Music for all occasions - a wedding, reception, corporate
function.
Please refer to
the numbers in brackets on the repertoire list for
guidance on
music suitable for:
1. The
gathering of the congregation prior to the service.
2. Arrival
of the bride.
3. Signing
of the register. (As well as the popular classical choices, some
of the
modern
love songs work well at this point in the ceremony.)
4. Departure
of the bride and groom at the end of the service.
5. Drinks
reception.
6. During
the meal.
We will make
every effort to fulfil requests that are not on the list so long as notice of
at least a month is given.
