Weddings are all about you as a couple... and the music you
choose for your day is no exception! Picking songs that have special meaning to
you as a couple can give your guests an amazing insight into your story, who
you are as a couple and what you feel for each other and for the loved ones
closest to you.
Whether or not you have a band or a DJ, your entertainer
will ask you what songs you would like played for the formalities of the night... below are a
list of the formalities and a few of the popular song choices for each.
Entrance Song:
The first song of the night is an exciting time as it is the
first time you and your partner will be presented as the married couple at your
reception. This is the song that is used
for your bridal party entrance. Either a
fun, upbeat song is popular for the bridal party entrance or a love song that
is special to the couple - the choice is yours!

Bridal Waltz:
The Bridal Waltz is individual to every couple! It may be a new popular song or a song that
no one has heard of before! Whatever you
choose, it should be a song that is important to you and your partner. It may be a song that reminds you of when you
met, or when you got engaged or a song that describes your relationship. In
most cases, your band will be happy to try and learn this song for you to make
it extra special. If you have a DJ or
you are performing a choreographed dance you can also provide the original song
to the band or DJ to play.

Father-Daughter Dance:
Having a Father-Daughter dance is a touching way to honour
your Dad, it is a tribute to the bond shared between the bride and her Father.
There are many popular songs for the Father-Daughter dance and it is often a
slow song that is fairly easy to move to. It is important to chat with your Dad
when making a decision as he may have something special in mind too.
