Jay’s wedding. It is so much fun to relive the incredible night! It was a pleasure working with you on this event. Looking forward to many more in the future.
