Today's work is definitely a meaningful one.
The weather was horrid and cold, but we were blessed coz we were asked to play in a room that looks like a church rather than on the lawn.
The Garden Hotel was beautiful and classy.
After changing, we were brought into the exquisite room full of white roses and I could see they were rehearsing when we walked in.
There were the Father, the translator and the bridegroom & the bride.
They turned and smiled at us and the bride actually bowed to us 90 degree.
I was like, wow, and then I realised the couple were Japanese. :)
That was why they were so courteous. ^^
The Father was a French, and he went up to us and shook our hands.
So the ceremony began, and we played the wedding piece as the bridegroom walked down the aisle step by step, with the bride following after he finished his journey down the aisle.
It was a beautiful view, and it was the first time I witnessed a Christian wedding.
An amazing sight, indeed.
The Father started to speak in French and translated into Japanese by a Chinese lady from the hotel.
The bride & the bridegroom just kept on smiling and nodding while 3 of us had no single idea what they were saying.
It was a small and exquisite wedding, with about 10 plus relatives sitting on the rows of benches.
Some of them taking pics non-stop and 2 of them video-ing while the parents looked blissful and I saw the father of the bride was going to cry. O.o
After the exchange of the ring, the couple kissed and turned towards the relatives to say something.
I believed the bridegroom had said something really touching and when it was the bride's turn to say something, she couldn't utter anything coz she was too overwhelmed.
I had to admit I had the urge to cry when I watched the scene, I could see some relatives looking all teary as well.
We played Haydn's Serenade and ended with Mozart. :)
Everyone thanked us afterwards and according to them, they said we had made the wedding so special and touching.
Wow, and I was glad we did, really.
It was just awesome.

Before changing into my clothes.
This was the 3rd floor while the wedding was at the 2nd. :)
The place for the bride and bridegroom to get ready and the place for me to change my clothes. XD
I got a whole room for myself. Nice.

He's a really talented violinist.
You just name any concerto you want to listen to and he can just play it out of memory, no sweat.
Damn scary man.
