A Real Hi-Fi Wedding: Jordan & Hope’s Long Play Love
This wedding made my vinyl lovin’, record spinnin’ heart so happy! I don’t think I’ve ever seen the beloved LP used so much at a wedding! But leave it to this badass Austinite couple keeping it weird*, even at their own wedding. I love how much of themselves they incorporated into their day! Andrea, the talented lady behind the lens, was one lucky little gal! She has some lovely things to say about these two lovebirds:
Hope and Jordan envisioned a rock n’ roll wedding and they completely brought that to life. Hope is an amazing artist and it’s always a honor to be trusted to capture art for another artist. The ceremony was held at chapel dulcinea & the celebration continued on the roof top of Speak Easy.
What kept these cool cats swingin’ and celebratin’ on the dance floor you ask?
