Whether you're planning a lavish celebration in the beautiful state of Colorado or an unforgettable destination wedding in an exotic location, our blog features inspiration from real Calluna weddings, the latest trends & tips, to make your big day absolutely unforgettable.
We're calluna
We recently wrote about the decision to hire a band or DJ… which got us thinking about the actual tunes that are played on wedding day! One of our favorite questions, clients often look to their team of planners, DJ or Band for the greatest hits to boogie down. This can range from “what should I walk down the aisle to” to “what’s a great first song to kick off dancing at the reception”?
The ladies of Calluna had fun weighing in on some of their favorite songs for a wedding day! While we may be known for our #CallunaWhitney (where you’ll find our team celebrating, singing and dancing to any and every rendition of “I Wanna Dance with Somebody”), music of all genres tug at our hearts and get this group groovin’.
These are some of our favorites we’ve seen over the years, ones we’ve witnessed that bring a tear to the eye as a bride walks down the aisle or to get the party started! We’ve even pulled together our tried and trues into a playlist for your listening pleasure! Take a look HERE.
