Pisces (February 21- March 20)
Of all the signs, Pisces is among the most emotional and compassionate. Add this to your intuition and great imagination and you are a natural at making strong positive connections with those around you.
These traits will stand you in good stead as you plan your wedding and are dealing with photographers, caterers, bands and DJs, and of course, family and friends.
As a water sign, your feelings run so deep, you often find it difficult to put them into words. Your wedding day is the perfect day to let the people closest to you know just how much you love and appreciate them. Here’s your chance to use music to express these deeply felt emotions.
When you’re choosing the music for your plan, follow your instincts. If you begin to feel that old familiar feeling of confusion (Pisces often do), let your sensitivity and compassion guide you. Just think of your friends and relatives. Consider what they’d like to be listening to during dinner…loud rock, or more subdued instrumentals and ballads. Remember to change the pace and the sound of the music to keep them interested and entertained. Variety is important. And then just listen to your own good sense …and your wedding will flow.
Because of your creativity and gentle nature, you’re drawn to things unique and beautiful. Here’s a fresh new song you can play as a tribute to close friends: “FRIENDS ARE QUIET ANGELS”, (The Friendship Song). This is a great tribute to friendship when played during the ceremony, or it can be a special personalized gift for each of your bridesmaids and maid of honor. And here’s a gift for you: Download our free CD, “How To Set Your Wedding To Music”, for 55 minutes of free wedding music samples and great planning tips (‘clips n’ tips’) for your style wedding.

Aquarius (January 21- February 20)
Don’t be misled by the Aquarius sign of the water bearer. As a symbol of the waters of life flowing like streams of consciousness from the mind, Aquariuses are an intellectual air sign, not a water sign. You’re bound to be deeply interested in ideas and concepts. So much so that you’re often thought to be detached from personal emotions. Of course that’s not true. You have feelings; it’s just that you’re more comfortable talking about ideas than your feelings. And then of course, it’s well known that Aquarians march to a different drummer.
Because you’re such a good communicator, you get your creative ideas across very well. This ability of yours is a handy one to have… especially now, when you’re planning your wedding music program.
Your friends and family are very important to you, so you can have a wonderful time working out a program of variety that everyone can enjoy. For example, you might find out the first dance songs your parents and other close friends played at their weddings, and then play them at different times during dance sets…it’s a great way to bring people to the dance floor and delight your close friends and relatives.
Generally, you may have the Aquarius tendency to rebel against social injustice and to fight for the right to speak your mind freely. However, this is a time of unity for you and your fiancé and your families…a time for harmony. Concentrate on romance and music and forget the cares of the world. Just let the most important day of your life flow. A wonderful song to play at your ceremony or your reception for a special unity candle dance or ceremony is “YOURS, MINE & OURS”. Perfect for an Aquarian! Listen now and picture you and your fiancé whispering the vows of your lifetime. For more wedding music ‘tips and clips’, download our free 55 minute CD, “How To Set Your Wedding To Music” with wedding music samples and invaluable planning secrets. Go to Download Free CD now.
You may be marching to a ‘different drummer’ Aquarius, but we’d like to hear the music! Your wedding song choices or any other comments are welcome.

Capricorn (December 21-January 20)
As a Capricorn, you’re used to challenges… surefooted enough to climb your personal mountains and reach the top. While ambition spurs you onward, you also enjoy the satisfaction of knowing you’re respected by others for your accomplishments.
Where music and creativity are concerned, you follow your intuition… and you carry out your ideas brilliantly. So much so, in fact, that you might appear at times to be a risk taker. Not so. You achieve success through hard work. If someone were to ask you the question, “How do you get to Carnegie Hall?”… the answer could be your motto: Practice, practice, practice!
You love to plan ahead and make sure you’ve got all your bases covered. As for risks, you have an aversion to them…big time. You are the one who will calculate what will happen with almost everything you do…few impulsive actions for you. And this is your insurance that the wedding music plan you come up with will be a fabulous one, perfectly executed.
Lots of your friends ask you for advice because you’re so sensible. This is a real plus, because it’s important to make sure, for example, that your band or DJ will be properly prepared on the big day and that other important details are covered. Go with your natural tendency not to assume anything…double check everything. You have an advantage here because asking the right questions is easy for a Capricorn.
There’s one thing that might require some effort though…a possible weakness of yours: Don’t forget to have fun and be lighthearted. You have a tendency for too much work and not enough play. Let yourself go when making your musical choices. You can still keep your eye on the ball by making sure your plan is written out like a script. For tips on creating a script and how to deal with bands and DJs like a pro, and more inside planning secrets, check out our wedding music planning section, Wedding Music 101 for in depth articles (perfect for your Capricorn thoroughness). A lovely choice for your processional would be “TRUMPET VOLUNTARY”, used by Princess Diana at her wedding. This is a perfect selection for a regal Capricorn bride. You and your wedding will be amazing! For more wedding music ‘tips and clips’ you can use to express your own individuality and ideas, you can download for free, “How To Set Your Wedding To Music”, with 55 minutes of wedding music ‘tips n’ clips’ for your style wedding.

