Fort Wayne Harpist ~ Wedding Ceremony at St. John's Lutheran Church

Cary and Amber's wedding day started with a bit of hitch.  Unfortunately, the bride forgot her slip, which caused a delay.  No worries for the guests, because the harpist came more than prepared to provide enough prelude music while they waited for the ceremony to begin!

Once everyone was in place and set to go, I began by playing "Til There Was You" from The Music Man for the entrance of the families.  The bridesmaids' entrance was accompanied by "Can't Help Falling in Love."  For the bride's entrance, she came down the aisle to "Canon in D."


During the ceremony, I played "Unchained Melody" for the lighting of the unity candle.  I played the Etta James song "At Last" for the bride and groom as they recessed down the aisle for the first time as a married couple.

Even with the delayed start, I still had more than enough music for postlude as the guests were excused.  Both the prelude and postlude included a mix of classical and pop music, including songs such as "Your Song" by Elton John, "Love Story" by Taylor Swift, and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" from The Wizard of Oz.
