More than likely, your guests have been to a wedding before. Many of these weddings may feel the same, but we guarantee that yours won’t! Your wedding is a resemblance of the love of you and your partner; a unique adventure that only the two of you will experience together. At MARX, we encourage our couples to think outside of the box, especially when it comes to their music selection.
When you walk down the aisle, many people use traditional songs like Canon in D or Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Lucky for you, with a wide range of access to music, our Cape Cod DJs can help provide you with a wide range of songs to choose from. From underground indie tracks to something up-beat that takes your guests by surprise, you are the conductor and anything goes. Not to mention that there are not rules of how you have to run your wedding day because it is exactly that: YOUR wedding day. And what about the recessional? Most of the time, people think about the father daughter dance, their first dance or which of the Cha-Cha Slides they’ll be playing at their reception. What many people forget is that they need to choose a song that the newly weds will walk away from as partners for life! This is the first time that the world will see the two of you together as a married couple and choosing the perfect song will make quite the impact.

Even if the music doesn’t necessarily fit the tone of your entire wedding, you can always find a more classical approach to a more untraditional song that is out there to help create the ambiance that you desire.
