Lindsay & Will

On a surprisingly not too hot of a June evening, Lindsay & Will were married. They were married in the backyard of a gorgeous historic house. It was such a small but beautiful wedding!

I was honored to be asked by Lindsay to take care of the music for the wedding. Ever since I was little she told me "you're playing the piano at my wedding!" But since it was an outdoor wedding, we had to go with the violin. I certainly did not want to play a solo, so I asked an old orchestra friend to play with me.

I've played the piano at several weddings, but never the violin. Rehearsal didn't go too well as far as timing, but everything went very smoothly at the actual wedding, thank goodness! Except for the fact that is was terribly humid and it was making our notes and strings sound terrible! I was not nervous at all, which I was kind of glad for!

Will & Lindsay & her little cousins. :)

Linds has always done tons with us... especially when we were younger. She had us over for sleepovers wherever she happened to be living....even in the midst of college she would take us to her ISU apartment with her, she took us ice skating, swimming, rollerblading, let me help as a "teacher" in the classroom.....and so much more that I'm probably forgetting. And then as we got older it turned into shopping trips to Chicago, and just a girls movie/pizza night. Sooo fun.

If you're reading this Linds, thanks for being such a nice cousin and not treating us like annoying little girls, even though we were most of the time! :)

They are so cute together!

Congratulations again, Lindsay & Will. It was an honor to be a part of your wedding weekend: attending the rehearsal and dinner, playing the violin, and waitressing the tables! I love you guys!!
