A Huge Life Changing Gig

Two posts in one day! What happened to Shelly Hacco? Here's what happened. Shelly Hacco is gone; she's dead. Who's this in her place? Shelly Hacco SNELLMAN. Yup. I got some fool to marry me. What a sucker. :)

So this post is totally unrelated to anything "industry-wise" but if I can't post about my own wedding on my own blog then... I don't know what but yeah. I hope this explains my silent year up until now. Planning a wedding is HARD! Believe the hype. I don't THINK I bridezilla'ed on my friends, family, and/or fiance, but I suppose I should let them verify that. It was all worth it though because I had the wedding of my dreams and now I have a hubby of my very own.

Honestly, the biggest stress factor gnawing on me toward the end was the processional dance down the aisle. Being performers, Jason and I had to do something special for the ceremony, and we knew it had to involve Michael Jackson. I'm a huge fan to the king but I'm nothing in comparison to my husband. To Jason, Michael is everything that is right in the world. To me, Jason's pure love is everything that's right in the world. We talked about "The Dance" for a year but it was so hard getting everyone together to practice. With most of the party living out of state, we had to resort to video tutorials. Anna Safar, one of my bridesmaids and my brilliant choreographer, was so patient, so flexible, and so understanding of the fact that this was SO IMPORTANT. In the end though, our band of wacky friends pulled it off and I am forever thankful. See below!



The rest of the wedding went something like this! Thank you Light Up Video for your superb moment capturing skillz.
