We learnt this for a Wedding at the beautiful Pangdean Old Barn in Sussex and played it for the entrance of the Bride and Groom. The light and whimsical nature of the piece suited the atmosphere perfectly and it was a unique and interesting choice for their aisle music. For fans of the anime “Your Name.” incorporating this song could add a personal and meaningful touch to your ceremony, making it even more memorable. While traditional wedding music is beautiful, a modern cover like this can offer a contemporary twist that might reflect the couple’s personality and style. Are you an anime fan, would you have this song feature during your wedding ceremony? Let us know!

Sarah says: “This is a rare example of when the Cello gets the melody! What a treat! The tone of the Cello suits the opening theme perfectly so when we were arranging it we knew that the melody had to feature in the Cello part.”

Jaya says: “The melodies are so playful and fun, you just can’t help but smile when you play them. While they might seem simple they have an incredible depth to them. As a deeply romantic song that features in such a romantic film, it’s perfect for us and works so well on the instruments.”
