You are excited about live music for your
ceremony, but what music should you
choose?  Here is some help!

The Prelude
Usually starts 20 minutes prior to ceremony and will be continuous music for
your guests as they arrive.  
Prism Brass will perform a selection of Classical favorites.  It is not necessary for you
to set this part of the program.  We will put together a nice mix for you, but be sure to
let us know if there is any special music you would like to hear!

The Seating of the Families
This where your unique musical tastes will begin to shape the mood of your
ceremony.  Popular choices are pieces which are lyrical and a bit
sentimental.
Some options are:
Bach, Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring
Pachelbel, Canon
Handel, Were're you Walk


Entrance of the Bridesmaids
The dearest friends of the bride should be presented by beautiful, slightly
celebratory music that builds to processional.  The above pieces are
popular, as are:
Bach, Air on the G String
Bach, Bist du Bei Mir
Haydn, Emperor's Hymn

Bridal Processional
The entrance of the bride is truly a moment to be both heralded and savored!
 Choose a bright fanfare to celebrate your joyful day!  There are many
choices, most of which make great recessionals as well:
Mouret, Rondeau
Clarke, Trumpet Voluntary
Charpentier, Te Deum
Handel, La Rejoussaince from Royal Fireworks
Stanley, Trumpet Voluntary
and of course the more traditional
Wagner, Bridal Chorus

Lighting of the Unity Candle
At the moment when two become one, many couples choose very traditional,
sacred favorites, such as:
Schubert, Ave Maria
Franck, Panis Angelicus
Some non-sacred and beautiful choices are:
Vaughn-Williams, Vow to the
Traditional, Simple Gifts
Schumann, Traumerei ("Dreaming")

Communion, Offertory, or other Musical Moments
Choose something soft and meditative for these more reflective moments.  
How about:
Bach, Sheep May Safely Graze
MacDowell, To a Wild Rose

Recessional
This should be joyous!  Popular celebratory exits for the new couple are:
Beethoven, Ode to Joy
Handel, Allegro Maestoso from Water Music
Purcell, Trumpet Tune
Brahms, March from Symphony No. 1
Mendelssohn, Wedding March
Handel, And the Glory of the Lord, from Messiah
Handel, La Paix, from Music for the Royal Fireworks

Or, for an experience that is truly unique to you, we can create a totally
customized program!  Still not sure? Don't hesitate to give us a call!  We can
