The ultimate wedding songs: let’s get the party started!
Bride and groom often forget to fill in a proper wedding songs playlist, covering all special moments of the day.
Over the years I’ve come up with couples thinking only about the first dance song. They did not really realize that they should have focused on the rest of the wedding music as well: sometimes music have to be romantic, sometimes it can be extremely touching or energetic. Just think to the bride walking down the aisle, to the couple entrance to the reception, the father and daughter dance, the song for the cutting of the cake and many others.
Whatever is your music taste, this is not something that can be done in a short time: there are at least 10 important wedding songs to choose and I would like to give you some suggestions, among my favourites pieces for a modern playlist.
