My Wedding Journal: Wedding Music

COST CUTTING TIP

You can save hundreds of dollars by using an MP3 player instead of a band for the cocktail hour.

Your reception will most likely be filled with crowd-pleasing songs that guests can dance to, but your cocktail music should be quieter and feel more lounge-y. That doesn’t, however, mean you have to settle for Lite FM tunes. Spanish guitar, jazz trios, and acoustic duos are good choices; they’re as mellow as classical music but with more edge.

Some wedding song ideas:

1. All You Need is Love  – track from “Love Actually”
2. For Once in My Life – by Dionne Farris
3. You Do Something To Me – by Paul Weiss
