Your wedding will be a huge collection of memorable events. From your entrance to the cake-cutting, each special moment deserves a song that captures how wonderful it is. During our planning process, we help our couples pick out songs for the special moments throughout the wedding day. Below are some of the moments that we believe deserve their own special songs.
- Ceremony Prelude
This is usually background music; and generally something light and exciting so you can set the tone for the event. While you might not be hearing it a lot, it will play as guests are getting seated and the ceremony is just a few minutes away from being started. We often like to suggest some instrumental pop songs.
- Reception Grand Entrance
It’s your wedding day, so it’s only fitting that you make a grand entrance. Your entrance is one of the most memorable moments of your ceremony. Guests, friends, family, and loved ones will all have their eyes on you, excited from the beautiful ceremony and ready to celebrate with you. We recommend that you use a song that will pump up the crowd with a lot of energy or a song with a big surprise something to make it even more breathtaking. Depending on your choice, you could dance in with your groomsmen or you could walk in with the ambiance of king and queen.
- Cake Cutting
This is your chance to pick a fun or silly song if you would like. Or it can be sentimental. Either way, pick one that will make you smile as you enjoy this sweet moment.
- First Dance
The first dance is always a sentimental and passionate moment. Most couples usually prefer a slow song, or one that has a lot of meaning in their relationship. But if you are more on the adventurous side you can definitely choose something that increases tempo or is more upbeat.
- Father-Daughter and Mother-Son Dances
Parents’ dances will usually follow the first dance. A parent-child dance can be wonderful and full of emotions, so it is important to find the right song for you. You could go for a song that sparks shared memories or just a song that you both think is a beautiful choice.
- The Last Dance
After a night of fun and excitement and new memories, it is hard for the celebration to come to an end. But alas it will end as all good things do. The last song is a great opportunity to pick the note that you want to end your evening. It can be a slow song to sway to while singing with your friends or something fun and funny to end with lots of energy!
