A Real Hi-Fi Wedding: Joey & McKay’s Music Montage
Photographed by the talented Matt from Our Labor of Love, Joey and McKay’s Tallahassee wedding looked like pure FUN! The lovely McKay was thrilled to send me details about their music selection for their day…in fact, she sent me several songs so that I can include them in the post! Prepare yourself for a Thursday desktop dance party…or whenever/wherever you read this!
um you guys…I love this shot! Totally checking out the wife’s ass!
My brother played acoustic guitar for all of the ceremony music – “Hallelujah” (acoustic version no words (since they are a little de-press-ing) for the bridal party, “Better Than Love” acoustic for my walk down the aisle and “Here Comes the Sun” was our exit (but my bro forgot to play!) ha!!!
Our first dance was to Taj Mahal “Entrance to the Meters” and the rest of our mix we had play mostly throughout cocktail hour and dinner. We wanted to incorporate some of the music we enjoy listening to at the wedding that isn’t your typical wedding fare, but still have a dance party that our friends and parents would enjoy. Yes – we got down to “Low” by Flo-ri-da and ended the night to “Don’t Stop Believin'” after a slammin’ double dutch contest to who knows what song. We wouldn’t have had it any other way – seeing everyone young and old singing and jamming out was amazing. Here were our “must haves”:
Lovin in my Baby’s Eyes – Taj Mahal
Just Kissed My Baby – The Meters
Orange Blossoms – Mofro

Climb to Safety – Widespread Panic
Perfect 10 – The Beautiful South
