Drinks reception music
Your drinks reception music choices should reflect the mood you want. After the wedding ceremony or service, people gather for photographs and chat as drinks and canapés are served, usually outside if the weather is clement. This is a great opportunity to set the mood by making the right choices for the music.
Our wedding day was amazing, as everything seemed to come together perfectly – in no small part due to your role as master of ceremonies and the little touches and unobtrusive background music that really helped the flow of the day. The music for the ceremony was superb and the disco in the evening was excellent – the dance floor was always busy and the choice of music just what we wanted

Your music choices for the drinks reception
Let me create a unique and personalised playlist for you and your guests. I will provide a very high quality but discreet Bose sound system so that your music choices are played at the right volume for all to enjoy. If this is outside, I can also provide a battery powered system which will work anywhere. I will produce a background music list based on your choices of music, reflecting your tastes. In the same way as the wedding breakfast, the mood can be set simply by selecting the type of music.
Classical music will provide a formal and classy mood. Jazz and swing will give a stylish and upbeat mood. Big ballads will convey love. Chillout will provide a contemporary cool laid back mood. How about film themes for a fun mood? Reggae, Calypso and Soca will raise a mood of Carnival, and yesteryears party hits will give you an all day party atmosphere.
Allow me to help inspire you with your music selections for the drinks reception. Best of all, there will be no awkward silences, and no use of that dreaded repeat button!
Here, you will find a few background music ideas you could use.
