On May 22, 2016 in the afternoon, Megan and Taylor joined hands to be married at the Wightman Chapel on the Scarritt campus. Megan chose “I Dreamed a Dream” for the grandparents, mothers as well as the wedding party. It was fun to time the music in such a way as to bring in the grandparents and mothers to the first part of the song and then with a modulation up to increase the anticipation, bring in the men and bridesmaids. Megan chose “How Long Will I Love You” for her entrance.
There was much obvious electricity between Megan and Taylor who were so happy to be at the altar that one couldn’t help but smile at their exuberance. They wrote and spoke their own vows (very nice). During Communion for them a friend, Hillary Stenner and friends sang “We Dance”. Hillary and I figured out we had worked together several years earlier in the same chapel with us accompanying her. Violinist, Jocelyn Sprouse, was surprised to see a friend acting as the officiant. Old home week for the musicians.
Yet another nice touch to the music was the reprise of “How Long Will I Love You” in a more upbeat style. Jocelyn did justice to the fiddle break in the middle of the tune. Erika Wraley of Erika Wraley Events did a great job coordinating this wedding.
And finally congratulations are in order for Megan and Taylor and may they have many happy years together.
