Pamela & Anthony

Congratulations to Pamela and Anthony on their marriage! Pamela and Anthony were married on Saturday, July 25 in a beautiful outdoor wedding ceremony at Oak Ridge Bed and Breakfast in Oak Ridge, North Carolina. They were married in front of a stunning white gazebo surrounded by beautiful gardens. For the prelude, I performed a variety of classical selections, including Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring by Bach, First Arabesque by Debussy, and Andante from Violin Sonata No.2 by Bach. I performed The Nightingale by Henson-Conant for the seating of the mothers, Sheep May Safely Graze by Bach for the entrance of the bridal party and Canon in D by Pachelbel for the entrance of the bride. During the ceremony, I performed The Prayer by Sager/Foster for the lighting of the unity candle. For the recessional, Pamela and Anthony wanted something completely different to get their guests energized for the reception. Pamela and Anthony had one of their groomsman (whom happened to be deejay) set up a laptop and sound system next to the harp before the ceremony. My job (for the recessional) was to press the "play" button at the appropriate exit time. Their friend had set up a mix of 1, 2, 3, 4 by The Plain White T's. It was so much fun and absolutely adorable! If you haven't heard this song it has the sweetest lyrics. It was completely perfect for Pamela and Anthony! Afterwards, I played a short postlude on the harp as guests proceeded to the reception under a beautiful white tent. I had so much fun being a part of Pamela and Anthony's beautiful outdoor wedding ceremony (and of course playing deejay)! Congratulations again to this beautiful couple on their gorgeous July wedding!
