How do I
even start making choices for wedding music?
|
- The 1st choice to make is “Live
or Recorded”?
-
Live = Musicians
- Recorded = DJ (or someone running the
CD player or sound system)
- The 2nd choice is “Instrumental
or Vocal”?
-
Instrumental wedding music = a string quartet, harpist, violinist, or
guitarist (or, if recorded, a full orchestra)
- Vocal wedding music = a capella, or
with a piano (or keyboard) or guitar accompaniment
- The 3rd choice is “Classical or
Modern”?
- Classical = strings, or an older song
- Modern = 20th century songs
|
| |
|
Once you’ve made these 3
choices, then the next thing to do is look at songs. Here are
the most popular choices. You can choose anything you’d like,
of course, but it’s nice to know what the classic, traditional songs
are.
