Hello, lovebirds. Valentine’s Day is one of the most romantic times of the year, making it the perfect time to jump the broom. However, one needs that special detail to crystallize the moment of everlasting love and sweeping romance. We at Yazzie & Co. believe that that element of enchantment is music, for it clinches the passion that a Valentine’s Day wedding can bring forward. Not sure on where to start on selecting some sincerely romantic tunes? Read on for some of our great Valentine’s Day wedding song selections…
The first thing that you want to think about is finding that one song to walk down the aisle to. While magical romance is the first quality to look for in a tune, you also have to consider the location of your Valentine’s Day nuptials. If you plan on having yours in a place of worship, you must be mindful of the sensibilities of the man or woman of worship who is officiating over the ceremony. If you have a contemporary song in mind, you want to ensure that it isn’t at all offensive to them or the members of the place of worship. Should you decide that you do not want to run that risk, we suggest that you choose a classical selection. We think that Canon in D Major by Johann Pachelbel would wonderfully capture the beauty of a Valentine’s Day bride walking down the aisle to the instrumental harmony. However, if your place of worship is a bit more lenient with song choices, we believe that the late Luther Vandross’ classic, Here and Now, equally portrays the poignancy of a bride’s walking towards a new beginning with heartfelt lyrics and a wonderful voice.
Another important musical moment in a Valentine’s Day wedding is the first dance. The song that you choose should reflect one that has meaning to both you and your eternal Valentine. Whether the song is up-tempo or a slow groove, it should also display the overall mood and theme of your nuptials. If your groom is worried about being able to hold his own on the dance floor, he can rest easy in knowing that all eyes will be on the both of you celebrating the new life that you’ve begun to build. One of our favorite Valentine’s Day selections is Stevie Wonder’s Knocks Me off My Feet, for we believe that the simple words of love make for a classic bridal moment. Then again, if you want to use a more updated tune that reflects your modern sensibilities, we think that Come Close by Common featuring Mary J. Blige would serve as a great tune.
Whatever music you decide to feature for your Valentine’s nuptials, we at Yazzie & Co. believe that it should be reflective of the promise that you have decided to make to one another. Furthermore, a marvelous melody is destined to add that special significance to your special day. On that note, we’d love to know what songs capture that Valentine’s Day wedding spirit to you. E-mail me at yazzieblogger@yazzieco.com with your memories of the music that stole your heart and we’ll feature them in a future blog of ours.
With Lots of Valentine’s Love,
The Yazzie Blogger
