25 Wedding Favorites Reviews

• 25 Wedding Favorite... Almost

  
  By on 2004-06-15
  As with many compilation CDs 25WF is long on music but short on musicianship. The performances are dull and lifeless with little or no attention to the subtleties necessary to perform these compositions. The recordings are reminiscent of a Jr. College Orchestra performing late in the day. The sound quality is thin and hollow which adds to the dreary atmosphere.
  An unremarkable set of recordings to be avoided at all costs.

  This is an excellent CD for a formal wedding, so-so for a casual one.
  
  

• A Good Source of Ideas But ...

  
  By A383VKKZXFVEO7 on 2004-05-10
  The best I can say about this CD is that there are many different styles represented & one can at least get a sense of which pieces merit further investigation. My overall impression is that most of the selections are given a heavy-handed treatment(one might say ultra-formal) or are downright silly--I could swear I've heard 2 of the tracks in Disney's Electrical Parade. I don't blame the composer, of course, but the arranger & compiler. I'm planning my own wedding & found a few ideas of songs I'd like to hear in *other* versions, but nothing on this CD sounded like what I wanted to hear at my wedding, let alone anyone else's. If you have limited exposure to classical music, or don't know where to begin in planning your wedding selections, this might be a good place to begin, simply because of the variety. But I wouldn't recommend it as the source of your wedding music.

  This CD has a good selection of songs on it.
  We will use one of the songs for the ceremony.
  We found a couple of other wedding CDs on amazon.com too
  One of them is "Classical Wedding Traditions"
  The sound on this CD is simply amazing.
  I will enjoy this one long after the wedding.
  Amazon.com has helped us a lot in planning our wedding music.

  My daughter had to move her wedding 3 weeks before the event and the music she had arranged could not be there. I purchased this CD and we were thrilled with the price, the selections on the cd and how quickly it arrived. Thanks for providing the music for a beautiful wedding.

• Good selection at affordable price

  It's a beatiful opportunity for selecting (or remembering) the soundtrack at your wedding ceremony. Some of the recordings are a bit pretentious and may somehow override the original score, but most are definitely appreciable. The anthology covers a broad variety of periods and genders: connoisseurs might want to be more selective.
  
  
• Preview your wedding day
  By A2UVT9UX7BI8SR on 2006-08-14
  This CD was inexpensive, and provided a great way to preview songs for my wedding. The CD had a good song selection. My fiance and I were able to get a better idea of how the songs would be at our wedding. Definitely an inexpensive tool that is worthwhile.
  
  
• Great item!

• Excellent resource for wedding planners

  I work regularly with people planning church weddings who want the service to be dignified, traditional and formal. Often they have "ear memory" of music they've heard in other weddings, but no idea about its composer or title. This CD is the best compilation I've found of music that fits those requirements. Selections include great music and performances make it easy to imagine how they would sound in a particular church or other setting. Includes works by Protestant, Catholic and secular composers.
  
  
• Best Music Ever for Home Wedding
  By AAD03MTM566DU on 2007-07-20
  The tape consists of 25 traditional wedding songs played by big orchestras; the music was beautiful and made a small ceremony into a special, unforgettable ceremony.
