Below are examples of how music is commonly planned across different parts of an event. These are sample styles and approaches — every event is customized.
Ceremony/Opening Music
Music designed to set the tone as guests arrive and the event begins. Selections are often instrumental or lightly produced and chosen to feel appropriate for the setting and moment.
Cocktail Hours/Early Event
Music that creates a welcoming atmosphere while guests mingle. This often includes familiar favorites and feel-good tracks that keep the energy light without overpowering conversation.
Dinner/Background Music
Music that supports the ambiance of the space while allowing guests to comfortably talk and enjoy the event. Selections typically lean toward mellow, polished tracks that maintain warmth and flow.
Reception/Late Night
High-energy music built around the audience and the desired vibe. From popular throwbacks to current hits and crowd-pleasers, this portion of the event is designed to keep guests engaged and the energy up.
