I've been using this book at weddings, where my friend and I get hired to play violin duets, and we use most of the songs in this book at some point in the ceremony. Pretty much any song that someone will ask for-- whether for processional, recessional, bride's song, pre-wedding mood music-- is in this book. The arrangements mazimize the sound and harmony despite the presence of only two instrumentalists, and the parts are not too difficult (but they sound great anyway). Highly recommended!

I have been playing the violin for a little over 3 years, and will be playing at my first wedding in a couple of weeks. My teacher and I have both been impressed by the quality of the arrangements and the variety of the pieces.

The best book I've found for flute and violin duet playing at gigs, not just weddings, either. Thanks Scott!

I could not believe how hard it was to find wedding music for a violin duet. This book has absolutely gorgeous music! I found the songs quite long and hard to keep the beat, but so pretty. It doesn't hurt to pick a spot to end prior to the ending if the song is too long. For someone that practices a good amount and has a good sense of rhythm, go for it. You won't regret it.
