Romantic Ideas for Romantic Birthday Gift
Wanting to do something memorable for her partner, Sara asked Music Remembrance to customize a romantic singing telegram. Receiving a romantic gift is more fun to receive when others can share is seeing how much your significant other loves you. This is why this Orlando Romantic singing telegram is delivered at work. The recipient is a pastry chef at her own restaurant. This singer and guitarist dressed in tuxedos enter the restaurant and walk up to the pastry counter where the birthday girl is working. They make an announcement and begin singing “Never Stop” by SafetySuit. Then they present her with a bouquet of flowers and read a note written by her significant other wishing her a happy birthday and telling her how truly loved she is. See the video.
Romantic Ideas For Anniversary
It’s Anniversary week and you haven’t thought of a gift yet. One of our clients found himself in this position. It was their first anniversary after having a baby and he had to be away on business. He surprised her with a singing telegram at her doorstep.
The singer rings the doorbell with flowers in hand. The husband who was on the phone with her says “answer the door, you have a delivery”. The vocalist hands her flowers and announces “your husband dedicates these special songs to you to remind you how much he loves you and always will” The singer, accompanied by a guitarist, sings John Michael Montgomery’s, “I Love the Way You Love Me”. The last verse is custom lyrics about their relationship and his love for her. The wife teared up through the whole thing and cried during the custom verses. What a sweet husband to do this for her.
Romantic Ideas for Proposal/Engagement
The boyfriend takes his girlfriend out to dinner. He says ” Lets take a stroll at the park across the street. What she doesn’t know is that he has made plans to propose there. Set up at the gazebo are flowers and candles. They come up to the gazebo and she is wondering if someone is having an event. He guides her to the gazebo and then as she turns around a singer starts to sing “Sing John Legend’s All of Me. Their song.

Top 10 Traditional String Wedding Music Songs
There are many beautiful classical pieces string wedding music. These are what I believe are the ten most popular for wedding ceremonies.
String wedding music is elegant and understated. It stands alone and creates a sophisticated elegant mood. To add royal grandeur to the bridal entrance, add a fanfare before the bride on fanfare trumpets or add a trumpet, organ, brass quartet or quintet to the bridal processional song. I am suggesting songs below that this works especially well with.
1 Canon in D by Pachelbel
This beautiful and elegant song has a calm sophisticated sound. It is commonly called Pachelbel’s Canon and is often seen spelled in its original German spelling of kanon. Because of its mellow sound it is often used for bridesmaids or for brides that would like an understated elegant entrance rather that a grand royal entrance. This song is probably the most famous string wedding music.
2. Jesu Joy of Man’s Desiring by Bach
You may not be familiar with the name of this song but I think almost everyone will recognize it. It is understated and elegant and often used for mother’s seating, bridal party or for an elegant bridal entrance.
3. Wedding March by Mendelssohn
This song is the traditional song for the recessional (bridal party exit music at the end of the wedding ceremony). You will recognize this one right away. Most Catholic and some other churches do not allow this song because it is not a sacred song.
4. Bridal Chorus also known as Here Comes the Bride by Wagner
This is the most traditional song for the bridal processional and is familiar to everyone. It is so recognizable that it is only used for the bride and would not be a good choice for the bridal party. If it is used people may stand, expecting the bride. Most Catholic and some other churches do not allow this song because it is not a sacred song.
5. La Rejouissance by Handel
This grand piece is used for processionals and recessionals. Adds a royal flair to your wedding. Some brides and grooms add brass or organ to bump it up another notch.
6. Trumpet Voluntary, J. Clarke
This wedding song is also commonly know as The Prince of Denmark March. You will also find the Trumpet Voluntary incorrectly listed as being composed by Purcell. It is often confused with Trumpet Tune which is another wedding song. The Trumpet Voluntary is most commonly performed on the trumpet but sounds elegant performed by violin, string quartet and other string wedding ensembles. For a more grand entrance, add a trumpet to your string trio, string quartet or string orchestra.
7. Air on the G String by Bach
Often called Air from Suite in D, This subdued beautiful song will make your heart melt. Most often used for prelude, unity candle, sand ceremony, mother’s seating, it can be breathtaking for a bridal entrance.
