Celtic Wedding Songs

The Medieval theme of your wedding celebration has gotten you involved in a lot of research starting from the very first step of the planning and reaching the last ones. The idea of celebrating the wedding in a medieval style was the spark to light the fire of these constant researches that you had moments when you felt like leaving everything aside and off you went! But when these moments were too overwhelming to resist to, you had all the time your parents’ support and your groom’s who have been there next to you through all the researches you had to do right from the first days of the planning.

They were there to help you with the choice of medieval aspect of your wedding cards, for in the end to decide on the Celtic period and its magical symbols that fill the pages of Irish history and cultural inheritance. The Celtic period was also the one to be depicted by the design of your wedding gown, and so on. Now that you are almost at the end of your planning, all the things having been purchased and ordered for, you are at the stage where the medieval songs should be selected in order to compose the musical and emotional atmosphere of your wedding celebration.

One of the previous days, your groom accidentally bumped into an Internet Radio Station that was broadcasting Celtic Music for the wedding events; the station was playing these Celtic wedding songs in order to help brides and grooms who were in search of a specific music that had the romance and the old notes of the Celts wandering on the green pastures singing tunes of love for their beloved ones. You have previously tried to locate this medieval music inside the stations that were broadcasting classical pieces, but your musical knowledge is not that complex for you to make the distinction between the notes of a classical piece and that of medieval one.

To you Antonio Vivaldi could be as well a composer that lived in the times of the medieval Celtic people, especially that the sounds of the strings so present in his works are the ones that drives your mind back to those times. But now, having this Radio Station playing ‘online’ you might as well select the pieces that seem more appropriate to the variety of events displayed inside the wedding festivity.  Each event displayed carries within itself a significance, its own story which is totally different form the story revealed by the previous event, therefore you have to find the specific Celtic wedding songs which reflect the spirit of the event’s magical story.

At the end of days of audition you make a list to comprise: “Shepherd’s serenade”, “Bridal Chorus”, “Lady Faery”, “Wild mountain thyme”, “The kiss” (this one included in the movie called “Last of the Mohicans”), “My Irish Valentine”, “The bridge”, “Maids in the meadow”, “Eleanor Plunkett” and “Health to the company”. All is left to do now is to have them incorporated in the musical ambiance of your wedding and from that moment on the wedding day might come with trumpets and bells announcing everybody about your medieval themed festivity.
