Meghan and Stephen: Photographer Shots

Completely appreciate when photographers send us a few shots of our weddings. I love being able to share them with you all! Thanks to Todd Lafler for sharing these with us. I've posted a few shots here, but you can see all the photos on the photographer's blog.

Memorable Music Moments 2011

I was just thinking about all the songs used during Crossed Keys weddings in 2011. From crooners like Michael Buble and Dean Martin, to alternative and indie acts like Ingrid Michaelson and James Morrison. It's so interesting to see how a choice reflects a couple's love and personalities. From fun to romantic, we had it all this year. Here are few of my favorites and complete list to inspire your music choices.

Favorite Processional: Strawberry Swing - Coldplay
Such a unique choice for a processional and the lyrics couldn't be more great "It's such a perfect day..."



Most Popular First Dance: You are the Best Thing - Ray LaMontagne



Personal Favorite: First Day of My Life - Bright Eyes
Just a guitar and some nice lyrics...this one is bubbly and romantic and I love it!



Here are a few more first dance song idea from some of our 2011 couples:

You Make It Real - James Morrison
Still the One - Shania Twain
That's How Strong My Love Is - Otis Redding
Love Song - 311
Got Me - She and Him
The One I Love - David Gray
Feels Like Home - Randy Newman
All I Do Is Dream of You - Michael Buble
You Belong to Me - Michael Buble
Save the Last Dance for Me - Michael Buble
Make You Feel My Love - Adele
The Way I Am - Ingrid Michaelson
Out Loud - Dispatch
