Music plays a very important role in a wedding ceremony so you should select the ceremonial songs for your special occasion that are right for you. Music sets the mood and adds to the whole romance of the ceremony.
You may well have favourite songs in mind but you need to plan when they should be played and how it works in with the ceremony as a whole. There are prelude songs played while guests wait for the ceremony to start, wedding party processional songs, bride's processional songs, interlude and recessional songs (signing the register), and upbeat happy songs to be played after the wedding party has left and the guests get ready to leave.
If you want to make it extra special, then why not choose a live music band or group, though you must check with the venue first to understand any possible restrictions.
Here’s some great musicians based in your local area and from further afield, whom you might want to get in touch with...
Don't forget to mention County Wedding Magazines when contacting a musician.

I am Rebecca and I have been playing the harp for weddings and events for nearly 20 years! Over that time I have been blessed to play for hundreds of couples and feel very lucky to have been a part of so many amazing and unique weddings, civil partnerships, christenings, parties, and other celebrations.
I live near Market Harborough but cover all of the Midlands, East Anglia, and further. I specialise in modern pop and film music (although I am always happy to mix in a bit of classical and folk, especially Pachelbels Canon!), and I love a challenge, so feel free to request whatever you want!
For more info please feel free to check out my website and socials, or get in touch for a chat.
