WEDDING SOUNDS

date posted: March 29, 2021

We’re hoping that by the time your wedding comes along, restrictions on gatherings, dancing, and live performance will be but an unpleasant memory. That said, the charm of micro-nuptials and elopements, and the versatility and convenience of virtual gatherings, are here to stay.

But one thing will never change: In addition to food, drink, officiant, and each other, many wedding duos consider a great soundtrack essential to a day full of forever memories. So here are some notes to hit if you’re planning something innovative:

Think outside your musical lane and consider an in-scale live performance. Steel drum bands, duos and trios, a capella, and chamber musicians can bring right-sized sounds to your party with ease.

Consider making your own playlist on your phone—it’s much less daunting for an intimate 90-minute event than for a four-hour marathon—and then bringing or renting speakers to connect to your phone. Some restaurants and halls may already have great speakers you can use.

For a virtual ceremony and/or reception, many DJs and musicians have expanded their skill sets to include streaming your favorites at just the right moment for maximum impact, while helping you coordinate virtual backgrounds, slideshows, and special effects.
