Choosing Your Wedding Hymns

For a religious ceremony, a very important role to play songs and songs of your choice should be personal. However, many of us did not attend church services for some time and our knowledge of the hymns, is perhaps the only song we sang at school. If you're in trouble choosing songs for your ceremony, here are ten tips to make your choice:


Traditional religious hymns, usually two. First performed by the bride arrived and the Minister welcomed the congregation. The second is sung after the church and to the underlying motives. If you have a third option, it can begin to be included after the wedding ceremony and before the prayer.

With so many songs to choose from, you can quickly feel overwhelmed, especially when many of them are unknown. Try the ones you know and you feel your guests will be familiar with. Choose a simple hymn to begin with, so your guests can warm up their vocal chords! Be careful, randomly choose something because you like the words or music. If you know your guests will not want it they just mime and all the sounds of the anthem apartment.


If you are not popular first hymns of all the people who live on earth, God and Father of mankind, the Lord of All Hope, Immortal Invisible.

For your second hymn to choose something softer and more melodic, especially from the spiritual part of the ceremony is sung - the vows and prayers. Popular choices include Morning Has Broken; living Lord, make me a channel of your peace, Be Still, in the presence of the Lord, the Lord my shepherd.


All Things Bright and Beautiful;, one step at Praise My Soul the King of Heaven: If you decide to incite third hymn anthem, which is well known, and each candidate in. Here, your voice can solve the world Go, the great name of Jesus, guide me on You are the Redeemer.

Beware of some hymns with more than one melody, songs, and if so, then you can always choose the better-known version. Make sure the organist knows which version you need.

Check the chosen hymns and language in it. Some songs contain lines that are not suitable for a wedding, how to fight the good fight, for example. Your Minister, as a rule, I agree with you a list of hymn, but some songs can still lead to objections.


Many of the songs will be up to eight poems that may be too long for you and your guests, so clever, and perhaps reduce his only four verses. You will also be your servant, when it comes to reducing and hymns at the ceremony, they are included to make an announcement about the verse numbers. If you use a printed order of service, you can choose the number of your poems are.


It should be your servant, if there is a choice between traditional and contemporary songs and books when you can take home to read in their spare time. Remember that you do not need to make a choice once you make the church records.
