Top Ten Wedding Tunes<\/a><\/h3>\n

Glenda Clwyd<\/em><\/p>\n

As the title suggests, this collection has a bunch of great wedding favorites. From “Canon in D” to Purcell\u2019s “Trumpet Tune,” and “Flower Duet,” these pieces are versatile for all parts of a wedding ceremony. I really enjoy the arrangement of Mendelssohn\u2019s \u201cWedding March\u201d recessional in this collection.<\/p>\n

Twilight<\/a><\/h3>\n

Meg Robinson<\/em><\/p>\n

This peppy solo makes a great alternative to traditional recessionals or a great postlude piece\u2014it\u2019s upbeat and fun as guests move along to cocktail hour.<\/p>\n

A Thousand Years<\/a><\/h3>\n

Michelle Whitson Stone<\/em><\/p>\n

Only requested about EVERY OTHER WEDDING, if you don\u2019t have this in your gig book, you\u2019ll want to add it now! It\u2019s one of my top-requested songs for the bridal party to come down the aisle. This arrangement falls nicely in your hands.<\/p>\n

Distant Valley<\/a><\/h3>\n

Kirsten Agresta Copely<\/em><\/p>\n

Short and sweet, this little tune works really well for wedding ceremonies! It\u2019s a great option for a bride who wants something different, and it also makes a great short solo when you\u2019re asked to play an interlude or during a special part of the ceremony like lighting of the unity candle.<\/p>\n

At The River<\/a><\/h3>\n

Sunita Staneslow<\/em><\/p>\n

Four beautifully arranged hymns come in this collection. I only knew two of the hymns by melody, but the two I didn\u2019t are absolutely gorgeous and perfect for wedding preludes or a hymn prayer time. The popular \u201cWhen Peace Like a River\u201d also known as \u201cIt Is Well With My Soul\u201d is a wedding favorite, too.<\/p>\n

Jesu, Joy of Man\u2019s Desiring<\/a><\/h3>\n

Meinir Heulyn<\/em><\/p>\n

This is my favorite arrangement of this wedding classic by Bach! I use it most often for bridal parties or mothers coming down the aisle.<\/p>\n

Everywhere<\/a><\/h3>\n

Nadia Birkenstock<\/em><\/p>\n

This meditative piece is so pretty! It would make a great entrance piece for mothers and grandmothers, or make a nice addition to prelude repertoire.<\/p>\n

Alla Hornpipe<\/a><\/h3>\n

Stephanie Bennett<\/em><\/p>\n

Somehow I was just recently requested this classic for the first time. I wish I had had this arrangement at the time! This is from Handel\u2019s famous Water Music<\/em>\u00a0and is a great recessional with the \u201cwow\u201d factor post kiss!<\/p>\n

Gentle Spirit<\/a><\/h3>\n

Barbara Semmann<\/em><\/p>\n

This collection of seven solos is perfect for prelude music! Each piece is sweet and ethereal, yet interesting in melody and harmony.<\/p>\n

Perfect<\/a><\/h3>\n

Michelle Whitson Stone<\/em><\/p>\n

One of the newest songs brides are requesting\u2014Ed Sheeran seems to be the king of love songs these days. I\u2019ve used this song for brides, bridal parties, and prelude music. It\u2019s a great investment for your wedding gig book!<\/p>\n

Arrival of the Queen of Sheeba<\/a><\/h3>\n

Katherine Thomas<\/em><\/p>\n

Another recessional option! I just recently was asked to play this one for the first time and was so glad to come across this version. It is a bit long, but that is great for large wedding parties. Thomas has versions for both lever or pedal harp.<\/p>\n
