Wedding Music
Everybody loves a good tune and naturally everybody has an opinion on what makes great wedding music. Choosing the music for your wedding is one of the most important decisions about the whole day simply because the choices you make have a dramatic impact on the atmosphere and mood created.Music During The Ceremony
The wedding ceremony is what the whole day is all about and will obviously be very special to you, so you'll want some special music to go with it. There are plenty of alternatives to organ music traditionally played and many people love the idea of having a piper heralding the bride's arrival at the ceremony. The bagpipes are very popular, especially for traditional or Scottish flavoured weddings, and lots of people find the sound extremely moving. One advantage of having a piper is that he's one of the few musicians who can play on the move, so he can offer a real sense of occasion when he walks the bride into the church or later on as he signals the arrival of the top table at the reception.There are endless possibilities if you're not keen on the pipes though. Before, during and after the ceremony your guests could enjoy the unmistakable tones of a classically trained lone voice, or the ethereal beauty of a Celtic harp and flute. Unless you'd prefer the romance of a string quartet, or maybe a pianist. Whatever you choose should fit with the overall feel of your day, so if you're aiming for an informal affair, a string quartet dressed in dinner jackets and playing classical pieces would obviously clash with your intended atmosphere.
