Choosing your wedding music tipsWedding planningYour wedding service should be something which you can look back on fondly in years to come; this can be helped greatly with some well chosen music. The first step you should take when considering your choice of music should be the minister of the church, check that the resident organist will be available if you are having live music and if you want a choir. If the church doesn't offer live music then there are several organisations which specialise in providing musicians for weddings, these include choirs, solo vocalists, organists and instrumental ensembles. You and the groom should choose one or two organ pieces to be played on the guest's arrival which is then followed by the bridal procession. Two of three of your favourite hymns and music to be played during the signing of the register will also need to be chosen, this is then followed by the traditional wedding march. Always check with the vicar before printing out the final order of service sheets and be sure to ask if the ringing of the bells is included. Some popular ideas for choices of music for your wedding are: Music and hymns as the guests arrive * Air on a G string by Bach. * Sheep may safely graze by Bach. * Chanson de matin by Elgar. * Salut d`amour by Elgar. * Canon by Pachelbel. For the bridal procession * Bridal march from lohengrin by Wagner. * Prince of Denmark's march by Clarke. * Arrival of the Queen of Sheba by Handel. * Te Deum prelude by Charpentier. * Trumpet tune by Purcell. During the signing of the register * Ave Maria by Bach. * Brother James air by Macbeth Bain. * A Gaelic blessing by Rutter. * All things bright and beautiful by Rutter. During the procession down the aisle * Wedding march from a midsummer nights dream by Mendelssohn. * Overture from fireworks music by Handel. * Hornpipe from water music by Handel. * Prelude in C by Bach. * Theme from pomp and circumstance march by Elgar. Hymns * I vow to thee my country. * Amazing grace. * Morning has broken. * Lord of the dance. * Lord Jesus Christ. * Oh Jesus I have promised. * Give me joy in my heart. * Dear Lord and father of mankind.
