Fairy Queen
Listener Submission: Most Unusual Wedding
Music Story
Rick and I love Celtic music, and I could not possibly use
the same-old, same-old (as lovely as Vivaldi and Pachelbel
are). So, I finally chose for the procession Clannad's "Fairy
Queen" with my attendants walking through tulle-covered
white fairy lights in the garden. It turned out to be exactly
the effect I wanted. For my part of the procession I chose
a wonderful Renaissance-sounding piece from Adrian Wagner's
Holy Spirit and the Holy Grail CD titled "Mary
Magdalene." It was dramatic and highly meaningful for
myself and my sister, who almost fainted when she found out
I was using it.
The only piece left was our recessional, which we chose Huey
Lewis' "Happy To Be Stuck With You," which has been
as close to being "our song" as any other after
our 17-year courtship.
