Wedding Reception Music - Top Tips on Enhancing Your Wedding

Setting the mood for a celebration
The drinks reception after the wedding ceremony is a time for
congratulations all round. Musicians striking up as the newly
married couple and their guests arrive sets a buoyant mood from
the outset.
Any style which puts a spring in the step is appropriate. Light
classical or Swing Jazz gives a "Ritzy" up-market ambience to
the event. If you're after a more friendly family feel, you
might consider traditional tunes ... Irish style.
Live Music in the background
Music for the wedding reception and breakfast is strictly a
background affair. The main focus of attention, of course, is
the bride and groom. The wedding music enhances the aura of
happiness around the couple. It engenders a sense of relaxed
togetherness and encourages chatter, rather than detracting from
it.
The number of guests usually dictates the number of musicians
needed to create the desired effect. With careful amplification,
a duo will provide sufficient atmosphere for a party of up to 70
people. If your celebration is larger, you would be wise to
consider a trio or quartet.
Later, your musicians can serenade the guests at the beginning
of the wedding breakfast. The added quality and atmosphere that
only live music can bring to an event is just the thing to turn
your wedding breakfast into a truly memorable occasion.
Making the most of your wedding musicians
Make the best use of the musical skill at your disposal. When
you book musicians to perform for you, you can expect them to
perform (typically) three sets of live music, each approximately
45 mins long. Use the first set to make your wedding ceremony
really special. Any band or ensemble will be happy to discuss in

advance your options for each part of the service in order to
help you make the best choices. Use the second set to create an
up-beat atmosphere at the drinks reception. The final set will
kick the wedding breakfast off to a really special start.
With careful use of your investment in live music you can add
that extra-special "je ne sais quoi" that transforms an event
into a truly memorable celebration ... without breaking the
bank!
