Cerkvena poroka naj bi bila po nenapisanem pravilu v župniji neveste. Ker sem se od doma selila že pred nekaj leti, ne čutim nobene posebne potrebe, da bi bilo to v domači cerkvi v Bizoviku. V Bizoviku nikoli nisem zares želela živeti. Zame je to enostavno preveč (in hkrati premalo) mestno okolje. Vedno sem si predstavljala, da bo moja poroka nekje v naravi. V mislih imam tudi zelo konkretno cerkvico sv. Petra na Vrhu nad Želimljami, kjer me je Aljaž v začetku letošnjega leta presenetil z zaročnim prstanom.
Kmalu sva oba vedela, da najina poroka ne bo na Vrhu nad Želimljami in na koncu tudi to, da ne bo v Ljubljani, ker sva si želela skromno civilno poroko in razkošno cerkev, kjer bova lahko pri samem obredu prisluhnila najinim prijateljem iz zbora APZ Tone Tomšič, v katerem sva se spoznala. Takega pevskega zbora pač ne spraviš v vsako slovensko kapelico :)
Sočasno z odločanjem o primerni cerkvi je rasla tudi skupna želja, da po poroki zaživiva na Koroškem in tako sva se odločila za Cerkev sv. Petra na Kronski gori, ki jo že kar redno obiskujeva pri nedeljski sveti maši.
Izbrana cerkev je na poti med Slovenj Gradcem in Dravogradom pomembna orientacijska točka Mislinjske doline.
"Že od daleč jo uzremo, vso samozavestno, z dvema zvonikoma, ki štrlita proti nebu in se ponosno razgledujeta na starodavni Št. Janž ter Otiški vrh pod seboj. Cesta, ki se pri Št. Janžu odcepi k sv. Petru, nas pripelje prav do cerkve. Na 856 metrov nadmorske višine je enkratna razgledna točka. Prav gotovo je tudi ta razgled vplival na graditelje, da so se odločili postaviti cerkev na tem kraju." (citiran zapis: Franci Petrič)
Isti avtor je zapisal tudi ljudsko zgodbo o nastanku cerkve: "Na Kronski gori so bili v davnini pašniki, kjer so se pasle ovce. Pastirji so opazili, da so se vedno zbirale na vrhu. Čeprav so jih razganjali, so jih vedno znova našli na istem mestu. To so si začeli razlagati kot znamenje, da naj na tem kraju pozidajo cerkev. Cerkveni predstojniki pa niso bili temu nič kaj naklonjeni. Prišla je posebna komisija iz Ljubljane in odločila: "Tu cerkve nikoli ne bo!" Ko so se zvečer vračali na konjih nazaj, pri Taumbirtu v Št. Janžu konji niso hoteli naprej. Ustavili so se in obrnili nazaj proti Kronski gori. To je bilo tudi za nasprotnike zidave znamenje, da morajo na vrhu postaviti cerkev."
Cerkev je zgrajena v baročnem slogu, po predvidevanjih naj bi jo načrtoval Janez Fuchs iz Maribora (avtor razkošnega stopnišča v mariborskega gradu). Njena velikost priča o tem, da je bila glede na majhen kraj oziroma župnijo verjetno načrtovana kot romarska cerkev. Ker je cerkev zelo velika ima celo dva kora, enega nad drugim. Petje zborovskega repertoarja, ki ga bova objavila do konca tega tedna (dirigent APZ Sebastjan Vrhovnik ga dodeluje v nekaj malenkostih), bo tako res nekaj veličastnega.

Pravi koncert! Vabljeni :)
Where do I begin?
After a few days residing in our future flat, it was time to go into detail about the location of our wedding. You guessed it: it's the pretty red church in the picture! :) All kidding aside, the church of St Peter is HUGE!, especially when you look at the fact that there aren't many people living nearby. So Kristina's argument that it was originally intended as a pilgrim church makes a lot of sense.
The church is an impressive landmark and is even more striking when viewed from up close. I won't go into detail about its construction, suffice it to say that it seats enough people, it has to balconies, an almost new organ, and is big enough to house a marching band if Easter should surprise us with rain. :) It's a place with great acoustics, and that's one of the reasons we chose it, since the music during our ceremony was one of the prerequisites for our wedding in the first place. It was our wish from the very beginning to have good music accompany us into wedlock, so an well-sounding church with enough room for about 40-50 singers was a must. At this point I would like to thank the singers of APZ Tone Tomšič and KAPZ Mohorjan, and the conductor Sebastjan Vrhovnik, for their willingness to make our special day that more special.
But I've also spent a lot of time thinking about our plans and goals for the (distant) future, especially when it comes to business. The wedding isn't going to finance itself, and considering the problems that come from money (or lack thereof), Kristina and I have to frequently remind ourselves that the really important bits of 30 August really don't cost that much (if anything at all). But I've come to realize something in the past few days: making money is an ongoing effort, and just like anything else in life, the more you do it, the better you get at it. And now I'm currently in the process of coming up with a winning money-making idea while looking for the right tutorship and building my very own dream team. So if you fit the bill, you know where to find me. :)

P.S.: I'm sorry I didn't include any photos or youtube links this time, it's just that nothing popped up. My bad.
