This is a list of 30 pieces of music that were played, over the past year, at Liverpool Celebrant wedding ceremonies.
The Beatles were featured quite a few times and Stevie Wonder's 'Signed, sealed, delivered' remains a favourite for the grand exit.
We also had the theme from Jurassic Park (there were lots of references to dinosaurs at that wedding, at the 'Bombed Out Church')
It was great to hear Love Shack, by The B-52's (at Hallmark Hotel, Sefton Park) - this song is a huge favourite from my past.
Pachelbel's Canon in D was played a few times, including live renditions on a harp and by a steel drum orchestra.
In addition to the versions in this compilation, we had amazing acapella singers, harpists, guitarists, pianists, saxophonists and the steel drum orchestra (you may see one of the drummers in this picture from The Palm House).
What every piece of music had in common was that they had been selected by each couple.
Sometimes, the reason that a piece of music was chosen was included in the ceremony itself, because it formed an intrinsic part of that couple's love story.
Sometimes, it was just a great piece of music that they liked.
I can honestly say that I enjoyed every single one...

Hi, I am Lorraine Hull, an award-winning Celebrant, based in Liverpool.
I am most usually asked to conduct ceremonies in North-West England and North Wales but I am happy to travel anywhere within the U.K. or abroad.
At the risk of shouting (and sounding extremely cheesy) "I LOVE MY JOB!".
I really love getting to know the couples and families that ask me to be part of their special celebration, whether that is for a Wedding/Civil Partnership, Renewal/Reaffirmation of Vows, Naming/Welcoming, or Celebration of Life/Funeral
I love hearing, writing and telling love and life stories (and also finding out about hopes and dreams - which are the stories of the future!)
I love to create and conduct unique, meaningful ceremonies that are perfect for each couple, individual, and/or family.
I love helping to create and celebrate happy and poignant moments, which form memories that will last a lifetime (that also includes the memories that I get to keep too - what's not to love?)
I believe that ALL people (and animals) should all be treated kindly, fairly and with respect.
I think for myself and act for others. I advocate anti-racism, the appreciation and celebration of diversity, dignity, justice, equity and equality for ALL through everything that I say and do: Love is Love, Family is Family, Life is Life.
You may like to know that I was trained to the highest level as a Celebrant and have continued my professional development. I hold Public Liability and Professional Indemnity insurance. I adhere to a strict code of conduct and I am committed to identifying, developing and sharing best practice with my Celebrant colleagues, so that we can all be the best Celebrants that we can possibly be.
