Add Some Magic To You Wedding Day With Enya’s Music

Enya is a famous talented Irish singer and composer who began her musical career in 1980s. Enya has performed her music in 10 languages and her work brought her four Grammy Awards. Her music is nice and sweet and perfect to create the mood for wedding day. Her voice is amazing and easy recognizable.




Enya is also one of my favorite artists. Here are some of her best songs for you to consider when you make your wedding playlist, especially if you are looking for nice songs with a Celtic flavor.

China Roses

This is a delicate 1995 song from The Memory of Trees album. The mandolin sound makes it great and unique.

Amarantine

This 2005 track can be found on the album with the same name. It is an elegant song which reached to the Top Twenty on the Adult Contemporary Charts. The title of the song was inspired by the mythic amaranth flower, which never fades out and it means “everlasting love“.

Book of Days

The song was released on the 1991 Shepherd Moons album and was also featured on Far and Away Motion Picture Soundtrack. It is a powerful and moving song including a very touching piano solo. The lyrics are about travel and the hopes that this can bring.

Wild Child

Originally from 2000′s A Day Without Rain album, this smooth sounding song is a tribute to living the moment.

Caribbean Blue

This song is considered to be among Enya’s deepest work. The color blue of the Caribbean Sea is the symbol of spirituality. The song combines a tropical mood with relaxing vibrations, making the listener feel he is on a Caribbean cruise.

The Memory of Trees

This is a 1995 track on The Memory of Trees album. It is an instrumental tune with few words and a melodic piano on background.
The Celts

This track is from Enya’s 1987 self-titled album. It was one of her most successful works. It is similar to a marching song, sung in Irish Gaelic. It brings a tribute to the endurance of the Celtic Spirit.

Cursum Perficio

This is a tune from the Watermark album. It sounds ominous and creepy, like a kind of incantation, due to its slow Latin lyrics. Thee translation of the title would be “I finish the course“.
Orinoco Flow

This is another song from the same album. The song is about the Orinoco River, one of the longest rivers in South America.

Hope Has A Place

This is a nice romantic song about love. Hope always has a place in lovers’ hearts. This song is great for a wedding day and you can even use it for your wedding ceremony because it is very inspirational. The song ends with the line: “Hope is home, and the heart is free.” What could be more beautiful?

It was hard to narrow the list because all Enya’s songs deserve special attention. These songs are accompanied by beautiful and suggestive videos. Enya’s music is very relaxing, magic, calm and positive and gives you the sensation of freedom. This makes it the perfect choice for your background dinner music. It will add a magic and mysterious touch to the beauty of your event.
