Prep
The bridal suite is just up the stairs from the reception hall.
Also a popular spot for marriage license signing or a private moment for brand-newlyweds
A hut beyond the front entrance hosts the groomsmen,
preserving the first look for the perfect moment.

Ceremony
For May 2023 the arch, floral, & planning were provided by Wild Social Micro Weddings.
Familiar with North Star’s in-house / outdoor sound system, ceremony & cocktail hour are ready for outdoor surround sound without an additional DJ setup.
Note the speaker in the top corners of the photos below. 2 speakers face the altar while another 2 line the side terrace for cocktail hour.
Our Classic DJ Package includes at least 1 mic for the officiant, usually a clip-on lapel.
A second mic may be available for the groom (lapel) or for guest readings (handheld).
The ceremony shown below called for a lapel mic on each officiant (one on her dress, the other on his tie).

Cocktail Hour
Live Musicianship can be available for various portions of the day, inquire within.
North Star is equipped with 2 more speakers outlining the side deck for cocktail hour.

Our DJs bring Classic Lighting to every event.
Uplights are our most popular add-on
We also offer photobooth and 360 booth with a variety of backdrops and styles.
Cake Cutting
Some clients opt for an unnannounced, private cake cutting
shortly after the start of the dancefloor.

Send Off
If your photographer’s timeline concludes before the dancefloor, faux send off’s offer a chance for a photo op. Guests head back inside afterwards for a lighting change and soundtrack switch to keep party fresh.
