create joy

The Answer is YES.

i wanted to post a quick blog in response to something matt said. matt, you asked if you guys are welcome to write your own songs, poems, words, etc for our wedding and the answer is YES - a resounding and unequivocal YES!!!

in fact, we want the ceremony to be interactive. we are going to see if all our musician friends and family would like to play one song each. matt i would love it if you'd read a poem, either that you love or that you wrote. any other ideas of creative things are welcome. i am hoping addie is writing a song for the slide show. i need some technical help with the "slide show" too, that is because it is digital and i really have no idea how to do it, i need to get a bunch of images on dvd. matt, mikie, any ideas? mikie, if you wanted to do a short dramatic monologue or sing a beautiful song that would be great.

one other thing i need is ideas for dance songs. mikie i was thinking you might know some since you really like to bop around to wild songs sometimes. i need "dance" songs that are still our style. although i really want to play "i'm bringin sexy back" too.

our celebration is a celebration of everything that makes us us and supports our love. you guys, my family, are key in this. we aren't having a "wedding party" per se, but we want everyone to be involved and all voices to be heard and lots of music and joy.
