Our Guide to Picking Your Wedding Songs

May 16, 2024 By blueaven

 

We all know that your wedding day really is only as good as the songs you choose, and picking the right music can really make or break your day. From the walk down the aisle to the very last dance, making sure you have the right tunes for every occasion is crucial when it comes to having your dream wedding day. 

But there’s so many songs out there, so selecting the perfect tracklist can feel like a real mission, here’s our Blue Avenue Entertainment guide to simplify picking the songs for your wedding!

The Ceremony 

The ceremony is the main part of your wedding day, it’s when you say “I do” and the music you choose should aim to reflect the significance of the day. When you walk down the aisle, consider choosing something instrumental, and as you exchange vows and rings consider having low volume instrumental music playing in the background. 

The exit song is where you can really have the most fun when it comes to your ceremony! Choose a song that resonates with you and your partner so you can boogey your way back down the aisle as newlyweds. 

The Reception 

The reception is where the party really gets started. It’s time to let loose, celebrate and dance the night away with your nearest and dearest. When choosing the music for the reception, you’ll want to have a range of different genres and eras so that everyone there has something they know to dance too. 

Whether you choose a live band, a wedding DJ or a combination of both, it’s completely up to you but make sure you keep it upbeat and from a bunch of different genres that reflect you and your partners personalities to keep the energy high throughout the evening. 

Customise It 

You want to remember that choosing your wedding music isn’t an exact science, and ultimately – it’s completely up to you! It’s your day! Customise the music to yours and your partner’s tastes and consider adding meaningful songs that help to reflect your relationship. Choose songs from your favourite bands, your favourite genre or your favourite eras to keep the vibes high. 

The key when it comes to choosing wedding music is choosing music that speaks to you! It’s your wedding after all and you get the final say when it comes to the kind of music you want to play for your big day. 

Choose The Music You Love 

When it comes to your wedding day, choose a wedding band and music that you love! If you want to work alongside a live band or a wedding DJ, our team at Blue Avenue Entertainment can help! Our team can help you customise your wedding music to suit your vibe and your taste. 

Make sure your wedding day has a soundtrack to remember by working alongside our team. Contact a member of our team today to find out how we can help you curate the wedding playlist you’ve always dreamed of.

We used this service for our wedding and hired masterblasters and Jace. They were absolutely fantastic on the day, surpassing our expectations and delivering a brilliant performance throughout the entire day. They along with Anthony were a calm and helpful presence from the get go. Would highly recommend for a wedding day

Watched Downtime performed at a Christmas party I was at, hands down the best Jazz band i've heard in Melbourne. Will use them for my next event :)

Soul City were the entertainment at our work event and they were incredible! The dancefloor was full and the selection of songs were a hit with everyone. We will definitely book them again next year!

Working with Anthony was an absolute breeze. We were privileged enough to have House of Soul play for our wedding and they were beyond fantastic. Ricky, Carla and the band had everyone dancing, engaged and in awe of their talent. Not only are they talented but they are beautiful people. From the moment we got in contact with Anthony we knew we had made a great decision. He had everything under control and was liaising with the venue to ensure a perfect night. We couldn’t recommend enough. We are thinking of the next event we can quickly organise just to do it all again!

My partner and I booked Downtime band for our wedding through Blue Avenue Entertainment in March this year and were absolutely thrilled with them. Anthony (the manager) was very accommodating, friendly and professional, and a very efficient communicator which made the booking process very stress-free which we were so grateful for during our wedding planning! The band were absolutely incredible - really gifted at what they do and they really understood the vibe we were going for - the set list they put together was perfect. So many of our guests gave us feedback on how fantastic the band was, and everyone was up and dancing which really made our night. I’m so glad we decided to book with them and highly recommend them!

We booked a band via Blue Avenue Entertainment for our wedding. I am so glad that we did! Anthony (the manager) was great. He was very organised and easy to communicate with. When the band we had booked cancelled 8 weeks out from the wedding, Anthony very swiftly found a replacement band that were even better than the original! I really recommend booking via Blue Avenue Entertainment. Thanks Anthony!

OMG what a treat it was to have Downtime at a recent wedding I was photographing! Their music was the perfect addition to the reception :) The band members are incredibly talented! They were a hit with the guests and I loved capturing the joy and energy they were giving off. They were also super friendly and easy to work with, making my job as a photographer a breeze! I highly recommend these guys for any events :)
