When Fred Goldring began thinking of his oldest daughter’s wedding day, he knew a simple gift wouldn’t do. Mr. Goldring, who is a former entertainment lawyer and musician in Pacific Palisades, Calif., had always dreamed of performing a song on his daughter’s wedding day. “I had always dreamed of performing a song for both of my daughters at their weddings, but I had never really thought about what song that would be,” Mr. Goldring said. Shortly after his daughter’s engagement, Mr. Goldring began to think of how he would make that dream a reality. “When I told my wife that I wanted to play an original song at Jenna’s wedding, she wasn’t exactly enthused,” Mr. Goldring said.
