Festival Friday - August 3rd
Another beautiful weekend planned to kickstart the month of August, and of course one of the biggest weekends in summer festivals… Lollapalooza! So in typical Friday fashion, I’m going to talk about how to survive the weekend but with a little twist to shake things up.
Whether you’re a die hard music fan with a 4-day pass, or someone like me who prefers to get all her jams in one day, there is something for everyone INCLUDING a little musical inspiration for the BIG DAY.
Here’s a list of our top 5 Artists this weekend and how to incorporate them into your wedding!
