Where in the World?

Last Saturday, I thoroughly enjoyed going into Bonaventure cemetery, finding a perfect place, setting up my big ole' harp and toodling my fingers.

Visiting, touring, wandering, strolling, riding in a tour bus......folks stopped to comment, gawk, point, even strum the strings.  Such an easy way to meet people!  I sit in one place and play.....and they come to me!  Drawn by the sound.  I LOVE it!

Enjoyed it so much that I'm feeling the need for adventure again.  I'm becoming an adventure junkie!

It's a bit difficult to 'sneak' anywhere with 6 feet of carbon fiber/wood/metal and vibrating string so I should probably ask for permission (if necessary) to play.....wherever it is that the wild winds of fortune take me next time.

Where SHOULD I go??? 

Steampunk Savannah

Savannah has so many wonderful places for events with  Steampunk or Victorian themes.  

This post is inspired by a Steampunk wedding held recently in Bonaventure Cemetery.  

Steve Shulte and Raven Clark did what they do so well......officiate and oversee!

So inspired by the pictures of the wedding was I, that I hied (yes, I did look it up) 
myself thither. (had to look that one up too) 
I expected to feel the ghostly presence of a time long, long ago. 
 Instead, my fingers channeled Elvis. 

Of course I got to daydreaming about what I would wear if I got married in Bonaventure Cemetery...


.....just daydreaming in a beautiful, peaceful place.

Don't Forget the Music!

You've got the rings ........

You've got the bling   

You've got the dress

You remembered the shoes

Don't forget the MUSIC!

Music can lighten a mood, underscore the solemnity of an event, or just make everyone feel good. The music for your ceremony provides the mood for the event so, because music is such an important contributor to the atmosphere of your wedding, you want to make sure that the music you choose is appropriate for both you and your guests.  

Are you a lover of all things traditional or are you a trend setter?  

Your wedding music should reflect what you love!

Prelude music is meant to entertain your guests as they anticipate your arrival.  

Do you want a specific genre of music such as Classical, Celtic or Country? 

Perhaps an entertaining 'mash-up' of popular love songs and oldies is more your style.

The 'Oldies' are guaranteed to bring back memories for your older guests. 

  

What kind of music do you love? 

I'm looking for new music to learn.......give me some ideas!
