Chicago Wedding Band String Pop – How Sweet It Is (James Taylor) – Wedding String Quartet

Not only does our Chicago wedding band live for getting all of your guests out there on the dance floor, but we also can’t wait to meet with you to discuss your ceremony music! After choosing a song for walking down the aisle, the next most important tune to think about is the one for walking out after your ceremony has finished. It’s called the recessional, and this is the song that will kick off your first moments of being married, along with the first moments of your reception.

The party! This is the song that will catapult everyone into the party! YES!

Maybe you’ve known all along which song you want to exit to, or maybe you’re looking for ideas. If ideas are your thing, we’ve got one for you today:

Pull out all the stops with an instrumental version of this and your guests will swoon. It’s classic, and it’s fun. Even better, you’ll have a spring in your step and a smile on your face.

And when everyone knows the lyrics? SCORE! 

Have a listen, see if this one is a good fit for you. 

We’re going to keep things short today, in honor of St. Patrick 🍀
