You can even play two or more songs. Many weddings feature live performances giving their renditions of the future husband and wife\'s favorite songs. These kinds of ceremonies are usually the most memorable for everyone in attendance.

If you\'re stumped as to what wedding songs would be best for your ceremony, think about other weddings you have attended. Which ones do you remember the most clearly, and why do you think that is?

Is it because of the reception, the dress, or is it because of the music you heard? If it\'s because of the music, chances are that\'s a song that\'s worth considering.

If you still need some input as far as the best wedding songs to include in your ceremony, speak to your musicians. Ask them which kinds of songs they would suggest.

If you choose to use a piano player, she can possibly suggest some traditional wedding songs. But if you prefer something nontraditional, then maybe use some different types of musicians. For instance, you could get a friend or family member to play a love ballad on the acoustic guitar.

Therefore, take your time with the selection process. Pick musicians according to their skill, but don\'t stop there. Pick them according to the type of music that you want to have for your wedding.

Your wedding songs and reception music should be an expression of your feelings for your future spouse, as well as for those others in attendance. But they must also be in good taste.

Remember that some churches might object to some kinds of music being played on their premises, so always clear the musical selections with the church leadership first.
