Music
for your reception
Whether you have a live band or a DJ, there are many types of music to
choose from. However, it is important to consider the likely tastes
and age range
of your guests when deciding what type of music to have played at your
evening reception. You will want a party atmosphere with as many
of your guests dancing
as possible. With a DJ this will be no problem at all since their repertoire
is immense. If you are having a live band, your chosen musicians will need
to have a good repertoire of middle-of-the-road dance music if you want
to get all your guests swinging! Again, this should not be a problem
to any musician
or band that is experienced in performing at weddings.
For something a little different, why not start off your evening with a themed session that will appeal to all ages. Imagine the fun you and your guests will have if you arrange for a live band to run a barn dance or a ceilidh (pronounced kay-lee).
At your evening reception, the bride and groom traditionally dance first on their own to a waltz. However, as ballroom dancing is not so popular these days, the newlyweds usually dance to a favourite romantic song. During the playing of this song, it is traditional for the groom to dance with his new mother-in-law and then with his mother, while the bride dances with her new father-in-law and then with her father. The best man also joins in dancing with the chief bridesmaid and the ushers with the other bridesmaids when the bride and groom first change. After the first dance, all the guests are invited to join the newlyweds on the dancefloor.
