So for the ceremony (violin) if you could start playing for the guests at 13.40. The ceremony starts at 2pm and will finish around 2.30pm. After the ceremony if you could start playing the piano after we have thrown confetti that would be lovely.

We have finally chosen the songs to be played during the ceremony.

For me walking down the aisle could you please play Elvis Presley - Can't help falling in love.

Walk in: Dawn from Pride and Prejudice
Signing: Claire de Lune by Debussy and Jasmin Flower (the Chinese folk song)

Walk out: Orchestral Suite No 3 in D, BWV1068: II Air (Bach) (Air on the G String)

- Dawn or Mrs Darcy from the Pride and Prejudice movie > these two are about the same but Mrs Darcy is slightly longer but with more instruments whereas it seems that Dawn is the opening credit and a piano version. We have quite a long way to go for me to walk down the aisle (all the way from the back of the room to the front of the divinity school) so would love to hear your thoughts on how either these two will work for me to walk down the aisle with

- Reverie (Debussy)

- Claire De Lune (Debussy) - was thinking this one for the signing

- Arabesque (Debussy) - was thinking this one for the signing or somewhere else suitable during the ceremony

- Liebestraum (Liszt)

- Peer Gynt Suite No.1 Op.46 (Grieg)

- Orchestral Suite No.3 in D Major BWV1068:II Air (Bach) - we were thinking of walking out of the room together with this song (we are going out the way i walk in so quite a long way)

- Nessun Dorma (opera song but is it possible to do a piano version?)

- Con te partiro (opera song but is it possible to do a piano version?)

- September Song (Agnes Obel) - perhaps during the drinks reception?

- Turning Page (Instrumental version by Sleeping at last) - perhaps also during the drinks reception

- Nuvole Bianche (Ludovico Einaudi)

- I giorni (Ludovico Einaudi)

- Plus Tot

The below are songs with singing normally but would it be possible to do piano versions?

- I will follow you into the dark (Death Cab for Cutie)

- What a wonderful world (Louis Armstrong)

- Can't help falling in love (Elvis)

September 2019, Olde Bell Barn

We're getting married in the barn at 2pm, and would like music as our guests arrive and for the ceremony. I was then thinking I would like background music throughout the meal, so timings would technically be 2-6pm approx (it wouldnt be needed during speeches etc!). Is that fairly normal for the weddings you've done previously?

We've done a little bit of research into the type of music we like and we're thinking of some jazz like Bill Evans 'Like someone in love' for the ceremony. Do you think that would work with just piano or would we need a bassist?

Happy to have anything in a similar style throughout drinks and dinner - whatever you recommend :)

All the things you are - jerome kern/oscar hammerstein

Sophisticated lady - duke ellington

Prelude to a kiss - duke ellington

April in paris - vernon duke/e.y harburg

The very though of you - ray noble

Im old fashioned - jerome kern/ johnny mercer

Poor butterfly - raymond hubbell/ john golden

Misty - Erroll Gerner/ Johnny mercer

All the things you are - jerome kern/ oscar hammerstein

Ive grown accustomed to her face - lerner / loewe

Tangerine - Schertzinger / mercer

As time goes by - hupfeld

Long ago (and far away) - kern/ gershwin

Every time we say goodbye - cole porter
