Playing music for a couple's wedding ceremony is always a special experience, and this summer I had the pleasure of playing my flute for a particularly wonderful couple. Their music selections perfectly captured the tone of the day, and the bright and sunny day and elegant venue matched their personalities so well!
As guests arrived, I greeted them with a selection of lively classical and contemporary pieces that set the mood for the joyful occasion. Despite being outdoors, my sound system added a concert hall like effect to my performance.
The processional pieces were particularly moving. Lady Gaga's "Shallow" and Bocelli's "Con Te Partiro" were both such fitting choices, and the emotions were palpable as the couple made their way down the aisle.
During the ceremony, I played an interlude of "Stand by Me" by Ben King, and it was a powerful moment, bringing tears to a few eyes.
As the ceremony concluded, I collaborated with the guitarist who would be playing for cocktails, and together we played "Clarity" by Vance Joy. This lively and upbeat piece had the guests smiling and clapping as the newlyweds walked back down the aisle.
From the Bride:
”Christen’s music gave a magic touch to the wedding’s ceremony. Christen was professional and easy to work with. I am glad I chose her to play at my wedding.”
