Music theme

Hey,
I plan to make music a bit part of the wedding. Thinking of having the hard rock cafe for my reception venue as that would be amazing.
You could take their lead and have music idol inspired menu's or table names. My sister suggested having a guitar for everyone to sign instead of a guest book.
What genre or style of music where you thinking? or just general?
Plastic microphones filled with sweets for favours, karaoke, star backgrounds, you can get LED dancefloors from http://www.iceentertainmentuk.co.uk/
Make your invitation an audio track and burn it to a CD, or upload it to a file sharing site and send to friends/family.

Hope that helps :D

Music theme

Hello there,

My colour theme is pink, chocolate and ivory but also my fiance and i are musical so we have to have this somewhere.

For our favours i am making cookies and the cutter will be a quaver note. Our table names are also going to be composers. I am also hoping to get a music themed cake topper!

I have seen really inspiring musical centre pieces for the table and also small musical instruments such as tambourines etc as favours and place names attached. I have also seen end of pews decorations which are musical wrapping paper shaped into a cone with petals/flowers in the top, with ribbon attached so as to be able to hang on the end of pews.

www.projectwedding.com might have some ideas.

Good luck and have fun!

For centerpieces...how about getting some old 12" vinyl records as the base? There are loads of seconds hand stored dotted around the country.

Also you could use vinyl records as placemats and put yuor guests' names in the middle. You can buy white label records so you can write or print a label to go in the middle. Do you like that idea?

thanks for all the great ideas keep them coming came across some more ideas here goes

confetti cones made out of sheet music,
instead of a order of service we shall have a "play list",
our table plan will be named after iconic artist such as MJ, with pics of us dressed as the artist .
our videographer is going to make a music video starring the guests,

i cant decided on favours its between a tamborine or a tree, as i got him a tree for valentines day we planted in loch lomand. he said it was the best present he's had and we still go visit it and watch it grow, sounds like cheese but we love it

keep ideas coming folks

We went to a wedding recently and the band Party Siempre (which were superb) played an 80s themed set as well as a normal dance-set. We're trying to book them for our event! They are at www.partysiempre.com.
Good luck!
