Who is the Wedding MusicLetter for?
Wedding Pros: Many wedding pros are asked by couples about the music that should be played during their ceremony and reception - such as officiants, venue managers, DJs, planners, etc.
Engaged Couples: Get ceremony and reception song ideas to create a playlist that not only represents you but will also excite your guests.
Inside the Wedding MusicLetter, I don’t just give you playlists - I offer tips for making unforgettable wedding experiences, and wedding/music industry insights.
Who Am I?
The Wedding MusicLetter is written by Matthew Campbell.
Matthew has created the following:
My Wedding Songs - A website of wedding song suggestions and one-on-one masterminds originating in 2003.
Wedding DJ Songs Planner - A book for wedding pros of 64 playlists by wedding moments, eras, and genres broken down by theme, mood, relationship, and more.

Running my media company is my full-time job. (Website, Podcast, Newsletter, Books, Printables, etc.) I put a lot of work into it - doing what I love. I believe in an ethos of paying people for their work. If you love this newsletter, get value out of it, and believe in paying people for their work, consider a paid membership.
We value your newsletter very much! You do an amazing job staying on top of new music. I never have enough time to sit down and catch up on new releases so your website/newsletter really helps streamline the process.
