King's Brass - Ceremony, Prelude, Processional, Music During Service, Recessional & Cocktail Hour
Planning Your Ceremony
Some of the brides that contact us have extensive musical backgrounds. Most, however, know very little about classical music. Please do not feel intimidated! That's what we are here for! We can make suggestions or plan the entire ceremony for you.First of all, make use of all the resources available to you. Question friends and family who have planned a wedding before. If you are having your ceremony at a church, meet with the organist, music director or officiant at the church. They can be a wealth of knowledge. King's Brass will layout a traditional ceremony and some suggestions of pieces to have performed at each interval.
Recessional
You are now husband and wife! Let's celebrate! Set the tone as you and your bridal party walk back up the aisle.
