Christina & Jason were married on the first Saturday of June at the Happy Days Lodge in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Located between Cleveland and Akron, it's not only a beautiful venue, but convenient for guests traveling from anywhere in northeast Ohio!
The wedding had a bit of a delay starting, as they were waiting on one of the trolleys that was shuttling guests to the ceremony from the hotel. No problem - I just kept the prelude going until all everyone arrived! It also rained for a couple of minutes, but there is a screened-in room right next to the ceremony site where I was able to keep the harp dry as the clouds passed over. Since it is screened, I was able to keep playing, and you could still hear the harp from where the guests were seated. Once it was clear, it was a quick move back outdoors before the ceremony began.
"Prelude in C" by Bach was chosen for the entrance of the families, bridal party, and the couple's dog, Max. The bride's processional was "Canon in D" by Pachelbel. Following the ceremony, I played "King William's March" and "Pavane Style Renaissance" as everyone went inside for the reception.
If you are planning a wedding in Cleveland, Akron, or Canton, I'd love to be your harpist! Visit my website ~ Ohio Wedding Harpist ~ for more information and to request a quote for your day.
