Personalized Song Theme Weddings

Songs have a way to help us remember things we had forgotten completely about. Just hearing a few chords of a song can stir up the past and send your mind back days or even years in time. Songs usually point to specific memories in your past.

Why not allow songs to create specific memories for your wedding day? For the couple that loves music, a song theme wedding is a great option. Song theme weddings are also great for musicians, singers, or songwriters.

There are several ways to organize a song theme wedding. It all depends on how personal you want to make your theme. For a personal song theme that still holds a general appeal, you may want to consider planning your wedding around a certain genre of music.

If you and your mate love country music, then plan your wedding with a country music theme. Play songs such as "I Will Always Love You" by Dolly Parton or "From This Moment" by Shania Twain. "My Best Friend" by Tim McGraw is also a great song addition to any wedding.

For couples who love the sounds from the past, think of organizing an Elvis song wedding or Motown theme wedding. Songs like "I Can't Help Falling In Love With You" go great in this genre of music. Marvin Gaye is also a great artist to try out for a Motown song theme wedding.


Another fun way to plan a song theme wedding in a more personal manner is by using the favorite songs of those involved in the wedding. You can choose to use only the favorite songs of the bride and groom, or you can include one song for each attendant as well.

Good choices for these songs are the first song the couple danced to or the song that played during their first kiss. Contrary to belief, wedding songs don't have to always be slow ballads. Throwing in a few upbeat songs is a great way to relax your guests and let them know the couple wants them to have a good time.

When choosing this way to present your theme, you should definitely make explanatory programs detailing each song title and the significance of the song to the wedding couple.

This allows guests to be clued in on your special theme and take more notice of the song detail in your wedding. You can even choose to label the songs as "Our First Kiss" and so on, if you wish. The more personal you get, the more the guests will appreciate your choices and understand your theme.

Song theme weddings should be budgeted to include a decent sized band or orchestra to allow the songs to be the main focus of the wedding. Brides should steer clear of any distracting decorations during the ceremony. The less distraction away from the music, the better the theme will come across.

For the reception, brides can choose to use giant musical notes and piano keys to decorate the location. Colors of black, white, gold, and silver are great to use for this theme.

Song theme weddings are great fun to plan and attend. Couples have a great range of creative options in planning a wedding of this theme. Using personal song choices and detailed programs, wedding couples can pull off exciting and successful song theme weddings.
