A Real Hi-Fi Wedding: Stephanie & Carl’s Austin Awesomeness
Rabbit, rabbit! Let’s welcome August with open arms and this awesome Austin shindig! Stephanie and Carl’s turquoise and yellow wedding was full of fun details including skull invitations, colorful paper flowers, Mexican Papel Picados, a sugar skull cake, pom pom flower girls, Woody, Sheriff Badges, a Pinata, tumbleweeds, eco confetti and a REAL Longhorn! However, the pure magic of the reception was the music they selected from their Austin, Texas college days! Everything from ska dancing, occasional moshing and even a dog pile! I’m sure you’ll agree that it’s a fantastic mix of melodies!

I really loved the idea taken from Mexico of the skulls, the papel picado, the music, etc. You must know that in Mexico artisitic representations of death are not considered obscure or frightening in any way, they mean hapiness, so it is an original theme to add to a wedding. Congratulations for your original wedding! May you will be happy forever!

This was such a cool original wedding- I also loved that played the music from when they fell in love!
Thanks for featuring them!
