Aled Jones explores the world of choral music for weddings.

Aled Jones explores the world of choral music for weddings and is joined by Nigel Short of St Bart's Church, David Guest of the Wedding Music Company and the Rev Richard Coles.

Aled Jones takes a look at the weird and wonderful world of music at weddings. Whether in church or at a civil ceremony in a Registry Office the wedding day can take unsual turns. And once the paperwork is stamped festivities can take place wherever. How about the music then? Aled is joined by Nigel Short director of music at 'The Four Weddings and a Funeral Church', St Bart's; David Guest whose company provides a comprehensive musical package for the big day; and the broadcaster and former member of the Communards the Revd Richard Coles, now Curate of St Paul's Church Knightsbridge, London.
