Description: |
Steiner deftly combines the Wedding March with the Lullaby theme in this wedding scene; the cue is played tenderly and slowly, with the camera moving back and forth between the actual wedding and Vergie picturing the wedding in her mind and smiling; the only markings for this in the manuscript are at the end of Reel 8 Part 1 (page 39), which provides the first 2 measures and the final 2 measures with some brief descriptions of what to play in between - however, only "Here Comes the Bride" is mentioned, nothing about combining it with the Lullaby |

Analysis: |
Steiner sketches out the beginning and ending of this cue on page 7 of Reel 8 Part I, but doesn't include any of the parts where the themes are combined, and the parts we have differ a bit from what is in the film |
