Wedding Playlists Part 1: Prelude Music

Wel­come the Part 1 of 10 of my Wed­ding Music blog­ging series. Today, I present you with the playlist I cre­ated to be used as pre­lude music dur­ing the hour before the cer­e­mony. Rather than bor­ing live strings doing vague cov­ers of songs we love, we chose to have the DJ come and play the orig­i­nal songs so that the lyrics and feel of the music remained fully intact. We have no idea how many peo­ple actu­ally enjoyed this because we were tak­ing wed­ding party pho­tos at the other end of the build­ing, but if just one per­son appre­ci­ated this care­fully curated list of quiet love songs, I will be happy. Please let me know what you think of the selections!!
