propriety of music

we are engaged in wedding music and we always remind our clients to fit their music selections during the church ceremony from the very start meaning the prelude music down to the recessional march.

prelude music is something to set the mood of the guests as the entourage are prepared for the walk and when procession starts, of course a music is played and a classical piece is preferred and when the bride walks the aisles, a love song of their choice is acceptable or their theme song if there is any...it has to be mellow or with a solemn touch or else the officiating minister will offer you a questioning look.

throughout the course of the ceremony, the music has to be liturgical in nature and when the ceremony is over and souvenir shots follow then love songs are appropriate to be performed...not the fast ones, mind you or else the solemnity is tarnished...

of course, the final walk has to be a bit festive but properly chosen...
