The guitarist played those 4 songs on the guitar..

Congratulations! Our tastes are very similar. I am obsessed with the Dusty Shale and have been set on it, but went to Nordstrom this past weekend and saw the Hint of Mint and Beach Glass and love them just as much. Do you have any pictures of your girls in that color on the beach? Congratulations again!

Thank you! I know I love the dusty shale jcrew color but was trying to find something more affordable for my BMs and I am glad I chose the hint of mint for nordys...it looked so beautiful and we got so many compliments! I wanted beach colors and that is exactly what it was!

I have seen the new nordstrom BM dress color by the same brand (can't remember what it is now lol) and I think it is the beach glass and I love that too.

I will post some pics from my phone in a few minutes (on a new computer without the pics).

Happy planning

The WC runs the iPod for the ceremony (you have to have someone run it for the reception or DJ). I just explained it to her real quick during our meeting and she did a great job!

It didn't turn out exactly like I was planning for the toasting only because I didn't understand exactly the flow of things (my WC even tried to clarify with me on the wedding day and I misunderstood so it was my fault). You need a song for the signing of the marriage certificate, which happens right before you are announced, then a song for after you are announced and walk back down the aisle.

Then they get the champagne out and this was the "toasting" and those four songs just played through after the one I had set for the recessional (I think that is what it is called when you walk back down after the ceremony lol I can never get it right!).

Hope that made sense and feel free to ask any other questions!

Gorgeous! I was worried that since it was such a light color it might looked washed out against the beach, but it looks amazing! So beachy! Thank you!
