Wedding Music Ideas
For every bride out there that wants help selecting tunes for her wedding and reception, I would like to make a recommendation: Check out www.pandora.com! This website is amazing, part of the music genome project, it was created in 2000 by a group of music loving technologists. Pandora allows you to create your own music stations and then customize your preferences. How you ask? After you select a genre or artist you love the site plays one song of that type, then starts offering another, similar but slightly different musical selection. You give each song a thumbs up or a thumbs down, this is how the site learns your personal preferences and thus customizes radio station just for you. This a great tool if you have a general idea of what you want to hear, but need a little help with the details. And don’t just use this for weddings, I listen to my stations on pandora daily at my computer while I work, you can even have it streamed to your iphone!
Wedding guestbook: a recipe for success!

- Recipe Guestbook
At one of my recent weddings the bride and groom opted to use a recipe book in lieu of a traditional guest book. What an innovative and unique touch. Rather than having a book that they would likely look at once and then put away, by using the recipe book they will have the opportunity to randomly stumble upon the well wishing and congratulations of their wedding guests anytime they use it to cook. I was and continue to be really impressed with this idea.
Wedding Catastropy
While surfing you tube (I know, it’s addictive) I found this clip. This is quite possibly the most random, surprising, and unfortunate thing I have ever seen happen during a wedding ceremony. Check this out. Your jaw will practically hit the floor, I know mine almost did! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ga-ULeG09QY
Wedding Photos in Sepia

Kevin and Abby Waller
In this photo from one of my recent weddings Zach Porter (www.zachporter.com) captured the bride and groom outdoors, in front of the lake. He used the Sepia tone to give the picture an antique and classy look. I love this pic, it looks like it could be from the early 20th century, very unique and striking!
