Choosing beach wedding music for your beach wedding ceremony and beach theme reception

Beach wedding music for a tropical themed wedding - Can't you just hear those steel drums? How about Calypso & Reggae? Don't forget Bob Marley! Music can really make a huge difference in the theme of your wedding. It can also say a lot about the two of you. So take your time and choose wisely. Get referrals, listen to sample CD's, or if possible hear them live, preferably at another beach wedding.

Here are some suggestions for ceremony and reception music that works well on the beach:

  • HARP
  • CLASSICAL GUITAR
  • CLASSICAL GUITAR AND FLUTE
  • VIOLINS
  • GUITAR AND VIOLIN
  • KEYBOARD
  • DJ
  • TAPED MUSIC
  • STEEL DRUM
  • STEEL DRUM AND GUITAR
  • If you are able to use the same music or part of it for your reception you will be able to get the best bang for your buck. For example, if you have a 5 piece Reggae band for the reception, you can ask for a single steel drum player to play for the beach wedding ceremony. The same if you are using a DJ, he may play for the ceremony and it will not cost as much as if you were to bring in a separate person.

    If you are planning a beach wedding celebration on the West Coast of Florida, I have found over the last twenty years, that Jay Goodley Entertainment to be the most reliable resources for entertainment with a great choice of variety for you to choose from. Whether it be live entertainment or a DJ, they book all types of entertainment. He has even gotten me fire dancers! They act will act as Master of Ceremonies for your wedding and rest assured, guests will be on the dance-floor having a great time!

    A word to the wise and a valuable piece of wedding advice: Feed the musicians and make sure they have beverages! They may or may not include meals in their contract, but if you feed them and make sure they have all the non-alcoholic beverages they need for the evening, it will pay off. Let's say the party is going strong and it is cut-off time according to their contract, you may get a few extra songs out of it without overtime charges if they are well-fed.
    Just remember one key factor when planning beach wedding music for your beach theme wedding: the elements. You are outside and you do not have control over your surroundings and mother nature.

    Wedding Songs and Music - WedAlert Wedding Song Directory offers soundclips of Ceremony Music; First Dance Songs; Mother / Son (Groom) Songs; Father / Daughter (Bride) Songs, and other music for your wedding reception.
