This Wedding Had a Surprise Performance by Leigh Nash!

In general, no one likes a wedding crasher. Unless of course, that wedding crasher happens to be singer and songwriter, Leigh Nash of Sixpence None the Richer. The groom surprised his bride by flying in Leigh for a wedding day performance as a nod back to one of their most special dates seeing her in concert. Our friends at Focused Bliss Productions perfectly captured it on film, and all that’s left to do is kick back and press play.

From Focused Bliss Productions John and Cristin met seven years ago in Vermont where they both grew up, so it was only appropriate for them to hold their wedding back in the place that they both call home.

They started the day with their preparations just doors apart at the Hermitage Inn surrounded by the colorful foliage, seasonal pumpkins, and fall decor.

Just before officially tying the knot, John – being the more emotional one of the two – could not hold back his tears and smiles as he turned around to view Cristin in her beautiful dress for the first time outside of the houses where they got ready.

The ceremony following this was just as equally emotional as they exchanged their personal vows to one another at Saw Mill Farms Inn under a picturesque birch arbor that faced a tranquil lake.

To top of the day, they then moved the party to the Hermitage Club, a resort used as a ski lodge during the winter season. Little did Cristin know, but John had a big surprise in store at the end of the night in which he flew in Leigh Nash of the band Sixpence None the Richer to provide a personal performance to them and their guests.

This was very meaningful for the two as Leigh Nash was, in fact, the performer that John and Cristin had seen at their first concert together – which was the same day on which John knew he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Cristin.
