Prelude or pre-ceremony music sets the tone for the wedding ceremony while the guests are arriving and making their way onto their seats.
It is ideal to allot 30 minutes of prelude music if you are having a big wedding (200+ guests) and 15 minutes for a small wedding with less than 200 guests.
Regardless of your guest count, we recommend choosing 12 songs for the prelude. The music will entertain your guests in the case of unforeseen delays and ease them into a romantic mood.Â
Select your favorite love songs from our playlist that your guests will enjoy while waiting for the ceremony to start.
