If you couldn’t tell from Joan and Tim’s engagement session that their wedding would be awesome – well, I’m here to prove that point! Of course you can’t ignore how stylish these two are…everything from their attire to their details! When it came down to the music, they had fun doing every moment of it! The playlist represents not only their love for each other, but for their families and their personal passions. From a Celtic ceremony, to a Brazilian-beat champagne reception, to a 50’s dinner playlist, to Rockeoke, and finally to a blend of dance songs from across the decades – this wedding has music for everyone’s taste!
