When Carolyn Wonderland (local singer/songwriter) announced her wedding plans to tie the knot with A.

But Janis charged right up there!

Janis might have gotten a photo of Michael Nesmith, but it's probably enough if I just tell you he looks exactly like LBJ!
Here's a photo from the Austin Chronicle:
And what does one wear to an outdoor wedding in Austin? Pretty much anything you like.
