The Wedding Ceremony Music Planning Guide
by Rosanne Ferreri-Feske

Ceremony music usually receives little or no attention in most wedding planning guides; their limited description of a wedding ceremony is usually followed by a list of pop tunes that most ministers will find unacceptable. To remedy this lack, I have created a guide that will walk you through the different parts of a wedding ceremony, give you a wide variety of traditional and contemporary pieces appropriate for each part, and help you plan for meetings with your musicians and minister. I owned a wedding business called Wedding Song from 1983-1993 and, based on those experiences, I’ve written this guide in a candid (and often humorous manner), so you can understand the typical “pitfalls” and avoid them. Since then, I’ve worked as an Event Manager, the Regional Manager of The Wedding Guide of Tennessee,  and web designer for The New Tennessee Woman www.thenewtnwoman.com and www.patrickferreri.com
