Listen

This is not an exhaustive list, but a compilation of sound clips of commonly requested music for weddings. You are not limited to just the pieces listed in the repertoire, but rather, it is a springboard for ideas. I'd be happy to design a program specifically tailored to your event and needs. See playlists for a more detailed list of ideas.

ORIGINAL

These were original pieces written for wedding processionals. Make your wedding unique!

  • Cherish This piece has been used for the mothers' seating as well as the bridesmaids processional. Listen: Piano Listen: Harp
  • Always This piece was written for the bridesmaids processional. Each bridesmaid has her own melodic entrance. Listen: Piano
  • Pas d'Enfant This piece was written for three flower girls. The simple melody line is reminiscent of a quiet lullaby. Listen: Piano

MASH-UPS

Can't decide on just ONE song? Mix them up in a mash-up! Here's some examples of my own concoctions of original mash-ups, just to give you an idea of what can be done. The possibilities are up to you! (These original arrangements are not found played anywhere or by anyone else!)

If you have a number of favorite pieces, I can create a custom medley/mix/blend/mash-up for a unique wedding processional or recessional!

  • Bridal Chorus and O The traditional piece with a contemporary flair. Listen: Piano
  • Cal Song Mash-Up Rigaudon and the Cal Fight Song on the organ Listen: Organ
  • Patriotic Mash-Up Arranged by Alice and performed on July 4th 2004, as tribute to those who have served and a celebration of our freedom. See if you can recognize all 9 songs in this piece. Listen: Piano
  • Trumpet Tune and May the Force Be With You Used as the recessional, this classical piece was paired with a Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back melody. Listen: Piano
  • Wedding Mash-Up Arranged as a showcase of classical and sacred wedding songs, Alice is able to intertwine various melodies into one cohesive piece. Listen: Piano
