Emily's granda (only grandparent there) is the VIP
Giving grandma and all the parents boutonnieres and corsages so they will be easy to identify
Editing, Style & Composition Notes
Likes coverage of dancing, the "party aspect of it"
Some of the prep is cool
Not super focused on any one aspect on it
"Doesn't need to be super serious"
Wants "funny" "Party"
Kinda loose
Wants to see guests, the group, people interacting, lots of candid stuff
Music Notes
No country
Listen to "all sorts of music" – He likes folky music, jam bands, classic rock. Emily likes all of that, but also poppy stuff. Maybe stick more with jam, folky, alternative.
"Pieces that are sentimental, but overall more fun" "more on the fun side" upbeat/fun
Talked later about "funny" "party" – Good vibes music
