  1. hello,
    Thank you for the information listed above.
    Can you tell me what is the piece of music played after Erica received the wedding cards? She imagined her fiancรฉ playing behind a door or a curtain on the guitar I think, and she said to him while he plays: “you put a whole in me.” The music was so lovely, but I can’t find anything about it. Can you help? If you can , my email is:
    monaabihanna@gmail.com
    Thank You for your time.
