Wedding Music
Our inspiration for alot of things was actually a favorite band of ours. The Beatles. You will see this alot through out the wedding planning (:
We wanted to incorporate a few different styles of music to make sure everyone's taste would be satisfied at some point in the night without sacrificing the music that is important to us. So we came down to this a mix of 50's, 60's, 80's, Jazz, Contemporary/Modern, and a little bit of country (this was a must seeing we are getting married in rural VA). Now just to put this mix together and make it all work!
