Supposedly,
it was a Christian garden ceremony but because of the incoming typhoon the
couple decided to do it indoor and all guests were informed timely to start the
ceremony around 5pm inside the Colonial Hall of Fernbrook Gardens that typifies
golden splendor. Music prelude was performed by Augustine Music before the
rites began expecting some other guests. The wedding musicians kept playing until the ceremony started.
The
first to enter was an American Pastor before the procession began. A relative
of the groom sang during the processional march and when the bride walked the
aisle, a popular
song as instrumental music was rendered by the
remarkable musicians of the Philippines. The wedding rites went so well and
some touching moments where the couple on their own words exchanged wedding
vows.
During
the lighting of the candle and signing of contract, Augustine Music performed
the most requested wedding music, “Canon in D”. It is the most popular music for weddings not only
Catholic weddings or Christian weddings but all rites where solemnity is called
for. Maybe, another composition will emerge and also become top wedding music
that can withstand the test of time like Canon in D that has been used for 150
years and it is still being used for weddings.
The
Multinational Baptist Church Choir took over during the pictorial as we
proceeded to the reception venue ready for our music when the guests were
received. The pictorial for thirty minutes and the guests kept coming as we
performed popular requested reception music.
The wedding
reception program started with the brother of the groom and the brother of the
bride hosting the program. There were some lull moments but wedding music from
wedding musicians filled them doing their favorites. Being young couple, their
wedding music list were of the popular foreign music without any Filipino
music. Well, that was their choice and being the performers must do what they
want with a little suggestion to music choices but still theirs prevail.
The
prepared wedding program went well and a little longer than expected but more
guests still stayed ready for the DJ for some dance music, also to enjoy the
myriad of colors scattered all around.
