An Everlasting Love

Saturday evening The String Group played for a wedding ceremony at Riverside United Methodist Church. Our trio enjoyed playing in this church's sanctuary; stained glassed windows beautifully brought in the setting sun's natural light and the acoustics filled the room with the trio's performances of many traditional wedding favorites.
After a prelude of classical music the grandparents, parents of the bride and groom came down to How Beautiful, a special arrangement for The String Group per the request of the bride and her family. The bridal party made their way into the ceremony to the familiar sounds of Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring and the Bride came down her aisle to Canon in D with a bridal fanfare. During a special scripture reading of John 4, the groom's pastor spoke of his admiration for the bride and groom while the trio and piano softly played The String Group's arrangement of Be Thou My Vision. The bride, groom and wedding party planned a surprise recessional, choreographed to the exciting R&B melodies of Natalie Cole's debut single This Will Be (an Everlasting Love). The trio ended the ceremony with a guest postlude of Hornpipe, Trumpet Tune and Rondeau.'
