A great way to personalize your wedding is through the music. You are not bound by any laws to have Wagner’s ‘Bridal Chorus from Lohengrin’ aka ‘Here Comes the Bride’ playing as you make your grand entrance. Choose music that lets your guests know who you are. Wait until you read about the musical choices today’s featured ‘Real Wedding‘ couple made at their wedding. Let the music move you throughout the day!

When seeking entertainment for your ceremony and reception, review all of your options. Say I DO to Checking Out the Local Music Scene. Locally grown produce is all the rage in catering, why not make “locally grown” musicians the next big thing at your celebration. There are so many talented musicians who could provide entertainment for your event. Not just reception music, but small ensemble musicians who play classical ceremony music. The best part is going to all the local venues to hear great live music!

The bride always makes a grand entrance! How the couple chooses to leave can be just as awe-inspiring.

It is tempting to get caught up in the “registry rush.” The thrill of finding the perfect items to feather your nest is overpowering. However, why not say I DON’T Need to Register Everywhere. Register wisely. For example, there are many registries that focus strictly on your honeymoon. Back in July we featured Honeymoon Wishes which allows guests to not only contribute to travel expenses, but they can gift you packages such as sporting excursions, spa treatments, dining experiences and the list goes on! You will benefit by having your honeymoon paid for and enjoy knowing that your friends and family were a part of such a wonderful experience.

We’re soaring to the wild blue yonder with Napa Valley Balloons. Witnessing the beauty of Wine Country from the perspective of a balloon can reveal a whole other world. A sense of serenity is felt as you are lifted far above the vineyards to truly appreciate the enchantment of the valley. Upon your landing you will enjoy a champagne brunch and the opportunity to relive the magic found in the bright, blue sky.

A poll we conducted on entertainment made it clear that most of our readers want to leave the music to the professionals. We can all agree that the best entertainment value does come from putting your trust in someone who is highly skilled in their profession. However, consider saying I DO to Your iPod. Who knows your musical tastes better than your iPod? Not every aspect of your wedding should be left in the care of your mp3 player, but you can save a few dollars by choosing your own music for the ceremony and cocktail hour. The money you save in those areas can be put toward getting your dream band or DJ.
