Can’t think of a good gift for your new husband or wife? Try writing a musical! As seen in the video above, John wanted to do something really special for his new wife, Irene, so he secretly composed a short musical with the help of Blue Kite Cinema and had friends and family perform it at their wedding reception. The musical, called “Centerpiece,” begins by interrupting the best man’s speech with a short little tune about flowers; it then escalates from there with further interruptions, followed by a fantastic interlude from the bride’s father about how awesome his silk tie is. As John wraps up the musical with a romantic solo, there are definitely some tears flowing, but don’t worry — the tie gets another mention.
