Thanks!

Re: The Official Ceremony Music Thread

WHile guests were sitting, keyboardist played standards.

Moms, BP, etc. - canon in D (this was chosen becuase my mom really wanted it, and it is pretty, done by keyboardist)

Me and my dad came down the aisle to an instrumental cover version of the Smiths song 'please, please, please let me get what I want' done by the Dream Academy. If you know Ferris Bueller really well, it is the song playing in the background when they are in the art museum. I am a big Smiths fan, and the music is beautiful. A handful of people recognized that it was a Smiths song which was cool, and it was also 'older relative-friendly' because it is so pretty. This was played on CD.

We recessed to the traditional 'da da da-dum dum dum dum' I forget what it is called.

Re: The Official Ceremony Music Thread

For those getting married in our church- can the organist play these traditional songs, like Canon D or do you need a string quartet to get the real sound?
