From burning up to freezing in the span of two weeks! This outdoor ceremony was held in the gardens of Henderson Castle in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The wind was blowing and rain was threatening, but the ceremony was able to continue as planned outdoors.
They had set up a tent with a dance floor for the DJ (dancing was back outside in the garden after dinner indoors), and it was the perfect place to place the harp - if the rain came, the music could continue! While you and your guests might be able to survive a slight drizzle, the harp is extremely sensitive, and would need to be covered and taken inside at the first drops. For outdoor weddings, a covered gazebo or tent is a great back-up!
The bride chose traditional music:
- Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (bridal party processional)
- Bridal Chorus (bride's processional)
- Trumpet Tune (recessional)
This was one where I had to sit on my hands during the service so my fingers wouldn't be stiff by the time I needed to play again!
