Dustin's musical life has always been about the saxophone. I have always fantasized about a string quartet. Neither of us was happy with the other. SO we had to compromise! Piano makes us both happy, so we are going to have a pianist (Dr. Adams, a piano professor from WCU) and a vocal soloist (Courtney Umphlett, an SAI sister). Done!
Dustin was in charge of choosing music, but he couldn't seem to decide. We spent MONTHS picking this out, so I hope you enjoy. Feel free to look up some of the music on youtube!

What was the music for your wedding like???
Josh handled most of the music for our wedding (duh!). The pianist was the main pianist at Biltmore Baptist at the time & he & Josh played together a ton, so we told him to play "pretty stuff" at the beginning. Josh insisted I walk down the aisle to the wedding march because he'd played Canon in D so many times at weddings he swore it wouldn't be in his (I didn't care either way).
ReplyDeleteThen we had Justin Trull sing "Be Still & Know that He is God" & "Bless the Broken Road"
But most of all, Josh had a bass & a violinist there as well to play "I Will Be Here" which was a surprise for me. I knew he was going to sing a song, but had no idea which one. It was really sweet.
Then we left to a banjo playing "You are my sunshine"
