Picture sweet instrumental music being played when you say your ‘I Do’s or fun music being played when dancing with a backdrop of lights. As seen and heard everywhere today, there seems to be no end to choices when it comes to selecting the right kind of music for weddings, and jazz has been decided the least detrimental of all types of music to woo loving couples who wish to add an air of maturity to their marriage ceremony. In my opinion, wedding jazz trio provides something special and unique, which has connection with tradition and contemporary times.
Now let’s find out why hiring a jazz trio could be one of the best decisions you can make while choosing the music for your special day.
The popularity of jazz music for weddings
It effortlessly captures the imagination of the lovers who envision their big day through the sound of jazz music. The soft and ‘singing’ sounds of the instruments as well as the complex patterns of the beats make it ideal for love scenes.
Perhaps, one of the returns many couples seek in jazz is its diversity. Whether it is traditional designed courses or contemporary ones, jazz music suits perfectly to any theme. No matter if it is a traditional wedding inspired by the roaring twenties or a modern wedding, it works perfectly.
Also, it is quite interesting when playing a jazz, as it is mostly improvised. Since musicians are able to observe and assess the atmosphere in a given room, they can understand and adapt to the given environment and ensure that the guests enjoy their stay.
There is no other way that a genre can calm or excite one as it does. Having a soft tune by saxophone during your first dance or having pianist play good tunes as guests arrive is something that guests will remember for many years to come after the celebration. For such reason, it is not surprising that many select Jazz as one of the songs for their wedding reception.
The unique charm and versatility of a jazz trio
There is a special charm in having a wedding jazz trio which few other settings can be compared to. This is so because of the simplicity of the group where the entire trio has the capacity to create such an outstanding performance. These three instruments; piano, bass and drum are used and they supplement each other to produce melodies and rhythms.
This versatility enables them to perform different weddings depending with the choice of the couple. Whether it is a formal wedding ceremony or an energetic reception the jazz trio easily finds its place. They are capable of changing from slow songs for cocktail to dance music and back in a blink of an eye.
Their barb is also colorful because they enjoy giving performance that seem rather impromptu and unplanned. It allows control over the mood on the fly for promotions based on the guest’s feedback or another memorable event during your event. Every time you get a feeling that you are the only person who is undergoing the ordeal and that your guests are your very guests and not anyone else’s adding that personal touch every couple wants on his/her big day.
How a jazz trio can enhance the atmosphere of your wedding
Having a jazz trio make for any marvelous wedding feel as they perform and dance. The sweet tunes and properly composed beats give the impression of being subtle, and at the same time, classy. Guests can make conversations, joke and even dance without feeling that the volume level is overwhelming them.
Think about how romantic and inspiring the heralds sounds will be during an open air ceremony or a share of the vow. It can be just a voice of saxophone or guitar melodies. Much of its charm really can’t be captured by larger groups of musicians; it is intimate and sweet.
In cocktail hour the trio can make it even exciting for you. This was the power displayed by their capacity to crank out back well known songs with a jazzy twist thus ensuring that morale was kept high enough to encourage conversations among the guests.
Different styles present in the music of jazz such as swing, bossa nova etc. bring in certain layers of variety that could suit every guest present there. Regardless if you need music for dancing or for dinner they are always able to switch it up throughout your special occasion.
Personalized song selection and special requests
A definite advantage of choosing a jazz trio for wedding is that such musicians are completely free in choosing what they want to perform. It also comes in a playlist where you can modify according to your story of how you came to love each other.
Indeed, one must envision having a jazz number played for one during the aisle leading to the wedding altar. It is always beautiful to have a talented trio because it becomes easy to sing any song of your choice with the help of the trio and the soulful melodies, and beautiful harmonies created will always feel you and your partner.
They also accept special request as well. Be it a new version of a song that has been out since time immemorial or a hit from today’s generation, they will do everything in their power to ensure they sang it like they wanted it to be sang. All this creates layer over layer of meaning in each encounter or interaction that occurs at personal level.
In addition, musicians who are aware of your vision enables one to have musical interludes all over the day. Entertainment during cocktail hour can bring the right atmosphere and at the same time give your guests and you something to remember.
How hiring a jazz trio can save money compared to larger bands
Weddings can be expensive. People who are in relationships hope to find ways through which they could save some money, but not necessarily at the cost of the quality of the eating area and the general atmosphere which they provide. For people, who desire live a jazz trio is a perfect solution for those who can hire it without overpaying.
It is so, that the bands of greater size need more performers, which in turn leads to a higher cost. Jazz trio means a combination of three very skilled musicians; yet it is more inexpensive as compared to the other musical ensembles of equal quality. It still does so while still comprising a smaller number that still provides that full bodied sound expected at weddings.
Besides, many wedding venues are challenged with restrictions in terms of space and sound. A jazz trio is not obtrusive at all, and it complements the ambiance without posing a problem in terms of music volume or loudness.
When the number of members decreases, then there are few things that are involved in the coordination and management of logistics. Better yet, the initiative would involve signing fewer contracts, which in turn, would imply less paper work, as well as, potentially, less expenses on travel.
Most couples do not have to drain their pockets hiring live bands; especially not a jazz trio – this is for sure a perfect scenario for any wedding.
