So I have always imagined having a string quartet playing during the ceremony. However, I really can't seem to justify the cost in the budget. I thought of even hiring just a string trio for just one hour for ceremony only, no cocktail hour but it still seemed too expensive. Especially since I had to also pay for speakers and microphone for the officiant with my DJ so included in that would be ceremony music too.
But I figure I could still have my DJ playing string quartet music. So here's the plan for the ceremony music so far.
Prelude
- Spring from the Four Seasons, Vivaldi
- Air from Water Music, Handel
- A Little Night Music, Mozart
- Meditation from "Thais", Massenet
Processional Songs
Mothers - Ave Maria, Schubert
Bridal Party - Canon in D, Pachebel
Bridal Entrance - Bridal Chorus, Wagner
Interlude Song
Unity Candle/Sand - Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring, Bach
Recessional Song - Wedding March, Mendelssohn
Do you think this is too traditional? What songs are you thinking of including in your ceremony?
