that may require a special selection of music<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You should also:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Confirm with the reception site where the band\/DJ will set up; make sure they have access to a large door.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Wedding Music Best Practices<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Be ready to cue musicians at the wedding ceremony; discuss this beforehand<\/li>\n<li>Advise your clients to feed wedding reception musicians\/DJ.\u00a0 Coordinate when this will happen!<\/li>\n<li>Using prerecorded music \u2013 e.g. on iPod \u2013 requires sufficient wattage to maintain the right amount of volume for wedding ceremony and especially for wedding receptions.\u00a0 Home stereo equipment may not suffice and it can sound distorted.\u00a0 Additionally, someone needs to \u2018run it\u2019 and know about song sequence<\/li>\n<li>Space wise \u2013 each musician takes up the space of about three people who are seated and facing each other comfortably. This is enough space for the musician, his\/her instrument and any other equipment.<\/li>\n<li>Musicians need to be able to see the action!\u00a0 If not, how will they get their cues? Even if you\u2019re supplying cues, it\u2019s much easier if they can see what is going on.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure musicians can see their music.\u00a0 Is the wedding outdoors, will musicians be facing the sun?\u00a0 Not good.<\/li>\n<li>As with any professional wedding vendor who your client hires, make sure to get everything in writing in the form of a contract.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Music for a Last-Minute Wedding<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re dealing with a last-minute wedding or your clients aren\u2019t that picky about their wedding music selections, answers to the following four (4) questions should cover the important bits.<\/p>\n<p>Ask your clients:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Do you want to walk down the aisle to \u2018Here Comes the Bride\u201d or something else?<\/li>\n<li>What style of music do you want for the rest of your wedding ceremony (classical music, modern pop love songs or religious hymns)?<\/li>\n<li>What song do you want played for your first dance?<\/li>\n<li>What style of music do you want for the rest of your reception?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>That&#8217;s it. It can be as easy as that. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-separator type-thin\"><\/div>\n<p>Music plays a central role at a wedding and can create long-lasting memories.\u00a0 Most married women can easily recall two songs from their wedding many years after their wedding day.<\/p>\n<p>Encourage your clients to select the music they love for their big day.<\/p>\n<p>HAPPY PLANNING!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn the ins and outs of creating the soundtrack for your client&#8217;s wedding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9459,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[295],"tags":[],"post_series":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>An Intro to Wedding Music - WFAL396 | Weddings for a Living<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/weddingsforaliving.com\/wedding-music-guide-wfal396\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"An Intro to Wedding Music - WFAL396 | Weddings for a Living\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Learn the ins and outs of creating the soundtrack for your client&#039;s wedding.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/weddingsforaliving.com\/wedding-music-guide-wfal396\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Weddings for a Living\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2016-09-21T18:04:12+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2016-10-06T01:03:34+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/weddingsforaliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/WEDDING-music1.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1150\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"700\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Debbie\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Debbie\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"6 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/weddingsforaliving.com\/wedding-music-guide-wfal396#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/weddingsforaliving.com\/wedding-music-guide-wfal396\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Debbie\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/weddingsforaliving.com\/#\/schema\/person\/c034f0454dd3042b17efaa198fc8caa3\"},\"headline\":\"An Intro to Wedding Music &#8211;
