Musical Suggestions

Have your clergy approve your selections early; the soloist would appreciate having the selections several weeks in advance.

Any standard music is generally accepted for the seating period and while guests are waiting to be ushered out.

A special vocal or instrumental solo is nice to have after the bridal party (including parents) are ushered out,  in order to give them a moment before the guests leave their seats.
