Stacy & Alec will never forget their anniversary ~ February 29th! Even though Leap Day fell on a Wednesday this year, they chose the memorable date to gather with family and friends and celebrate. The venue for the entire event was Naper Settlement in Naperville, Illinois. The ceremony took place in the Century Memorial Chapel, then the reception followed just a short walk away in the Pre-Emption House Tavern.
Century Memorial Chapel was built in 1864, and was relocated to Naper Settlement in 1970. It's a beautiful venue for a wedding! The ceremony got started a little behind schedule due to a left-behind flower girl dress, but I just kept the prelude music going until the officiant let me know that everyone was ready to begin. The families and bridal party all entered to Pachelbel's "Canon in D," and Stacy chose the traditional "Here Comes the Bride" for her processional.
During the ceremony, the couple surprised their parents by presenting them with roses as I played "The Prayer" from Quest for Camelot. After the vows and ring exchange, the couple lit the unity candle to "Winter" from Vivaldi's The Four Seasons. The recessional was "Trumpet Tune," which sent guests out of the chapel and over to the reception.
Guests enjoyed appetizers and cocktails in the Tavern of the Pre-Emption House. This building also serves as the visitor center for Naper Settlement museum village, and is a re-construction of the original 1834 building. As everyone gathered, I played a variety of popular, Broadway, and Irish folk songs.
