Wedding Bands, Yes Or No?

There are many traditions done at wedding receptions, one of the being the bride dancing with her father after she has united with the groom. This is a symbolization of the father’s final “goodbye” to his daughter, giving room for her new husband. There are many different songs that have been used for weddings, and wedding receptions. Wedding bands are a big asset to a wedding. Some good choices consist of “In My Father’s Eyes” by Martina McBride and “Butterfly Kisses” by Bob Carlisle. Music has a big influence on the mood of the atmosphere. It plays a role in the attitude of the guests.

Throughout the wedding reception, it’s a wonderful idea to keep music playing. Guests’ enjoy a live “wedding band” performing while they fellowship one with another. Music is a wonderful ice-breaker for the moments that seem to be awkward. Not only that, but music can change one’s temporary state of mind, or their mood.

Funny bridal songs are a great way to keep the mood enlightened. If you want everyone to feel at home, choose silly, but sweet songs. Up temp would be better for this type of setting. Some funny songs choices include “Anything You Can Do, (I Can Do Better), Baby, It’s Cold Outside, and so on.

Romantic songs are, of course, another typical choice for a wedding reception. Having family friends sing on a raised stage is a great idea for “wedding bands”. Also, getting an actual band to perform would be another good idea. Nothing with the feel of “Rock N Roll”, though. This is a celebrating between the bride and her groom. Attention should be on them.

Slow tempo songs are good selections as well. These songs in particular keep the guests soothed, quiet, peaceful, etc. To list a few “sweet” songs; “From This Moment” by Shania Twain, “When God Made You” by Newsong, and “Lucky” by Jason Mraz. These are just a few of the many possible choices.

A very rare idea is to play hard rock music. This is definitely not a common choice, but whatever suits your personal personality, and that of your mate. If you go with this idea, choose suitable song choices for a reception. Not everyone likes this idea, because it makes the reception less “homey”. Meaning, it’s not the most attractive setting, but it’s “whatever floats your boat”, as people say! There are sweet hard rock songs out there! Get to looking!

An option that does not occur very regularly is going with no music at all. Some people enjoy the quiet as much, or even more than music being sung. If you go with this particular option of having no music, make sure to have other fun activities to keep your guests’ occupied. Boredom is never fun. Food and games would definitely help that type of problem.

Keep the development of the wedding, wedding reception, and music all under your own influence. Talk to the groom-to-be and choose plenty of songs that would be suitable for your wedding. If you choose not to go with music, keep it all entertaining! Whatever you end up going with, make it your own!
