CEREMONIES
At a traditional wedding ceremony,
live music sets the mood, whether
as a background to a candle lighting
ceremony or during the processional
and recessional, music surely enhances
the event.
There has been a trend in recent
years to use prerecorded music stored
on a phone and played through a blue-
tooth enabled speaker. These have
created some unintentional incidents
at ceremonies such as songs being
played out of order or the phone ringing
during the vows. Speak with any active
wedding professional and they are
certain to suggest against it. Ask your
DJ to play beautiful music for your
ceremony. You can even select your
favorite special song for your recessional
after the ceremony when you walk down
the isle as newlyweds.

to the overall success of your wedding
reception, whether it's a large or small

genres to accomodate everyone and keep
them on the dance floor," says Brevin.
