Wedding Music, Amanda & Colan
This was one of my top favorite client made playlists of the year. Not only did it represent the couple’s style and suited the venue, but their demographic ate it up too. Colan really put some thought into this for sure, well done sir! One of the special touches I liked the most is the use of the same song for processional and final dance alone, but by two different artists.
