“Thank you ever so much, you made it even more special…didn’t get a chance to speak to you but I absolutely loved it , you are amazing 🥰 xx“ (Poppy (YV Bride)
Your wedding music should be as unique as your love story, and with my experience and expertise, I’m here to help craft the perfect soundtrack for your special day.
Using a blend of bespoke requests and carefully curated set lists, I create the perfect atmosphere for your guests - whether romantic, lively, elegant, or fun.
Don’t worry if you have “out there” requests - I’ve seen and performed countless weird and wonderful pieces and am always happy to make your dreams a reality.
This repertoire list showcases a range of established pieces to inspire you, but if there’s something you don’t see, just get in touch, and I’ll do my best to make it happen. It might be that I do have it, and it’s not made its way onto my published list just yet!

More About Your Wedding Ceremony Soundtrack
Your wedding ceremony music is a deeply personal part of your special day, and I’m here to bring your unique vision to life.
Whether you choose from my established repertoire or have a specific song in mind, the choice is entirely yours - even if it’s a piece you’ve discovered on social media or a favourite reel!
I’m also happy to perform hymns during church ceremonies and can collaborate seamlessly with your church organist if needed.
Whatever your dream ceremony soundtrack looks like, I’ll ensure it’s beautifully performed and truly memorable.
There are typically four main pieces/songs to select prior to your wedding day:
- The Entrance / Processional
- Signing the Register - piece 1
- Signing the Register - piece 2
- The Exit / Recessional
It is helpful for music choices to be submitted around two months prior to the big day to allow for ample preparation time and possible resource and/or sheet music development, particularly if some or all of your choices require bespoke arrangements.
Popular choices for ceremonies include…
Entrance / Processional
- ‘Canon in D’ by Pachelbel
- ’Wildest Dreams’ by Taylor Swift (from Bridgerton)
- ‘A Thousand Years’ by Christina Perri
- ‘Ave Maria’ by Schubert
- ‘At Last’ by Etta James
- ‘Can’t Help Falling in Love’ by Elvis
- ‘You Are the Reason’ by Calum Scott
Signing the Register
- ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’ from The Wizard of Oz
- Make You Feel My Love’ by Adele
- ‘All of Me’ by John Legend
- ‘Perfect’ by Ed Sheeran
- ‘What a Wonderful World’ by Louis Armstrong
- ‘Your Song’ by Elton John
Grand Exit / Recessional
- ‘Arrival of the Queen of Sheba’ by Handel
- ‘September’ by Earth, Wind & Fire
- ‘(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher by Jackie Wilson
- ‘Sky Full of Stars’ by Coldplay
- ‘Marry You’ by Bruno Mars
- ‘This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)’ by Natalie Cole

If you require a large number of bespoke pieces then a small additional fee may be required to cover the extra resources (sheet music / backing tracks, etc.) and time required to meet this request.
