Upbeat Christian Music for my Reception

Cheryl, on March 28, 2012 at 9:44 AM Posted in Planning 0 11

Good morning,

I'm working on my music for the reception. Both my ceremony and reception are being held at my fiance's church. Most of the Christian songs I know are southern gospel, and I already have those picked out. I'm trying to find some upbeat Christian songs to put in my playlist, but I'm not familiar with who is popular today.

Can anyone recommend some Christian bands who play good, upbeat music?

Thanks!

    Have you checked out Royal Tailor? I just saw him at a recent Casting Crowns concert and he was pretty upbeat.

    We're actually having the pianist play God Gave Me You during our sand ceremony! We both love that song.

    Personally i would love to use that song but my fh sister had that as her first song with her husband so we are looking at either love never fails by brandon heath or dancing in the minefields by andrew peterson. i love christian music its so uplifting!

    Just want to add one quick note.....

    The wedding coordinator of the church told us we could play secular music at the reception as long as she approves of the lyrics. Kind of embarrassed to say that my music preference is not broad and diverse. I really only listen to country music and southern gospel.

    I've picked out a few country music songs that would be appropriate, but I also want some upbeat Christian music too.
