Save the Date: Come Dance with Us!

Right before the weekend, Douglas and I took a trip to the local US Postal Service office to ship out 70-something Save the Date CDs!  Luckily, we only ran into a few snags: 1 missing zip code, having to get back in line once, and an address that simply can't be found.  All in all, not a bad trip.

We were surprised and excited to learn that some folks received their mail as early as Saturday!  We were also able to hand deliver a good number of them due to the holiday.

So, without more rambling, I give to you, the Save the Date CD!

With the release of our STD CD also came the release of our wedding website - justajumptotheleft.com  We decided that a customized HTML would make it easier for folks to find.  We couldn't resist making it a reference.

Douglas was a trooper and ended up doing about a dozen or more versions of the CD until we were both happy.  Our lives have extensive soundtracks, so we could have burned an anthology!  We were finally able to narrow the selection down and included songs that have some significance to us as a couple or to one of us individually. I promised you guys trivia, so I'll provide some of the backstories to the tracks in the next post.  Here's a teaser:

Soundtrack available at Amazon.com

 

Track 1

The Universal Theme

by Nigel Godrich
from Scott Pilgrim vs. The World

Significance/Story: The theme music to Universal Movie Studios but done in the style of old school Nintendo video game music.  Movie + 8 bit music = happy geeks.
