Kory and Michael had a beautiful and heartfelt ceremony at the historic Barrelhouse at Zorn in Michigan City. It’s so convenient to have ceremony and reception at the same venue, and the whole complex gave them many options for outdoor photos as well!
As guests arrived and found their seats, the harp prelude music filled the room with classical and jazz pieces. Since they had a small wedding party, they opted to have the same piece, “Canon in D” by Pachelbel, for the flower girl, ring bearer, and grooms. When couples go this route, I reserve the faster, more majestic variation for their entrance. There’s a reason it’s such a popular piece for weddings!
For the unity ceremony, the grooms combined beach glass they had collected in Florida and sealed an anniversary box containing wine and love letters to each other. While this was going on, I played “Perfect” by Ed Sheeran. The recessional was “Can’t Help Falling in Love.”
Yes, I fully support LGBTQ+ couples and love playing for their weddings! Whether your musical tastes lean towards classical or contemporary, we can work together to create the perfect playlist for your ceremony that incorporates your favorite pieces and those that are meaningful to you.
