You
remember them with the Memory Candle. Why not remember them with
music as well? Recently, two sets of grandparents were
remembered as the mothers of the bride and groom walked down the
aisle. "Embraceable You" was followed by "Dream A
Little Dream of Me". ( This beautiful wedding was held at
Magnolia Gardens in Springdale).
* * * * * One bride wanted the violin solo from "Rush, Rush" (sung by Paula Abdul), to be part of her ceremony. I combined that with "Trumpet Voluntary" to make a very unique entrance for her at Cooper Chapel in Bella Vista. * * * * * A Grand Opening for a shop in Bentonville allowed me to stroll between the rooms playing standards and some Celtic. * * * * * A wedding on a trail in Devils Den State Park was a lot of fun when I played all types of fiddle music (including some Celtic and bluegrass), and also some standards. * * * * * A wedding in Cooper Chapel with a mixture of the standards and Celtic music for the prelude . . . Bits of Vivaldi's Spring when the groom walked in, and Bach's Concerto in A minor when the bride walked in . . . Embraceable You for the unity candle lighting . . . And a hoedown as the newlyweds left the chapel! What a fun mixture of music that was! * * * * * A reception with Scottish music (following a wedding ceremony with a Scottish twist), on the square in Lincoln, Arkansas. * * * * * Bell Gable Chapel in Fayetteville has hosted beautiful weddings with traditional music, as well as a celtic wedding.
