Many of the most memorable wedding moments are set to music. Set the tone for your wedding with a sentimental processional bridal song. From the traditional ‘Canon in D’ to the more recent favorites such as Ed Sheeran’s ‘Perfect’, choosing your wedding ceremony songs that resonate with you & your partner is key.  Although it’s sometimes an overlooked detail during planning, imagine the relaxing task of picking your wedding music! Are you a fan of Taylor Swift? Check out instrumental versions of her songs! These songs are great for the processional which can include seating of family, bridal party entrance and, my favorite, the bridal processional.

These are just a few of my favorites. Think outside the box. There is no right or wrong when choosing your songs so feel free to choose what speaks to you!

Also, think about who will be performing your wedding ceremony songs. Are you having live musicians or a DJ?  Your music pros can be very helpful when it comes to selecting the specific songs that will play during the ceremony. If you are looking for an instrumental group, we highly recommend The Deoc Ensemble or guitarist Ken Jehle. They are an elegant addition to for ceremony and/or cocktail music!
