You can never consider a
wedding complete without the reception part. While all other
ceremonies are solemn celebration, reception is the time to
congratulate the bride and groom in a more enthusiastic and fun way.
This is the reason that wedding reception and entertainment should be
anything but boring and dull. It should be lively and able to create
a happy, cheerful atmosphere and fill the air with romance and joy.
The moment the newly
wedded couple walks into the hall and as the guests welcome them, the
musician should strike a chord and play a song to provide them with a
warm welcome. The song should set the tone of the rest of the evening
and fill the atmosphere with love and romance. Any kind of music that
makes the environment interesting will be appropriate. For instance,
if you want to create a more up market and glamorous ambiance, you
can go with light swing or classical music.
However, if you want to
create a friendlier atmosphere with a more family feel, you might
want to consider playing well-known tunes and traditional songs that
are easily recognizable by the guests at the wedding. Plan out the
wedding reception entertainment carefully keeping in mind how you
want to control the ambience and what kind of environment you think
would be appropriate depending on the type of people who will be
attending the ceremony.
During the reception
part, you can have a live band throw a performance or even due or
trio performers. You can also settle with recorded music that can be
played by the disc jockey. It all really depends on your personal
choice as well as the budget. If you are planning on hiring a band,
do ask to listen to their music before hiring.
