THE DIRECTORS SHOWBAND: My big fat Jewish wedding


Harvey and Taryn were married at the Shaar Hashomayim synagogue.

Upon making their entrance they began a choreographed waltz to their personal request: "Nothing else matters" by Metallica performed by The Directors Showband.


The Directors Showband began performing and no time was wasted before the dance floor began to fill with people.

The Directors have been noted as having great energy, chemistry and an ever-changing list of music catered to every age group.
----------------------------------------------

Words from the bride and groom, Taryn and Harvey, following their wedding:

Randi and Tony,

"We’ve been to many weddings and you guys are truly in a league of your own. No gimmicks, no games, just elegance, class and quality all the way. Our dance floor was packed all night, our guests had a great time, and everyone we speak to raves about the caliber of the band. We were particularly impressed by the way you felt out the crowd, played every song in a timely manner, and performed our requests as though you’ve been playing them for years. We appreciate your professionalism on and off the stage, and we’re grateful to you for making our wedding absolutely incredible."

Taryn & Harvey

The Directors Showband would like to thank Taryn and Harvey for their kind words and respond by saying: "We hope you had as much fun as we did !!".

Good luck to you both, Mazel Tov!

Special thanks to the staff at Shaar Hashomayim synagogue.
It is ALWAYS a pleasure to find ourselves in your care.

sincerely,

The Directors Showband

THE DIRECTORS SHOWBAND : These magic moments


The Directors Showband have performed at many weddings over the course of the summer.
It has been difficult to keep up with the growing number of shows.
Here is another entry from their busy summer.
-------------------------------------

Clare and Brian were married at the Hotel Nelligan located in Old Montreal.
They certainly made a beautiful couple.


The hora took flight and the crowd surrounded them.


The Directors Showband have received praise from some of the most noted and prestigious Rabbis and Cantors in the city for their hora.


Clare and Brian shared their first dance to "The way I am" by Ingrid Michaelson performed by The Directors Showband.


The blessing over the bread, translation "Motzi" in hebrew, by Brian's grandfather Irving began a beautiful serving of courses by the staff at the Nelligan Hotel.


Another honor bestowed on the mother and father of the groom: The Mezinka.
This happens when the last child has been married off.

Although there are no photos of it, there was a special presentation by Clare, the Bride, and her troupe of dancers who surprised guests with a dance routine in the style of river dance. Unbelievable!

The Directors Showband would like to thank the Pinchuk and Hutchinson families.
Mazel Tov to Clare and Brian.
May the next years bring much Nachus !

Thanks you also to Maddy K and The Hotel Nelligan.

Sincerely,

The Directors Showband.
---------------------------------------------------

Here are few words from the Bride and groom:

"We wanted to let you know that you guys did a totally outstanding job at our wedding, we were really thrilled. The energy was great, the band sounded fantastic and the singing was amazing. We also appreciated your help with coordinating the Irish dancing, and just with the general flow of the evening. We got a ton of compliments from our friends and family about how much you guys added to our wedding."

Thank you so much,
Clare and Brian

THE DIRECTORS SHOWBAND: Fairytales do come true



Tilda and Elmo's story is a real life tale of "love at first sight".
From across the dance floor their eyes met.
She saw his green eyes and knew, right then and there, with that inexplicable feeling, that this man would be the one she would spend the rest of her life with.
Sure enough, four years later they were wed.


Tilda and Elmo were married at Plaza Volare/Crowne Plaza on Cote de Liesse, on September 12, 2009.


The Directors Showband were the chosen entertainment for the evening and stopped at nothing to keep the dance floor exploding and the crowd engaged with their full variety repertoire and onstage antics.

Special moments were had throughout the night and The Directors own photographer was right in there to catch them as they unfolded..

The second opening dance: Typically called "The confetti dance".

And now for another special presentation of "Why'd they do that?"

Why do couples, mostly of Italian origin throw confetti or in this case cover the newlyweds in streamers?
The whole tradition of throwing confetti can be traced back to pagan times, when newlyweds had grain thrown over them in the hope their marriage would be as fruitful as the seeds. It’s also a way of showing the couple that you want to ‘shower’ them with blessings in their new life together.
-------------------------------------------

Back at the party, Tilda had a sentimental moment with her father.

Elmo followed with his mother....

The bouquet was thrown...

Elmo entertained guests and family with a dance of his own for the garter search...

The night continued on until the wee hours of the morning and everyone left feeling plentiful and full of love for the lucky couple.

The Directors Showband would like to wish Tilda and Elmo "Auguri !". You are a truly blessed to have found each other and we wish you only the best of luck , happiness and health that you deserve.
-----------------------------------------------------

A special mention goes out to the staff and management at The Plaza Volare
who truly outdid themselves and have a flawless reputation of abundance and professionalism.
There was no stone unturned here.

Another special mention to Pacifica .
Always a pleasure working with you.

Sincerely,

The Directors Showband
