Below are audio previews of your ceremony music. You can share these with your wedding party to ensure smoothly flowing processionals.

1. Wedding Party: (1) If I Never Knew You  and  (2) Perfect. 

NOTE: If the entire wedding party enters to the first song and there is not enough time to play the second song, I will play the second song as part of the Postlude, after recessional.

2. Bride's Processional: Love of My Life

2. Recessional: Wedding March from Midsummer Night's Dream 

Tips for a Smooth, Stately, and Stunning Wedding Processional 

1.   If you reach the altar or arch before the music ends, don't worry! The music may continue a few measures to reach a graceful cadence. 

2.   The musician will "go silent" approximately 2 minutes before the first processional. If there is an unanticipated delay before start of ceremony, designate someone to inform the musicians. Be as specific as possible, i.e., "play 10 more minutes, " or "play two more songs." This will avoid awkward silences while your guests await your arrival.

3.    If the wedding party is entering from a place that is difficult to spot or out of view, you may wish to assign someone to approach the musician and inform them the ceremony is about to begin. That way, there will be no ambiguity.

4.    If possible, let the musician know what the officiant's last words will be before the recessional begins. Generally, it is the introduction of the new couple, but because this is not always the case, it's best to be certain. The musician may also check with the officiant if the opportunity is available before the ceremony.