8. The Hornpipe from the Water Music by Handel
This Upbeat Royal sounding music is used most often for the wedding recessional (the bridal party exit back down the aisle after the ceremony). This song couldn’t be more celebratory sounding. It is also occasionally used for the bridal party or bride processional. To make a jaw dropping celebratory song, add trumpet, organ, brass quartet or quintet.
9. Ave Maria by Schubert
This song is beautiful and reflective with a subdued quality. Used commonly for prelude, unity candle, sand ceremony and mother’s seating it is also used often for bridal party processional music and bridal entrance music. This song is perfect for church weddings and is a standard for Catholic weddings. There are many composers that have written songs named Ave Maria so make sure to specify to your wedding musicians. The Schubert Ave Maria is most often confused with the lesser known but also beautiful Ave Maria by Bach.
10. A Little Night Music by Mozart
This piece is most commonly referred to with its German name Serenade from Eine Kleine Nachtmusik. This song will be very familiar to your guests. It can be used for all parts of the ceremony.
Two more popular string wedding music songs to consider
Trumpet Tune by Purcell and Rondeau by Mouret These two songs are best known for being performed on brass instruments but are very commonly played by solo violin, string quartet and other wedding string music ensembles. They are used for all parts of the ceremony except unity candle and sand ceremony. For extra grandeur and trumpet, organ, brass quartet or quintet.
Now it’s time to decide which wedding string ensemble is the best for your wedding. You may choose from everything from solo violin to string orchestra.

Hiring musicians to play a romantic serenade will set the tone for the evening or be the big finish with musical romantic surprise.
Personalize romantic surprise serenades for the maximum effect
Coordinating the music to be a wonderful romantic surprise creates a huge impact for romantic serenades. Music Remembrance has created the most impactful surprises for years in Orlando for singing telegrams, music telegrams and romantic serenades by collecting details from our clients. We personalize the surprise in every way. Personalizing the music, personalizing the attire/costume, personalizing the surprise. Here are some examples that will give you some ideas for yours:
Romantic Birthday Serenade
For one birthday, we coordinated with the restaurant and had our guitarist/singer pretend he was strolling and performing for the restaurant. He came out to the private patio with the birthday girl and pretended he was performing there next. He said “How would you like a little Michael Buble?” This was her favorite singer. He stated to sing “It’s a Beautiful Day” (her favorite song). She was smiling and singing along. We rewrote the lyrics for the last sections of the song. We changed the words to “It’s your birthday.” and the rest of the verse described how this was a surprise gift from her daughter. The mother started to cry and the daughter who couldn’t be with her on her birthday had a video of the whole thing in a few minutes.
Romantic Surprise Proposal
For a romantic surprise proposal, a singer and guitarist came out at the soon-to-be fiance’s favorite restaurant performing a song that described their love, just as she got down on one knee. We coordinated with the restaurant who sat down champagne glasses seconds before we walked out.
Sending Romance Across The Miles
For a birthday we chose and opera singer for an opera fan. His fiance was in another country and couldn’t be there for his birthday. First, she called him first thing in the morning to say Happy Birthday” just as we showed up and knocked on his door. Second, when he opened the door the vocalist sang “Happy Birthday” operatic style. The singer included his fiance’s name in the song so that he knew it was from her. Lastly, to heighten the impact, we had a cake with his name on it and personalized balloons in the singer’s hand. In addition, She got to see the whole thing because we filmed it for her.
Consider personalizing the romantic surprise with these ideas:
- What is your recipient’s favorite instrument? If they have one, then request that!
- What is their favorite kind of music? Whether it’s country or classical choose instruments that play that kind of music and musicians that play it. Remember that with romantic music serenades in Orlando, the sky’s the limit. In Orlando, you may hire musicians on all instruments of any style. Orlando has everything from an opera singers, guitarists, violinists to dixieland and marching bands.
- Do they have a favorite song? Then have that performed as a personal romantic surprise.
- Do the two of you have a “our song”. Of course, request that it be performed.
- If using a singer, would your recipient prefer that you chose a female or male singer to serenade them?
- If they have a favorite singer you can often get an impersonator e.g. Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra
- If you are using a special kind of music have the musicians dress the part. The sky’s the limit here. For example,
Over the rainbow on ukulele, have them wear a Hawaiian outfit
German music, lederhosen and dirndl dresses
Birthday music, birthday hats and balloons
Punk Rock song, punk rock outfit
1980’s song, 1980’s outfit
