Hi Guys, I know that you all usually do not hear much from me, and instead you hear from Will! He is the official guests interface and I am the wedding planner. It is a pretty good team :)
This weekend Will is having his bachelor’s party and I am here in LA. So far, I have had 5 hrs long skype wedding conversations with venders in Colombia, learned how to do an awesome banana pudding through skype with my maid of honor (Tiffany Russell) who lives in Huntsville AL, and now I am at one of my bridesmaids house (Andrea ) reading about my Mars Rover Project --Work--after we went for a 2 hrs hike.
Ok! But let’s get back to the point of my post…..Despite the warnings that I got from Will about some of his friendsJ, I am asking for everyone’s help! Will and I have not decided what songs we are play on the reception while the band is on break, soooo I thought that it will be awesome if you guys help us pick. What would you want to hear? It could be a song that you dedicate to both or one of us, or something that you just want to hear to have fun! I will start!
Kiss from Prince--- We need a sing along from Will and his groomsmen with this song! We might have to wait until really late for this to really happen…..some drinks first
Your turn!

Dirty Deeds, Done Dirt Cheap
Dear Diana and William, We love your blog, and we hope your life together will continue to be enchanting and exciting. We wish that we could be with you, but we can't. William's dad, Jim, and his wife, Mary, are dear friends, and I know they're excited to be joining you in just a few weeks in Cali.
This year was our 50th wedding anniversary. We hope you will enjoy all the happiness we've known, and more. Love, Linda and Frank Driskill
I love anything Van Morrison for weddings: Ball & Chain (ha!), Into the Mystic, Crazy Love.
He's my favorite.
also, a little current nod to Black Eyed Peas and Tonight's Gonna be a Good Night, it will get people dancing!
