/ Entertainment Reporter Cape Breton's most eligible bacherlette wedded her Prince Charming in a beautiful wedding in Creignish Saturday.. For a fiddler known for playing up a storm, it was an appropriately blustery day in Creignish on Saturday as Natalie MacMaster married fellow musician Donnell Leahy. While a strong gale blew in off the Strait of Canso, over 300 family members, friends and fans gathered at the modest Stella Maris Catholic Church, which sits high on a hill overlooking the water. Some arrived hours beforehand, from as far away as Alberta and Seattle, to get a good vantage point outside the 103-year-old chapel before the 2 p.m. ceremony.
Vacationing Millbrook, Ont., couple Nancy and Allan Olan, who are big fans of the Leahy musical clan, were lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time. We've been following them ever since they were children, said Mrs. Olan. We never ever dreamt that we'd be here for this. I think they'll make a good match.
As rain drizzled down, participants trickled in, including Ontario native Leahy and his groomsmen brothers Frank, Doug and Angus and performing sisters Maria, Jennifer and Erin, who was also one of MacMaster's bridesmaids. The Troy fiddler's bandmate Matt MacIsaac played the bagpipes on the grass outside until the wind and water sent him back into the church. As the rain backed off, just after two, the bride and her parents, Alex and Minnie MacMaster, arrived in a sleek black Lincoln Town Car. Grinning from ear to ear, as photographers and TV cameras closed in for that crucial shot, MacMaster smiled and waved to assembled press and fans on her way into the church. Sister-in-law and matron of honour Tina MacMaster followed, ensuring the gusting winds didn't catch hold of the train to the bride's strapless gown, from Winchester's in Halifax.

The simple candlelit ceremony, inside the church that the international fiddling star attended as a child, was conducted by Father Hughie D. MacDonald with the homily read by family friend and Saint John Bishop Faber MacDonald. When two people of this stature join together, they represent themselves to hundreds of thousands of fans, said the bishop. There are hidden dimensions to what is taking place, joining two families, two musical traditions, two sets of fans. We are witnessing the foundation of reality at work today as they enter the mystery of love, the feeling and expression of it.
Of course, music played a large role in the hour-and-a-half-long ceremony, with featured musicians including the bride's uncle Buddy MacMaster on violin - along with Kinnon, Andrea, Dawn and Margie Beaton - and acclaimed Tennessee fiddler Mark O'Connor, her longtime friend and mentor. Keyboard duties were shared by Bob Quinn and Betty Beaton as well as Erin Leahey, who also joined her sisters as vocalists. Also performing vocal pieces were Christine Quigley, Denise Flack, Agnes Enright, Paul Eisan and Kate Quinn. Although reporters and photographers were asked to stay outside of the church, which was bursting with attendees beyond its 250 person capacity, the bride and groom met with the media after the service, in the vestry, for a quick question and answer session.
Overcome with emotion, Leahy said he was speechless while MacMaster responded that her immediate plans were to be happily married. When asked about children Leahy joked, There were lots of them there tonight. We'll keep it in the lower 10, added his new wife with a knowing smile. Although the couple plans to settle down in Lakefield, Ont., near Peterborough, after a Barbados honeymoon, both expressed a strong desire to maintain their Cape Breton roots with a second home there further down the road. I love Cape Breton, said Leahy, who was also joined by his parents Frank and Julie Leahy at the ceremony. My mom's from Inverness - Deepdale, Broad Cove - and it's just a great thing to be able to bring my whole family back and reunite. My mom's been living in Ontario for 40 years and it's just a dream of mine to bring them back and do it up right. When asked how marriage will affect their musical lives, Leahy responded that they were both very committed to their individual careers, but we hope to play together in the near future.
A request for an on-camera kiss caused Leahy to blush, I'm shy! But he obliged with a quick peck on his new wife's cheek before the couple returned to the chapel for photos of the wedding party. It was a great honour to play today, I'm very pleased, said Order of Canada member Buddy MacMaster, the dean of Cape Breton fiddling, after the ceremony. I played a dance last night in P.E.I. and caught the first ferry over this morning to be here. I think I got about an hour of sleep, but it was worth it. On Saturday night, the wedding reception was held at the Judique Community Hall just a few kilometres up the Ceilidh Trail from Creignish. At the reception, rock and roll favourites from Tribute were mixed with traditional Celtic dance sets played by the legion of talented musicians attending the ceremony. And as MacMaster hinted after the wedding, the bride and groom likely wouldn't be able to ,b>resist the temptation to play a tune or two themselves. It's a perfect rehearsal for a future of living in harmony.
