On June 30, 2017 Catering at the Zoo hosted a wedding celebration that can be summed up in one word – FUN!
Michael Quirk and Amanda Graham run a dance studio together and Mike popped the question with a “flash mob” style proposal and a little help from their students. Of course she said yes!

After a torrential rain storm came through during the day, the clouds parted, the sun came up, and Mike and Amanda ended up with a picture-perfect summer evening for their Courtyard ceremony.

Guests blew bubbles as the newly minted Mr. & Mrs. Quirk walked down the aisle.

Mike is a professional wedding DJ, so he and Amanda understood the impact that hiring a top-notch team of vendors would have on their very special day. Their talented vendor team was such a pleasure to work with and everyone collaborated to make the event a smashing success.
Kammer Films produced a video that captures Amanda and Mike’s playful sense of humor perfectly.

We LOVE the super hero t-shirts the guys wore under their suits:
Tammy from Edges Photography took full advantage of all the charming photo op locations the zoo has to offer and she captured so many fabulous shots of this special day.

MJ’s DJ Service kept the guests on the dance floor for the entire evening, and Mike and Amanda closed out the night with a beautifully choreographed rendition of “(I’ve had) The Time of My Life”.
We’re so happy for Mike and Amanda and we wish them a lifetime of joy as they build their new life together.
