Make Sweet Music Together

Selecting your music is something that the two of you (bride and groom) can do together and one of the few tasks that a groom may actually enjoy! Music sets the tone – before the wedding, during the ceremony and at the reception. Plus it adds an elegance to your wedding and liveliness to your reception.

If you have hired musicians for your ceremony to provide the perfect sounds and you are having your wedding and reception at the same location then you will be able to use them for both, but if you have paid them for the ceremony and your budget won’t allow for additional entertainment, consider having CD’s made that can be played at your reception to enhance the excitement of the event. (If you are using the church organist meet with them in advance to hear and select music from their repertoire).

Having CD’s made also allows you to be creative and personalize the songs you choose as a couple and if the music is close to your heart then you could create a copy of the CD that your guests could take with them in memory of your big day.

If you choose pre-recorded music, just make sure to double check that your wedding and reception locations have adequate sound systems to accommodate the sound you are trying to provide.

As your research for your musicians or DJ’s, the first place to turn for recommendations would be your close friends and family. However, at StrictlyWeddings.com, our partners have been uniquely selected to provide you with beautiful music.

Whatever your choice, make it uniquely yours … it’s what memories are made of.
