Top Songs For Wedding Ceremonies

Hi:

One of the most frequently asked questions from our brides and grooms is what songs should we have played for our wedding ceremony. Generally you normally need three songs for a typical wedding ceremony.

The most popular songs are "Canon In D", "Trumpet Voluntary", "Trumpet Tune", "Vivaldi's Spring",  & Handel's "Water Music".  "Ode To Joy" & "Wedding March" are also still popular.

Next time we'll talk about some of the popular non classical wedding ceremony songs.

Live Music For Your Cocktail Hour

One of the many options we offer our brides & grooms is live piano or keyboard music for their cocktail hour. It creates a great atmosphere to have someone playing an instrument as opposed to pre-recorded music.

Guests love it and it really adds a whole different dimension to the reception.

Try it, you'll like it!!!!

Summer Weddings

To all our brides & grooms, we hope you are all enjoying a great summer. Some tips for those of you who are having outdoor weddings or outdoor ceremonies and cocktail hours.

First, always have a contingency plan in case the weather is bad.
Second, if you are going to be outside during mosquito time, make sure the area has been sprayed, etc...
Lastly, if your wedding is in a residential area or at a private club, make sure you know how late your party can go. A lot of towns and areas have a time frame that due to the noise of the party it must end by a certain time. You certainly don't want to have to stop your party early when your guests are having a great time just because of a town restriction so plan ahead!!

Have a Great Summer & See You Soon!!!!!

Bridal Tip for the Week:

Try not to fill out your wedding info forms too early. We find a good time to be 4-6 weeks before your wedding. Filling them out much earlier than that can be a problem as things and songs tend to change.
We've seen couple change many of their formality songs as well as people who were originally going to be in their wedding party because as previously mentioned things will change.

Hope you found this tip helpful & have a Great Week.

Bridal Tips of the Month.

To all my present & future couples who I will be playing piano & DJing for very soon, I suggest that you keep your timeline for your wedding reception on the looser side.
We have found that the more micromanaged a wedding couple try to plan their formalities the more askew the timeline goes.
So keep it loose & have fun at your wedding. It's the biggest day of your lives, try to sit back, relax, & enjoy it to the fullest!!!

Good Luck

Joe
