About Me: I didn't think I'd be "that girl," but I am having so much fun planning our wedding (mostly by myself). I'm a PR and Marketing Director for a major jazz festival and camp by day, and by night, a romantic jazz singer and bride-to-be! I hope all my research can help other brides in their planning.
Family Connections… Part II
September 30th, 2007 @ 3:58 pm by Mrs. Onion
As I mentioned in a previous post, we shared a photo slide show with our guests at the reception and it was very well received. I think our families enjoyed seeing childhood photos of both of us as well as photos of themselves (we had a photo of almost every single guest). After the historic and childhood photos we moved on to photos of us with our friends and family during our courtship, and finally some engagement photos. Enjoy!

I would highly recommend the photo slide show. It’s very personal and a great break in the evening. We didn’t have a “dancing hour” per se, so we showed the video while people were eating their cake toward the end of the evening. It was a great diversion. I narrated a bit as we went along and it made people laugh. Definately on my list of “Things we did right!”
