This bride knew exactly what she wanted for her walk down the aisle: “Walk in a Room” by Muscadine Bloodline.

The only problem? There wasn’t an arrangement available for string trio. So, we created one specifically for her ceremony.

Our violin, viola, and cello brought her song to life as she made her bridal entrance at High Point Country Club in High Point, NC—making an already personal moment even more meaningful.

One of our favorite parts of what we do is helping couples incorporate music that actually means something to them, even when it isn’t already in our repertoire.
