Looking Back on 2017….

Posted onCategoriesCeremony Music, updates

Happy 2018!  Looking back on 2017 we are so grateful that over 30 brides welcomed Simply Strings to come along side them and be part of one of the most important days of their lives.  We even had the opportunity to play for second and third siblings from weddings in years past.  It certainly is one of the greatest compliments when we are invited to play for multiple brides from the same family.  Thank you so much for allowing us to share our music with you!

As we planned music with each bride and gave the ceremony personal and unique touches in their selections, we saw some trends too!  As we are busy planning wedding music for our 2018 brides, I thought it would be fun to go back and find the most popular and requested songs in 2017…..so here you go!

Most Popular Processional Songs
1. Can’t Help Falling in Love
2. Canon in D
These are two timeless classics that are truly romantic and never get old!

Most Popular Recessional Songs
1. Here Comes the Sun
2. All You Need Is Love
3.  Signed, Sealed Delivered
4. This Will Be

Our most FUN new selection we added this year was by the request of a Chicago couple who loved the Cubs!  We just couldn’t say no to this one…..Check out our video of Go Cubs Go!  We played this hit during their cocktail hour and the Chicago crowd loved it!  We are always looking to add new music to our repertoire, so please, don’t hesitate to ask!  We aim to make the music at each of our events unforgettable so that you and your guests will remember it for years to come!  Please email us at info@simplystringslive.com for a current repertoire list.  Whether you want music that’s never been done before by a string quartet or classics, we are here to deliver a performance of a lifetime!

Happy Planning!
