This weekend we played a beautiful outdoor ceremony at Haverstraw Bay County Park in West Haverstraw New York. It was the first outdoor ceremony of the year. The weather was as perfect as it could be with blue sky and 70 degrees. It overlooks the Haverstraw Bay which is just north of the Tappan Zee bay (Tappan and Haverstraw are both Native tribes or at least the name they were given by European Colonialization in the 17th century)
There was a priest who was oversaw the ceremony and was quite entertaining…I will have to get his name! Here is some of the music that was played for the ceremony:
Procession of Grandmother, Mother of Bride, Parents of Groom, and 3 bridesmaids – MANDOLIN RAIN
Procession of Bride – BLACKBIRD
Recessional – STARLIGHT (MUSE)
For the prelude:
Falling Slowly
Don’t Stop Believing
In My Life – Beatles
Over the Rainbow
You and Me – Lifehouse
Yellow – Coldplay
Unchained Melody
I Dreamed a Dream
Can’t Help Falling in Love
