[Life] Wedding, 2012: Ceremony at Swedish Church, London




















帶領祈禱的牧師,為婚禮正式揭開序幕。
 



















在管風琴聲中攜手踏上紅毯,整個教堂充滿Royal College of Music 的朋友與師長,笑臉盈盈令人感動。蛋糕貓禮服蕾絲和紅毯勾結,五步之內就踩到了裙擺,幸好被緊緊纏扶著沒有摔倒,眾目睽睽之下只能連連無聲地 Oooops 硬著頭皮走向祭壇哪~~
 















牧師帶領祈禱並為我們吟誦馬太福音篇章,與舊約聖經中讚頌愛的 Song of Songs。
























 Jesus said:
“Have you not read that the one who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female’, and said, “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh”? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
(Matthew 19.4-6 NRSV)


Love is strong as death,
passion fierce as the grave.
Its flashes are flashes of fire,
a raging flame.
Many waters cannot quench love,
neither can floods drown it.
(Song of Songs 8.6-7 NRSV)
 















Johan 最好的朋友吉他手兼作曲家 Sam Cave 特地為我們婚禮作了一首吉他獨奏小品當作結婚禮物,作曲家世界首演喔!









吉他演奏結束後便是交換誓言戒指~ 

Johan是用瑞典文誓詞(據說他覺得比較真誠,我可是一句都聽不懂哈),我則是英文版本一句句跟著牧師念,其中有句誓詞好長差點跟不上 (汗),唸完了交換戒指真是鬆了口氣啊~XD 兩個人都有點呆掉,牧師便說  :「你們有打算要親吻嗎?」 全教堂哄堂大笑~


親吻表演結束後則是新娘指定的古樂演奏,由萬能伴娘演唱巴赫 Songs from Magdalene's Book 和婚禮清唱劇 (Wedding Cantata),搭配皇家音樂院古樂系朋友們友情演出~古樂系主任和知名古大提琴家 (我古長笛老師的老公,因為她去巴黎演出不克參加) 都坐在觀眾席中,演出壓力粉大齁~~ :P














古樂演出不僅音樂美妙,巨大的Theorbo琴果然引人注目,連牧師都忍不住說這天婚禮表演特別出眾,居然有他從來沒看過的樂器哪~又是一陣哄堂大笑















牧師又演說他對我們的印象、婚姻的重要與短短的祝福後就到此禮成,新人和伴郎伴娘在管風琴聲與快門閃光中退場進入辦公室簽結婚證書,教堂中則香檳瓶瓶大開,喝啦(台語)~ XD
