Catholic Wedding Music Guide
Catholic wedding music help!
When planning a Catholic Wedding, there is almost always a question about what music is allowed in the church. As a general rule, you should select music categorize as sacred as opposed to secular. When it comes to selecting processional and recessional songs, you can select from the classical selections listed below. Often times, the church classifies a classical song as sacred if it was originally commissioned by the Catholic Church. Some churches make small exceptions to the sacred music rule for prelude songs. Allowances may be made for songs that have a religious theme/message even though they are technically not hymns.
