Luis Bodé DJ/Remix Artist/Producer Phone: 305.538.8484 email: luis@bodemusic.com written by: James Cubby DJ Luis Bodé first transformed his love of music and a hobby into a moneymaking profession at the tender age of thirteen. At sixteen Bodé’s music-buying habit was augmented with a stint in a small record store where he thrived on the latest music and trade publications. Although Bodé was Cuban-born, as a resident of Miami he found himself in the right place at the right time. Miami Beach suddenly became the trendy and hot “South Beach,” a nocturnal playground for celebrities and models with Bodé being one of the first DJs to hit the scene.

A Planner's job is not only to create, manage and excecute and event from start to finish. A planner's job is also to become the bride's best friend and calm her down in any way possible especially on the day of... I have a theory I do with my bride's I tell them to Stop! and smell there flowers right before they start to walk down the aisle. A wise person once told me when I got married to do this because it was good luck. I think it's wonderful to smell your flowers before since they smell so good but here's the thing.... Why do I also have my girls smell their bouquets? It gives awesome picture opportunities. I love when a photographer can capture a priceless moment as the picture below... To me these are the little moments as a bride you take with you and appreciate. As a planner it means the world to me to see a special moment like this captured. So special Thank you to Martha with UDS (Unique Design Studios) for this amazing moment!

As I sit here gathering the words to describe the feeling I feel (words fail me).. Who would of told me 10 years ago; I would own my own business, be my own boss but most importantly do what I do and create dreams for others... This journey has been far from easy but dedication and always moving forward has kept me here today. It's amazing that I began a business just as a hobby at the age of 20 and today it's bloomed before my very eyes. I am blessed beyond words and can't thank god enough for his blessings. There's a saying that goes "Love what you do and, you'll never work a day in your life"... That was my motivation and drive and I sit here today completely blessed... I work with my heart and soul and my job is not my job but rather my PASSION..... I take pride in what I do and can safely say I give it 200% of my time... First and foremost, I need to thank my husband for always giving me that push and drive I needed to move forward. He's invest

As a "Thank you" for being the foundation of my company showing and giving my clients top of the line customer service and products, I feel it's necessary to acknowledge and Thank them for all they do to make my business excel.

Maria and Luis couldn't of asked for a more beautiful day than theirs on their wedding day. I came in to assist Maria for just the "Day of" but it was a great time assisting her with the most important day in her life.
