Classical music is one of the most popular choices for Orlando wedding ceremony music. Using classical music for wedding ceremonies adds a sense of sophistication and class. There are many other reasons that classical music works wonderfully for wedding ceremonies and is so popular.  I will discuss some of them and you can decide if classical is the right choice for your wedding music.

When you are shopping for a wedding dress most brides want something that will not look silly and dated in pictures and videos years from now. Most brides look for something more timeless.  When it comes to choosing wedding ceremony music, couples often do not think of timelessness and select music of the current trend.  Current music makes a statement that day but when looking back at videos 25 and 50 years from now will you think, “what was I thinking?”  Classical music has stood the test of time for hundreds of years and will always sound timeless.

What tone are you trying to set for your wedding ceremony?  The music plays an important role in setting the wedding ceremony tone.  If you are having an elegant, sophisticated, royal or luxurious wedding, classical music will set the tone. Classical music is so varied and vast that it can be used for almost any tone and many themes like: winter wonderland, autumn, spring, summer, flowers, simple, fun, Halloween, Christmas etc.

Religious wedding ceremonies often have music restrictions.  Choosing classical music from the large variety of sacred classical music can easily fit any church’s wedding music guidelines.  Some religions and churches also have restrictions on what instruments can be used and most classical ensembles are acceptable under these restrictions.

Most traditional wedding ceremonies have a somewhat serious tone to accompany the serious and important nature of the vows being taken.  Using classical music can help highlight the importance and significance of these important vows.

When selecting music for your wedding ceremony it is important to think about all of your guests.  One kind of music that everyone can enjoy and won’t offend anyone’s ear or sense of taste is classical.  It won’t be too harsh or loud for your older guests. Although classical music may not be what all of your guests normally listen to, it is used so frequently in TV shows, commercials, movies and schools that it’s something that everyone can relate to in some way.
