Helpful Hints for Weddings:
Choosing Music
Prelude:

mostly classical and popular songs is recommended. The most common
requests are:
A Time for Us by Nina Rotio
Think of Me By Andrew Webber
Wind Beneath My Wings
Music for Family and Bridesmaids:
This music signals the beginning of the ceremony and is geared for the
bridal party and family members of your choice (Mothers, Fathers and
Grandparents) to walk down the aisle. The most common requests are:
Jesu, Joy of Man Desiring by J.S. Bach
Canon in D by Pachelbel
A Time for Us from Romeo and Juliet

escorting her down the aisle. Both traditional and non-traditional favorites
include:

Ceremony:
For longer ceremonies it adds a wonderful touch to have quiet
background music during such segments as: lighting candles, presenting
flowers to parents, exchanging rings or just time for reflection. It is not
recommended to have music
during talking or speeches. Some lovely pieces for this time are:
Think of Me by A. L Webber
All I Ask of You by A. L. Webber,
Down by the Garden an Irish Love Song
Recessional:
At the ceremony's completion, joyous, up-beat, and triumphant music is
the best. Among those most requested:
