A Real Hi-Fi Wedding: Krys & Jvee’s Steel Train Love
Of course I love communicating with any vendor that sends in a wedding they find a perfect fit, but I get a rush hearing from the bride or groom, themselves. There’s a passion in the email as they describe musical moments in their life. Since those are some of the favorites memories in my life, I know how important they can be. Now a photographer that captures weddings, Krys shares her and Jvee’s story:
There are a lot of songs that pinpoint key memories for us. Music played a big part in the beginning of our relationship. We met at a Steel Train/Finch concert in 2003 and most of our subsequent dates were when he would come to town to see some of our favorite bands. We were in a semi-long distance relationship for the first year. Days before our wedding we actually went to see Steel Train and they dedicated their song ‘Women I Belong To’ to us saying “This goes out to our friends Krys and Jvee…they met at our show and now they’re getting married”. That was really special to us. That song meant a lot to me at the time. It also made us stop and think of all the things we had been through in the 4 years we’d been together.
Jvee let me know he liked me by sending me the song “At Natures Mercy” by Hot Rod Ciruit through AIM. It feels so nerdy to think about that now. He sang Dashboard Confessional’s ‘Hands Down’ to me before he told me he loved me for the first time. One of the first Christmas gifts Jvee gave me was an iPod engraved with the lyric “You move me like I’ve got new feet” from a Northstar song ‘For Members Only’. The line “always catch the clock, it’s 11:11…” from Something Corporate’s ‘Konstantine’ inspired our wedding date – 11/11.
