The selections listed here are frequently requested pieces and can be used as a guide. We will help you customize your ceremony with music which you choose.

Prelude:

Music is played by the quartet to set the mood for the ceremony while your guests are being seated. We work with you to make the music and mood uniquely yours. Generally, the prelude begins 15 minutes prior to the announced starting time of your wedding.

Seating Parents:

The wedding ceremony usually starts with the seating of the parents.  The bridal party
should be ready to enter as well. 

Processionals:

Two to three pieces of music are usually selected for the processional.  The parents begin the processional, usually with their own music. They are followed by the wedding party which enters to a second piece of music, and the bride enters with a separate selection.  These groupings can also be combined.  The following is a list of some favorite processionals:

Trumpet Tune ~ Purcell
Bridal Chorus (Here comes the bride) ~ Wagner
Trumpet Voluntary ~ Purcell
Canon in D ~ Pachelbel
Jesu Joy of Man´s Desiring ~ Bach
