Stefania and Matteo’s wedding ceremony at St Mary’s Cathedral, July 28, 2012, violin and cello duo, Calgary AB

Stefania and Matteo’s wedding ceremony was traditional, refined and absolutely gorgeous! The music as well fit the style and mod of the ceremony just perfectly. The long aisle walk for the bridesmaids was set of and heightened by Bach’s Air, which is both graceful and flowing. The brides music was Pachelbel’s Canon in D, a perennial favorite at weddings, and performed by our violinist and cellist in an interesting and continually varied style, this too was also very flowing and really made the brides walk up the aisle something that the bride, groom and guests will always remember. For the signing of the documents, our musicians returned to the music of Bach performing the sedate and comforting Arioso. When the priest pronounced the bride and groom, the newly married couple walked down the aisle as husband and wife to Handel’s rousing and boisterous La Rejouissance.

Frank and Catherine’s wedding ceremony at Peninsula Ridge Winery, July 28, 2012, violin and cello duo, Beamsville ON

This ceremony was held under the beautiful apple trees at Peninsula Ridge Winery in beautiful Beamsville. In speaking with our clients they selected a fully classical playlist for the ceremony, but keeping the selections on the light and fresh side. Bach Air was gracefully performed as the bridesmaids made their way up to the front, followed by the rich and full sound of that wedding classic, Pachelbel’s Canon. After the vows and the rings, we performed Vivaldi’s Largo from the Four Seasons during the signing of the register. When the bride and groom were pronounced as husband and wife, we performed the up tempo Trumpet Tune by Purcell.
