Ceremony Music

Ceremony music welcomes guests and is played gently in the background whilst guests are seated. Generally these songs lasts for 20 to 30 minutes prior to the wedding ceremony.
Whether you prefer a festive, elegant, or religious ceremony the songs you choose create a unique and memorable occasion as well as add to your individual wedding style.
Having live music for your wedding ceremony is now more popular than ever.
Live wedding songs means you have a level of atmosphere that can’t be replicated. Whether it be a string quartet, harpist, guitarist or singer, live songs create a warm, inviting and stylish atmosphere.

Popular ceremony song examples:
Pachabel’s “Canon in D”
The Wedding March by Mendellsohn or Wagner
Handel’s “Water Music”

Pachabel’s “Cannon”
More than Words – Extrme

Wedding Songs for the Reception

You may need to consider songs that appeal to both the older and younger generations who will attend your wedding reception. Your wedding songs may also be affected by your setting and theme.

For example an intimate beach wedding may call for laid-back, acoustic style songs, whereas a formal wedding of many more people may best be accommodated by a more conservative choice of music that appeals to a wide audience. When you discuss weddings songs with your DJ or musician they should have many examples of what would work well for your particular taste and wedding style.

First-Dance Songs

First-dance songs are in general chosen with regard only to the couple’s song preferences. These songs will generally mean something to you as a couple and will be significant and memorable.

Personalised Wedding Songs

A trend to become more popular in recent times is to have your own wedding song created and produced by specialists. Some take part in a professional recording of the song which is played back on the day, and can become a musical centerpiece of your big day. A song can be created from a poem or speech and turned into music as a unique and heartfelt gift for bride or groom.
