Our violin and cello music perfectly complimented this elegant summer mountain wedding ceremony! The morning rain temporarily clear away, just in time for us to play a prelude of classical and romantic contemporary music.

The entire ceremony site was so beautiful, with mountain views in the background, and so many luxurious roses lining the aisle and wedding arch. Our live music lent a traditional touch and timeless feel to this Texas couple’s special day.

In keeping with the traditional feel, the bride chose Pachelbel’s Canon in D for her wedding party, followed by the romantic “A Thousand Years” from Twilight for her own walk down the aisle. We played Bach’s Arioso during the sand pouring ceremony. Then, we veered a little off the traditional path, and played “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” for the recessional. It was the perfect song choice for the mountain setting!
