I’m gathering quite the page of kick ass vendors/inspiration sites*. These are people in the industry that not only would you hire for your special day, but you can just as easily sit down with and have a beer (or coffee). And since Hi-Fi is all about the tunes in our lives, we’re gonna get to know what these peeps dig on musically.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, however the impeccable images produced by Studio Castillero render me speechless. From capturing the darling details to all of the pure emotions throughout a wedding – they nail each and every shot. If you’re in need of a swoon go get lost in their site! You can thank me later…after you’ve picked up your jaw and wiped away all the drool. Today I have the lovely Mrs. here to share some of her music insights and my couple crush just keeps growing and growing!

Can you describe your life (so far) in 3-5 songs?
*Girl From North Country by Bob Dylan (has been my favorite song for pretty much my whole life, it’s part of me)

*How to Disappear Completely by Radiohead (no, I’m not depressed, although did have my fair share of “angst” growing up which was well suited for my love of this band. I could define my life in song by them alone because every phase of my life is pretty much identified with a Radiohead album….yes, I know, I’m obsessed) <—-OMG ME TOO!!! YAY!

*That Dress Looks Nice on You by Sufjan Stevens (a tribute to all the weddings I attend and Sufjan got me through college, which wasn’t too long ago so still resonates with me strongly…probably always will)

*Rollercoaster by M.Ward (always think of this song when thinking back on life, or at least the first 23ish years of it)

What is your favorite love song?
Oh man, hard to narrow it down…Brand New Colony by Postal Service or True Love Waits by Radiohead

If you could go see anyone perform live who would it be?
Sufjan Stevens and Sigur Ros (concert has to be in a field in Iceland during a long summer night, since I’m dreaming here)

What is your preferred format of music?
hmmm…I don’t really have a preference but for convenience sake I’d say mp3 since they are a bit more portable than the others.

Are you a musician? If so, what do you play? If not, what would you play?
Well, I’d like to say I’m a musician because that’s one of my dreams, BUT not quite there (or even close). I do play the piano though, and that counts for something!

*Do you know someone who should be on the vendor/inspiration page? Just email me and let’s chat!
