Top 5 Wedding Ceremony Songs for Hertfordshire Couples

Planning your ceremony music can feel overwhelming – there are so many beautiful songs to choose from, and you want something that feels just right. Whether you’re walking down the aisle at Milling Barn, exchanging vows in Hatfield House’s garden, or tying the knot in a village church, the right song can make that moment unforgettable.

Here are 5 of my favourite ceremony songs to perform for couples in Hertfordshire:

5. Your Song - Elton John

A classic that always gets nods of recognition and a few misty eyes. It holds an extra special place for me as this was my first dance dance with my wife.

4. Better Half of Me - Tom Walker

Underrated gem. Powerful lyrics, emotional build – great live.

3. A Thousand Years – Christina Perri

One my personal favourites - during my wedding, we had this as a signing of the register song.

2. Perfect - Ed Sheeran

One of the most popular first dance and aisle songs.

Can't Help Falling in Love - Elvis Presley

Timeless, romantic, and works beautifully with live acoustic looping. The song my wife walked down the aisle to.

I love learning your special song too – so if there’s a track that means something to you as a couple, let’s talk about how to make it perfect for your ceremony.

Testimonials

"Incredible Tom, thank you!"

He brought an amazing energy to the day and our guests were blown away by him – we had so many compliments from guests and our suppliers. Tom learnt Taylor Swift songs especially for us as I’m a huge fan and absolutely delivered.

I would highly recommend booking Tom for more than one part of your day... Incredible Tom, thank you!

"Perfect addition to our day"

Thank you Tom for what can only be described as an epic performance at our wedding! The ideal blend of that classic indie sound we love, with party mashups that kept us all guessing what was coming next. Incredible loop pedal skills and vocal harmonies were off the chart – we had trouble getting people inside for the wedding breakfast! Perfect addition to our day, loved it!

Cleo and Matt - Kent (Chilston Park)
