Playing Your Song
Music speaks to each of us differently – in fact, someone who ‘dances to their own drummer’ is said to be someone who follows their heart, very appropriate when referring to music for your wedding. Arranging music for your ceremony and reception can be a supremely personal choice, ranging from songs which may have special meaning to your relationship to those which carry a message you consider especially relevant to your day.
Whether you decide to have live music or a DJ (or a mixture of both), there are plenty of talented professionals on the Peninsula just waiting to help you get the party started. From rock and roll bands and classical trios to jukeboxes with light shows and karaoke (for your inner rock star), the Peninsula is home to many creative musical suppliers, all of whom are happy to work with you to create a perfect musical mix for your big day.
Many couples now choose to have different types of music at their weddings, opting for live music at the ceremony and pre reception drinks, then a DJ later in the evening to get the dance floor moving once dinner and speeches are over. Some DJ’s allow you the option of creating your own playlist and even supplying CD’s for songs they may not have, as well as providing microphones and sound systems for the speeches and MC duties. Consider content when putting your playlist together, however – some of the (ahem) older guests at your wedding may not appreciate Jay Z’s ‘Big Pimpin’ the same way you do, so by all means express your personal taste but be aware of your audience.
So kick up your heels, take a twirl on the floor and relax in the knowledge that this part of your day is planned to perfection – from Debussy to Dancing Queen, wedding music runs the entire gamut and is entertaining, surprising and most importantly, from the heart.
