Trio with Trumpet Peformance

On Saturday afternoon, The String Group provided ceremony music for a wedding held at TPC Sawgrass. Weddings held at TPC are always spectacular and adding the trumpet to our trio's performance really put this ceremony over the top!

The String Group was more than happy to arrange One Hand, One Heart from Westside Story to be played right before the ceremony began! This song was played at the mother of the bride's wedding and we enjoyed adding this special touch to their wedding day! The parents and grandparents then came into Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring. As a special arrangement, Canon in D was played for the bridal party processional and the bridal entrance! This arrangement flows well and makes for a very dramatic build up to the bridal fanfare. After the trio softly played the beginning of Canon in D for the bridesmaids and flower girls, David transitioned the group to a bridal fanfare for a dramatic Bridal Entrance with all the musicians playing the chorus of Canon in D. During the ceremony, the officiant led the couple to a sand ceremony where the trio played Twilight and Mist from Legends of the Falls. The ceremony ended with a recessional of The Wedding March and a guest postlude of Hornpipe. After the ceremony, Jody and Hannah played for the cocktail hour.



We enjoyed working to make this wedding ceremony all the bride and groom had wished for
and send them our congratulations!
