Say It with a Song

Finding perfect music for your wedding is probably taking as much time as deciding on the right flowers. With literally thousands of songs you could choose from, how could you be expected to find “the one” that says it all for each part of the ceremony? There are the traditional processional songs such as “Bridal Chorus (Here Comes the Bride) from Lohengrin” and “Canon in D” by Johann Pachelbel, two of the world’s most played wedding songs.  For the recessional song, which is commonly less traditional and meant to reflect the personality of the bride and groom, you could play anything from “Wedding March from A Midsummer’s Night Dream” by Felix Mendelssohn to the “Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor.

After the recessional, the first dance is your moment to declare the bond between you.  Searching through song after song trying to find the perfect lyrics can be maddening. There are sites to help you whittle down your decision such as “Wedding Music 101” which has a diverse listing of choices. But what do you do when you still cannot find the right one? You could consider writing your own song. Your words set to a new theme being played for the first time during your first dance. This may seem an intimidating task for most of us; thankfully there are professionals with the talent to help. One such group is the folks at “Love Song Entertainment”. They can write an original custom love song that will convey your love to one another that is truly your own.

Music has always been at the heart of celebrations, but deciding on the perfect song that says it all can be a daunting task. Tradition may be the best path to follow for the ceremony, but afterwards it is time to celebrate with your words. Start your life together expressing your love with a unique song that is all your own!
