Postlude Wedding Music
Postlude wedding music sets a pleasant atmosphere as guests are exiting the ceremony location. It can last between 10 and 30 minutes, depending on whether you intend to do a receiving line for your guests immediately following your wedding ceremony. Some couples will also ask their live musicians to lead the guests out of the ceremony to the parking lot, or to the next location (cocktail hour or reception). Like the recessional music, postlude music should be lively and upbeat, adding the finishing touch to your beautiful ceremony.
