Wedding music

[KAT&Allie 0]

Seems like a big waste to invite so many people only for them to leave early cos they are having a miserable time.

I knew this is going to bite me eventually... you see, I put my foot down on number of people to be invited (mainly because I hate crowds ) so we shall be having only close family and friends. The agreement is to keep it under 50 of which 30 are his family alone . Out of all people that will be invited only my parents, his father and I won't enjoy grunge music. The parents can turn their hearing aids off and I'll be coming equipped with ear defenders, so the rest will hopefully enjoy themselves . It might be his wedding but it's mine too and I know he's smart enough not to want to start his married life sleeping with his dog instead of me .

Well, by compromise... I mean compromise....

I certainly dont mean an entire night of Nirvana or screaming Death Metal... I am pretty hardcore by most people's standards but all the screaming can be a bit much.

I'm quite sure you can find a song or two that would suit even this most special day by making your H2B happy and without offending anyone else.

IMO the more diverse the music is, the better.

We had keltic music; 70's rock; blues; jazz; even marching band music.

Mix it up and let it be fun. Nobody is going to leave because of a tune or two.

A few tunes is one thing, the wedding I went to was non-stop screeching thrash. Not my idea of a party. It sucked azz.

Oh, I forgot to say that he's in charge of music... And well, I suppose, just about everything else apart from my dress . As he's local to the event, it made sense for him to take over organising everything (and no, he didn't mind all that much and I was more than willing to let him do it). It's difficult to plan a wedding being 4000 miles away and more than a bit worrying not to be able to participate more . And the first challenge we encountered is the music choice. If it was up to me, we'd have a ceilidh

BTW, he said thanks for the support. We thought it would be a more in my favour .

On the other end of the music spectrum, it would also have been a lousy party if it had been all Lawrence Welk-ish.

Wedding music should reflect the couples taste, but take into consideration that other guests will be there too.

There is just something very weird about that.
