Curating the soundtrack to the happiest day of your life is no small feat, albeit an exciting one. With the immense volume of music out there it can be overwhelming to try and narrow down only a handful to highlight the key moments of your event. Here are some of our top tips when choosing your special songs.
1. Consider your personal taste
It's important to choose songs that you and your partner enjoy and that have meaning for you. Don't feel obligated to choose popular or traditional wedding songs if they don't resonate with you.
2. Think about the tone and mood
Decide what kind of atmosphere you want to create with your music. Do you want a romantic and intimate vibe, or a more upbeat and celebratory one? Make sure your song choices match the overall mood you're aiming for. For instance, the married couple's reception entrance is usually most impactful when accompanied by an upbeat, recognizable song that guests can sing along to and build excitement for the couple as they enter the room.
3. Consider the lyrics
Listen closely to the lyrics of the songs you're considering. Make sure they are appropriate for a wedding and reflect the sentiments you want to express. Some songs may be more suitable for a first dance, as opposed to a Mother/Son dance, and vice-versa.

4. Coordinate with your musicians or DJ
A DJ will play the original recorded version of the song, whereas a band/musician can add a live and organic element to the song. Consider which delivery you prefer when choosing how your special songs are played.
5. Don't forget about the ceremony
While you may be focused on choosing songs for the reception, don't forget to select music for your ceremony as well. Instrumental versions of your favourite songs is a popular option here, played by a string formation, or piano.
6. Working with a professional
Have confidence in the expertise of the professionals you've enlisted. We are here to ensure that the soundtrack to your wedding not only reflects your taste, but that it is also presented in the best format and helps the day flow smoothly and cohesively. In essence, we take what you want and help you execute it to the fullest impact.
