Pachelbel's Caribbean Cannon

Travel Cello
 When is a wedding not a wedding?  Well, when it's a vow renewal.  Or, it's in the Caribbean!  I found myself on an unlikely instrument, the violin, in this unlikely setting.

Rewedded and Cruising!
Unlike a Boston wedding, the wedding coordinator did not write a contract, discuss music choices, cues or set-up time.   Nor, did she address attire, duration or content.  There were no guests or formal reception! The gazebo was set above a sandy smile of beach open to admiring onlookers and hungry seagulls.

I found myself alone with the rewedded as they enjoyed a moment after the ceremony and before the sunset cruise.   The couple was treated to appetizers and a full-size Red Velvet wedding cake.  I diligently worked my way through Pachelbel's Canon until I was asked to stop and join them for the cake.

  1. You certainly know how to go with the flow Liz. I like the "Stop playing and eat cake" part. The Canon Cannon is pretty good too. xo
