We just wanted to share a funny story with you today! We know that everyone carefully considers every decision when it comes to planning their wedding, and the music is such an important choice to make. And there is such a choice that it's difficult to pick your faves, we're sure. Our Emma chose Elvis Costello's version of She because of the lovely lyrics toward the end, but the first section sounded a bit egotistical so she blamed Mr Illustries#1 for the choice.
At the moment, we'd choose Golden Love by Midnight Youth - we found it through our lovely photographer friends, boymeetsgirlphoto.biz, you can hear it on their site (and it was their first dance at their wedding a few weeks ago - aww!). But we'd stick with our Stevie Wonder's Signed, Sealed, Delivered for the trip back down the aisle!
Maybe a church wedding would be easier? Back to that funny story - Mr & Mrs Taylor certainly thought so. Here's an extract from their Illustry to explain today's choice of 'O'...
"…The couple stuck to tradition for their service, including the hymns Give me Joy in my Heart, Love Divine and Morning has Broken. The singing gave them both – and the congregation – one of their most memorable moments, as the vicar and organist seemed to be keeping completely different time. 'The vicar was lovely but she had a very high pitched singing voice,' explains Andrew, 'She was singing a completely different tempo from everyone else and the organist couldn’t decide whether to keep up – very Les Dawson. Bec and I were glancing at each other, and I thought we would crack up. There were plenty of shaking shoulders in the pews!'"'
At Illustries, we're all about memories: remembering, celebrating and enjoying all those special times that can pass too quickly. We think memories deserve to be shared, and so we're sharing. Here, in our blog, we are creating a Library of Days. Our own as we build our business, and yours as you celebrate weddings, births, big life events - you name it, we'll celebrate it!
