I just received these beautiful pictures of Heidi and Brian’s July 10 wedding at the Red Clover Inn in Mendon <\/a>from photographer Don Landwehrle<\/a>. In addition to wedding photography, Don also does some beautiful nature photography, with work currently on display at the Robert Paul Gallery<\/a>. You can also check his web site here<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0the blog<\/a> he shares with his wife, Karen (also linked above).<\/p>\n

The week prior to Heidi and Brian’s wedding was the hottest of summer weeks, with temperatures in the 90s every day. So the rain that fell with the incoming cold front that morning was very welcome relief from the heat. As\u00a0we approached\u00a0the ceremony time, the very light sprinkles were intermitent and decreasing, leaving only a lightness and coolness in the air before the ceremony, with rain completely stopped for the duration (it’s really uncanny how often that happens at weddings…).<\/p>\n

One of the highlights of the ceremony was Heidi’s mom’s reading of “I Like You” by Sandol Stoddard. As she explained before the reading, Heidi had gone back and forth about the choice of reading, considering Shakespeare and\u00a0Mark Twain, among others. She happened upon this story on the internet and when she mentioned it to her mom, she said “Oh I think I have that book.” I had a brief chat with Heidi’s mom after the ceremony and got a fuller story. She had apparently given the book to her own husband just a few months before they were married – she showed me the inscription inside the book she had written to her husband – Heidi’s dad – many years ago. Heidi had no\u00a0prior knowledge\u00a0of the book, but coincedently happened upon it, via the internet, and decided she liked it.<\/p>\n

I love these stories – it’s one of the greatest things about playing at weddings!<\/p>\n

\u00a0Heidi and Brian chose “Turidae” flute\/violin duo, with my daughter Mariah\u00a0on violin,\u00a0for their ceremony and cocktail hour. There were many emails exchanged back and forth\u00a0to decide on which duo and on specific musical selections.<\/p>\n

Heidi had played oboe in high school, and had fond memories of playing the Allegro from Bach’s\u00a0\u00a0“Brandenburg Concerto #2”, which she\u00a0chose for her recessional. She\u00a0really wanted to go a non-traditional route in other music choices as well. After exchanging\u00a0many emails and YouTube videos, Heidi selected Bach’s “Trio Sonata in G” originally for 2 flutes and harpsichord for the wedding party processional, and Brahms’ “St. Anthony Chorale” for her processional. They also had a special moment during the wedding – a tree watering ceremony, where both Heidi and Brian watered their new tree from two pitchers. During the tree watering, they requested Loeillet’s “Adagio” from Sonata No. 1.<\/p>\n

Before the ceremony, Heidi let me in on the secret that she and Brian had been taking dance lessons, unknown to any of their guests. When cocktail hour ended, and the DJ took over with the microphone and the music, one of the first events was Heidi and Brian’s first dance – a merengue – pictured below.<\/p>\n
