Occasional Brass and Strings: Songlist and Sound Samples: Wedding and Ceremonial Music

Wedding and Ceremonial Music

Your wedding is a special day, and live music adds an elegant touch to the event. Occasional Brass has a large number of trumpet/organ, brass trio/quartet/quintet, and string trio/quartet arrangements of the most popular wedding music. Whether you listen to your Mother (or future Mother-In-Law) and go with the traditional bridal march, or want to pick something all your own, we have the right music for you.

NEW! Also take a look at our wedding ceremony music page, which explains the various parts of the wedding service, examples of each type of piece, and the types of musicians and ensembles to hire for different types of weddings.
