Walking In A Winter Wonderland
| Q | We're planning a festive wedding in winter; how can we enhance our celebrations through music? |
| A | Christopher Langdown says: In years gone by, families and friends loved to gather together around the piano to sing Christmas carols. Today, the piano still creates a magical atmosphere at Christmastime. For a winter wedding, timeless classics such as White Christmas, Winter Wonderland, Sleigh Ride, Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas and The Christmas Song work well on the piano. Along with this, traditional carols such as Silent Night, The Holly & The Ivy, I Saw Three Ships, Ding Dong Merrily on High and We Wish You A Merry Christmas can add a wonderfully nostalgic ambience. Additionally, you can't go wrong requesting ever-popular Christmas songs such as Last Christmas, Stay, I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day, Driving Home For Christmas, Jingle Bell Rock and themes from The Snowman and The Polar Express. If you're having a post-Christmas wedding, romantic love songs usually feature strongly as our thoughts move towards St Valentine's Day. Thanks to the fantastic versatility of the piano, all these different musical styles will sound equally good on the instrument and provide some variety, which all your guests will enjoy |
