Kelsey and Jimmy- A Perfect Fusion of Musical Styles

July 24, 2016 Admin

 

One of our favorite things about being a part of people’s special day is being able to customize their music to fit their sense of style and taste.  Kelsey and Jimmy were a wonderful union of classic rock and indie music that helped create a memorable musical experience!

Kelsey and Jimmy met while attending The University of Texas at Austin.  They were in the same co ed organization and met at a retreat.  Kelsey needed someone to throw a football with and Jimmy hapilly volunteered.   4 years later, Jimmy proposed at the same spot and surprised Kelsey with a celebration that evening with their closest family and friends.   Their wedding took place on November 6 at Barr Mansion, on their 5 year dating anniversary.

They did an incredible job fusing their musical tastes together to create a playlist that flowed well together and that was very entertaining for their guests (and enjoyable for us to play).

Kelsey and Jimmy incorported many special moments in their wedding.  Cocktial hour was especially unique, because they chose to take part in it with their guests and enjoy our music.  It was a pleasure to see them have an absolute blast! 

Their advice for other couples who would like to choose more non traditional wedding music:
“Try to find YouTube recordings of music that you enjoy to see if there is a string arrangement available.”

“Terra Vista Strings can learn anything- so it gives you a lot of options on what you can do.”
