Another question about wedding music, oh dear. I'm playing with a flute quartet though. Four c flutes. Any suggestions? I am completely in the dark about what to look for. I'm sure fluteworld has enough that would be suitable, but I don't know what they sound like. Any skill level is fine. We are all flute majors.

Unfortunately, we don't have access to any other flutes.
The suggestions don't necessarily need to be limited to what you know is transcribed for flute quartet. I could transcribe or look for a transcription. I just need to know what pieces would be acceptable to play at a wedding...and a known transcription would be a great bonus.

I have an a arrangement from Orpheus by Gluck for four flutes that I think would sound really nice for a wedding. I have extras of it, I would be happy to pass it along to you if you would like.

Thanks for that link "Zoom" it is massive. A virtual library of things to browse through. It helps if one knows what corners to go into though.
Another source for some ideas:
