Top Tips For Your Wedding Ceremony Songs

Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, and the music you choose can have a significant impact on the atmosphere of your ceremony. Whether you're a music buff or not, selecting the right songs for your wedding ceremony can be a daunting task. Here at Oberon Lane, we specialise in taking stress off your plate, and simplifying the mega-load of decisions you have to make about your wedding music. 

We offer fully customisable experiences and our artists will play up to three unique songs requests for your wedding. That’s one for the walk down the aisle, one for the signing of the register, and one for back up the aisle. We love playing beautiful acoustic versions of your favourite songs to set the perfect vibe at your ceremony, but we are also happy to play the original tracks off Spotify if that’s what you want to hear, especially for the celebratory back up the aisle song. So now you know that we can facilitate anything your heart desires, you just have to pick the songs. Luckily, we’re here to help with that too.

First of all, you need to pick your aisle song. This should be gentle and sit at a slow tempo that will create the perfect emotional ambiance. One of the benefits of including live music in your wedding ceremony, is that out Oberon Lane artists are able to shorten, and lengthen your aisle song on the spot based on how long the bridal party takes to walk down the aisle. Here are some of our top picks: 

Can’t Help Falling In Love - Elvis Presley (the Kina Grannis version is super popular)

I Get To Love You - Ruelle

Tenerife Sea - Ed Sheeran

After a majestic walk down the aisle and a tear-jerking ceremony, you and your partner will need to take a few minutes to sign your marriage license. To keep the momentum going, you should select a song that is moderate in tempo and reflects the happiness and love that everyone at your wedding will be feeling. Consider the following:

Bloom - The Paper Kites

This Old Love - Lior

How Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You - James Taylor

You’ve said your vows, you’ve signed the papers, you’ve sealed the deal with a kiss, and now you’re ready to walk back up that aisle and celebrate! Your celebratory song can be performed live, or the original track can be played from Spotify to really make an impact. Here are some of our favourite songs:

This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) – Natalie Cole

Latch – Disclosure, Sam Smith

(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher & Higher – Jackie Wilson

Wait, we have one more song suggestion! We would like to leave you with one of the most beautiful love songs written in the past few years, perfect for any part of your ceremony. Do yourself a favour and listen to:
