The Perfect Wedding
Great music plays a leading role in both the ceremony and reception stage of a successful wedding.
For ceremonies I suggest these proven choices for the order and style of music-
- relaxing instrumental music during the arrival of guests
- a unique instrumental piece during the processional or the traditional ‘Bridal Chorus’ if preferred.
- a vocal number or instrumental music during the signing and/or sand ceremony (if applicable)
- an instrumental piece during the recessional
For ceremonies outside of the church such as beach and private residence weddings, it is also nice to continue with some light pop/rock acoustic guitar vocal hits. This is particularly popular during the cocktail period of the reception.
Of course I am happy to meet and correspond with the Bride and Groom to ensure that the music chosen suits their taste and choice.
If there is a favorite song of the Bride and Groom that you would like to be performed at the ceremony , I am very willing as always to learn if it is not already in my repertoire.
