A wedding is a cause to celebrate, dance and sing to the rhythm of the music, a day in which everyone wants to enjoy themselves with the newlyweds. And who doesn’t like music?
Each part of the celebration should have a different soundtrack, for example the ceremony should have classical or gospel music, the cocktail reception should have jazz or pop music, with rock or electronic music for the wedding disco afterwards.
Whether you hire a band, singer or DJ to play live at your wedding, your guests will be entertained at every moment, and all of their emotions will be running high. Therefore, in this article we will give you some ideas for hiring a musical act for your wedding.
Let’s start!
A Gospel Choir
This is the best music option for your ceremony, as to say ‘I do’ with this music in the background will make your wedding very unique as well as entertaining.
More than thirty voices singing in a choir brings an American element to your wedding, almost as if you are actually in America, adding a touch of your own personality to your wedding that combines the voices of the young with the more experienced voices of the old.
Agree on some classic songs that you want to hear at your wedding with the choir, and everyone will want to sing along with this in the background! A ceremony to the rhythm of Fade, Proud Mary, Stand by me or God did it!
A jazz band
Time for the cocktail reception, a time for calm and the opportunity to try the best drinks. This part of the wedding wouldn’t be right without relaxed and calming music. A saxophone, double bass and piano band would be the perfect genre for this moment!
It adds a unique and surprising element, with the rhythms of There is no greater love, Have you met miss jones, Out of nowhere, Here is that rainy day or Girl from Ipanema.
The Hot Tubes
Lets party! After the banquet, we want to move our bodies, and for this the best option would be The Hot Tubes, a group of very professional spectacular singers who would certainly bring the energy to the party.
At your wedding, they will be sure to play some songs from their repertoire of over 200 rock and pop hits from the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s with a variety of styles such as M-clan, Sabina, Fito, Platero y tú, Loquillo, Pereza, Extremoduro and many more.
Everyone will be dancing to Qué hace una chica como tú en un sitio como este, Lady Madrid, Princesas, Salir, Noche de boda o El roce de tu cuerpo. In fact, this band has been awarded the prize for the best loved band in Spain for this exact reason!
A Tribute band such as ABBA?
Why not? If you are lovers of a specific music group, you could always choose between the wide range of tribute bands that there are for many singers, as is the case for ABBA, one of the most requested groups in the world for every type of event.
It would be a very special opportunity to relive the great success of one of the most influential groups of all time, transporting you to the 70s and 80s with songs such as Chiquitita, Mamma Mia and Waterloo.
You will have all of your guests singing and dancing!
Some Mariachis for your Mexican wedding
Are you getting married amongst tequila, nachos, skulls, sombreros and colourful bunting? Well, Mariachis would be your perfect symphony!
You could always adapt the music to the theme or style of your wedding, for example in this case the bride and groom would be starting the party for their Mexican wedding to the rhythm of Cielito lindo or México lindo and querido sung by native Mexicans.
This would be a really fun option for all audiences!
A DJ booth for the liveliest weddings
If after the pop and rock music, you want to end the night with real energy, having a DJ to play until the early hours of the morning is the perfect choice!
With the best playlists created by a professional DJ, everyone will gladly keep dancing until dawn, as you can add a very modern touch to your wedding with house, EDM, deep, reggaetón, etc., perfect for a more current and more contemporary crowd. You could even have smoke machines and laser beams. It’s the night to be youthful!
Famous singers
Of course you could hire one! Because if you want to surprise the newlyweds with their favourite singer, you could get them to come to your wedding and perform. Many famous people have already done this!
Can you imagine your wedding having a performance from singers such as Leiva, Malú, Pol 3.14, Niña Pastori, El Barrio, Julieta Venegas, Maná o Juan Magan?
Live music will be perfect for your wedding as it adds a unique and exclusive touch. Don’t hesitate to ensure that your wedding soundtrack represents you best!
