Taryn and I have been giving a lot of thought to what we’re going to do for our first dance. I’ve decided not to put on here what we decide (you have to have some surprises!), so instead I’m going to show some entertaining clips of others’ first dances. I think you’ll like this one.
I’m very excited about the music for our wedding. We’re pretty sure we’re going to have a live band instead of a DJ. We’re going to go with Tuxedo Junction, which was created by a former high school band director that goes to my church. Taryn’s family always has at least one polka played at their weddings because they have some kind of polish background amidst the German and Italian. Tuxedo Junction has a few polkas on their playlist, but one in particular that I know Taryn likes is the “Beer Barrel Polka.” Listen to the first song in the following video if you want to hear what it sounds like!
I just read an article about a lady in Missouri who posed as a 16 year old boy and was involved in an internet romance. The romance ended and the girl who was dating the “boy” was so distraught that she killed herself. As if that’s not sad enough, this isn’t the first time that I’ve heard of this type of situation. The same thing happened in the Cincinnati area a few months ago. I think what these people have done is terrible. Adults need to act like adults and kids need to stop looking to the internet for romance. When you’re a little older and you’ve been on the dating scene for a while, then the internet makes logical sense, but not when you’re a teenager; you haven’t even had time to figure out your dating style.
