Wedding Ceremony Music
At most wedding ceremonies, couples will choose live music selections for the following:
Processional
Bride
Signing of the Registry
Recessional
In most cases, the bride walks down the aisle to a different piece of music than the processional, unless the bridal party is very small (e.g. if there is only one Maid of Honour and no bridesmaids). Some weddings also call for music for additional events such as the Lighting of the Unity Candle.
Victoria's wedding services include a completmentary no-obligation in-person consulation to help you find the most fitting music for your tastes. During your consulation, you will be invited to listen to live samples of various pieces as Victoria guides you through your choices. Couples are also always encouraged to bring along any special requests. Given appropriate time to prepare, Victoria is able to arrange and perform most melodies - no matter how unconventional!
