Here you will find a list of the most commonly requested pieces
of music for Wedding Ceremonies. There is a reason for this; they are well loved and they work! We encourage you
to start with these.
Other pieces are of course possible, so feel free to ask! Part of your free consultation
is to really find out what you like and to develop the most appropriate program for your Special Day.
You can also listen to quite a few of these pieces on this page.
You will be hearing the premier Bellissima String Quartet performing for a Ceremony in Santa Fe’s historic Loretto Chapel.
For examples of recently performed Wedding Ceremony programs and program layout ideas, click here.
Remember, Trumpeters and Vocalists are also available for adding
that special touch of majesty and beauty!
