My first June wedding was at the Blue Heron at Blackthorn in South Bend, Indiana. Unfortunately, there are no pictures because the wind was so strong I couldn’t let go of the harp to take any! The colors were dark chocolate and red, and the ceremony was performed by Kerri Hoffman. Music selections included:
- Bridal party processional: “Only Time” by Enya
- Bride’s processional: “Canon in D” by Pachelbel
- Recessional: “Fields of Gold” by Sting
It was a perfect combination of traditional music and contemporary songs! There is no rule that you have to be consistent with your music genres throughout your ceremony. It’s fine to mix popular and classical songs, as long as your musicians are comfortable with the pieces you have selected. Visit my Repertoire List to see some of the possibilities!
