How to Choose the Perfect Wedding Songs


Music choice during a wedding is important. This could be the music you opt for during the ceremony or the wedding song you choose for your first dance together as man and wife. The problem is that you cannot always opt for your personal favourite songs.

Songs You Both Enjoy

Just because you love a certain song does not mean that your partner does. When it comes to choosing wedding songs for the first dance and weddings songs for the ceremony, you need to choose something that both of you enjoy. This is the day for the two of you together and not just one of you!

Matching the Theme of Your Wedding

If you have a specific theme for your big day then this is something else to consider for the wedding songs. However, this is not as important as getting your personality across. The song chosen for the first dance shows off the type of couple you are. There are some couples who choose to put a montage of songs together to show off their love and personalities. This is something that you may consider doing for the wedding songs for the first dance.

Read Through the Lyrics

You both may love a particular song but that does not mean that it is the best one for the first dance or the ceremony. Take the time to read through the lyrics and think about what the songs mean. There are a number of traditional songs that are used for church ceremonies and have beautiful lyrics but that does not mean you need to choose them; there are a number of other songs that may be better suited for your big day.

Walking Down the Aisle

Stuck on the wedding songs for walking down the aisle? Some brides will choose the wedding march while others will want something different. There is no right or wrong answer as this is a personal choice for the bride. Choosing a different song for walking down the aisle is another way to bring out your personality for the day.

Just remember that the day is about the two of you. When choosing the wedding songs, it is important to talk to each other and share likes and dislikes. It does not matter what others think about your song choices as this is your day. Whether you are looking for wedding songs for the first dance or songs for the ceremony, it is important to be happy with them as a couple.

Dealing with the Cost of Guests for Destination Weddings

Image
Enjoy your destination wedding. Image by Grand Velas Riviera Maya One of the downsides of a destination wedding is that all your guests may not be able to attend. It commonly leads to the idea of paying for your guests but this could blow your budget. There is also the possibility that your guests expect you to pay for their travel since you want them to be a part of your big day. So, how should you deal with this cost of destination weddings? Pay for Immediate Family and Friends One option is to pay for those close to you – the people in your bridal party and the closer relatives, like grandparents and siblings. This means that the people you really want to be there will be able to attend, without having to worry about the cost. The rest of your friends and family will have to spend their own money to attend; just don’t complain if they can make it for their own budget problems. Pay for Part of the Costs If you want to make sure all your guests can make it, o...

Avoid the Risks of a Cheap Wedding Photographer

Wedding photography is something that most – if not all – couples want at the wedding? I know it’s definitely something that I want. Photographs hold all the memories that fade over time so you can look back on the day and remember with a smile. The problem with wedding photographers is that they can be expensive. While I was looking around for wedding photographers, I found that they were coming up to between £2000 and £3000 for a full day and that didn’t even include the albums or copies of the photos! I would have to pay extra for that! However, I’ve managed to find someone to do the whole day of photography for between £300 and £500, depending on the type of album my partner and I end up choosing, perfect for my budget wedding. How did I do it? As you know from my previous post, I went to a friend who is taking a photography degree at university. She is getting into the wedding photography side and I asked her how much she was charging. Since she is still learning, she quoted...

How Much Should You Spend on Your Wedding?

Image
I recently saw a thread on a forum about people spending tens of thousands of pounds on their wedding. There does seem to be a big move into spending a large amount on one day. To some that’s stupid but to others it’s their dream. How much should you spend on your wedding? Honestly, I believe it should be as cheap or as expensive as you’d like. Okay, so you can’t do it for free, but you don’t need to spends thousands if you don’t want. There are low-cost venue options and you can keep the guest list to the bare minimum. If you don’t want Great-Aunt Dot at your wedding day then there’s no need to invite her (unless of course Great-Aunt Dot is like your mother and is paying for the wedding). We didn’t want to spend a fortune. We had a small budget, with most of it going on the venue and food. We found a cheaper wedding photographer, I got my wedding dress off eBay, and some of the additions were gifts from some of the guests. That being said…if you want to spend...
