Have you found the perfect song to sip champers to while you are getting dressed?? What about that modern, meaningful song for when all eyes are on you as you come down the aisle?? There are some beauties in that list, I think my favourite list so far has been the recessional list (Get your married Groove on blog post), so much fun stuff in there.
And now, the formal photos are done, if you are having them (I recommend you do, your mood will be SO different after the ceremony and a good photographer will capture some truly beautiful first moments with your new spouse that you will treasure forever).
In Australia, the traditional receiving line has been replaced with a grand entrance at the reception, where all of the bridal party are introduced in pairs to seated guests who have all relaxed with a drink or two and introduced themselves to the strangers on the table (there should always be a couple of strangers on each table, it makes for great conversation starters).
So, what music should play as your MC is announcing your best friends, parents, that far too cute flower girl and ring bearer and of course, the star of the show – the newlyweds!
Here’s a list, with links to youtube, some are romantic, some are tongue in cheek, some are joyful, all will help create a mood for the rest of the evening
