I knew this wedding would be beautiful when Nicole told me her plans! It was in the Conrad Hotel ballroom in downtown Indianapolis, and she had put together a stellar list of vendors to make it all come together. It was a traditional Jewish ceremony, but the music they chose had a definite modern twist:
- Prelude concluded with Erev shel shoshanim
- Hymne by Vangelis (entrance of families & bridal party processional)
- Storybook Love from The Princess Bride (bride’s processional)
- Fields of Gold (recessional)
Sometimes the best place to set up the harp is behind your guests. It is also easier and more unobtrusive for me to get cues from your officiant or planner. The set-up in the Conrad ballroom works perfectly this way! It enabled me to keep a close eye on the door the bridal party was using for their entrance, and the planner could speak to me about cues and timing without the guests even noticing.
