more about our elopement...the playlist

Music has played an important role in our relationship. During our first year together we were living in different parts of the country (I was in Winnipeg and Dave was in Banff) so there was an intense period of letter writing and mixed tapes were often included in the envelopes. This playlist includes songs that were on some of those mixed tapes as well as a cross section of music we've enjoyed together over the past 12 years.
