Our violin and cello duo performed a beautiful wedding ceremony and cocktail reception on the terrace at Copper Creek Golf Course in Vaughan. As the guests arrived before the ceremony, we set the tome by performing a great selection of classical music, continuing on to the ceremony itself with a traditional theme:
Wedding party processional: Bach Air on the G-string
Bride processional: Pachelbel Canon D
Signing: Bach-Gounod Ave Maria
Recessional: Clarke Trumpet Voluntary
One of the things that we really enjoy is being able to tailor the length of songs to fit the portions of the ceremony, and classical selections work very well to create a custom, seamless beginning and end to the various songs. As we transitioned from the ceremony to the cocktail hour we then started to play much more upbeat selections from our extensive pop repertoire. This is something that adds a really unique and exciting touch, having the strings play both classical and then great pop arrangements, and it is something that the bride, groom and their guests will always remember. Our thanks to photographer Samantha Ong for her beautiful work!
