Song suggestions

Ave Maria by Schubert.

You'll probably recognise this one! Its very well known and particularly appropriate during a Church service as it is the Hail Mary in Latin.

Ave Maria by Caccini.

This is a lesser known version of the Ave Maria. It’s gentle melody rises and falls with gentle movement.

Can't help Lovin' Dat Man by Jerome Kerns

A fun, upbeat jazzy piece which articulates the ecstasy of being in love!

Caro Mio Ben by Giordani.

This little gem is a long standing feature of the classical repertoire and would be great during the signing of the register.

Ombra Mai Fu by Handel

You might recognise this one too, an incredible piece. A very gentle, poised Baroque aria whose words translate to mean 'Never did leaves make shadows so sweet and gentle’.

O Mio Babino Caro by Puccini.

This is a beautiful Italian aria from the opera Gianni Schichi. It is sung as a plea from a daughter to her father as she begs him to allow her to marry the man she loves.

No Frontiers, originally sung by the Corrs

The powerful harmonies and touching words of this piece are sure to capture you and your guests.

Panis Angelicus by Cesar Franck.

This translates as 'Bread of Angels' and thus works well during Communion.

The Prayer by Celine Dion

This lovely song works well during the signing of the register or as a reflection on its own. The lyrics reflect on the life ahead of a newly married couple and pray for happiness and guidance.

Time to say Goodbye by Francesco Sartori

Sung in Italian, 'Con te partiro' translates to mean 'I'll go with you' - perfect for a wedding!
