Have you always dreamed of your wedding?--the dress you'll be wearing on that wonderful day? Have you visualized the setting--the color of your flowers--your bridesmaids' dresses? When you let your imagination take you to that exciting time have you heard the sound of the music that will be playing at that very moment? Now at last your dream has come true and you're planning your once-in-a-lifetime day--your wedding day. Imagine the beautiful surroundings you've chosen. Perhaps you plan to be united in a garden setting, under a gazebo draped with romantic antique yellow and lavender roses. Graceful swans are floating gently on the lake beyond--your family and friends gathered in the garden on this perfect day. Or you might prefer the warm intimacy of a small home wedding. Whatever the setting, it has only been enhanced by the classic and elegant selections of music playing in the background as your guests arrive.
Just when everyone has been seated and there is the hush of anticipation, the sound of the Celtic flute introduces "The Wedding Song (There Is Love)", expressing the spirit and meaning of why you are all there. After this emotional moment, as the procession is about to begin, we hear the strains of the beautiful "Greensleeves". The wedding party is beginning to walk gracefully down the aisle. And then...it's the moment of your grand entrance - the highlight of the procession and of the wedding. The music is now at the height of emotion, enhancing this breathless gorgeous moment. For your entrance, perhaps you hear the traditional "Lohengrin" (Here Comes the Bride) or possibly a dignified orchestration of Pachelbel's "Canon in D". Just how will you decide? So many possibilities, so little guidance . . . until now. Finally, "How To Set Your Wedding To Music - The Complete Wedding Music Guide", and companion music CD, "Set Your Wedding To Music" has been created, especially for you.
We will help you plan the music for the wedding of your dreams, from your first romantic vision, to the very last dance.