We’d love to know your wedding music choices and anything more about your Capricorn personality you’d like to share. All your comments are appreciated.

Sagittarius (November 21- December 20)
As the incurable optimist of the zodiac, Sagittarians tend to look at the sunny side of life…the silver lining of a cloud. You love to find things out, and you’ll go to great lengths to learn all you have to know to plan your wedding flawlessly. Most important of all, you’re the one most likely to find out what you don’t know…which can save you from disappointments later on. Even when things look seemingly illogical and difficult, you’ll still find your way by relying on your wonderful intuition.
Sometimes though, you can be so honest, you might say what you think before you realize you’ve hurt someone’s feelings. Certainly, you’ll want to watch that with family and friends as decisions and details get closer and closer to your big day.

Scorpio (October 21-November 20)
As a Scorpio, yours is one of the most powerful signs in the zodiac. One of your greatest strengths is the intensity and passion of your feelings. This gives you tremendous energy. When used wisely, and with sensitivity, you have the power to move mountains. Follow these instincts, and your choices of music and how you use music at your wedding are bound to be effective…tasteful as well as emotional.
On the other hand, beware of ‘losing it’… losing your better judgment, that is. Most Scorpios have a tendency to want to cut off communication with someone who hurts or disappoints them. A key for you is to take those inner secret feelings you feel so passionately about and transform them into understanding and compassion. This time around let your magic be the shining light that leads others…and your wedding… to great heights.

Libra (September 21- October 20)
As a Libra, you’re a natural when it comes to making others feel comfortable. That’s because you respond to most situations with such grace. The ‘scales’ of Libra represent balance and you certainly have the ability to balance all the elements of a plan with your creativity. What more could you ask for when planning a major event like your wedding? A perfectly charming host or hostess and diplomat, your easy-going nature will be a powerful plus to any gathering.
But remember that you have needs too, and to neglect yourself would be depriving yourself of the fulfillment you need in order to keep on sharing as generously with others as you do. So be your gracious and charming self, but take care of yourself as well.

Virgo (August 21-September 20)
Virgo, you are the Queen of Details… and with your discriminating taste, you’re bound to plan the ‘most perfect’ wedding. Just watch out for your tendency to take this to the extreme. Your feelings can easily go to ‘perfect is not quite good enough’. Don’t go there.
It’s important for you to keep your eye on the big picture and not to sweat the small stuff so much. Your wedding will be all the ‘more perfect’ for it. And remember, it’s your wedding…not a corporate event! Speaking of ‘perfect’…picture your guests seated quietly…waiting for the processional to begin. And just before it starts, they hear the sound of this Celtic version of “THE WEDDING SONG”. What more ‘perfect’ moment than this, as they catch their collective breath in anticipation of what’s to come.

Leo (July 21-August 20)
Leos love planning their weddings. Why? Because they get to be the center of attention of course! With your directness and flair for the dramatic, you have an innate understanding of what it takes to make a great presentation.
Do remember though, that others need to be acknowledged as well. Think of this so you can avoid unconsciously hurting someone you love. You’re wonderful at following your intuition and instincts.

Moon Child / Cancer (June 21-July 20)
As you plan your wedding, there will be so many details and people to deal with…and you’re so wonderfully good at being liked it’s bound to be a great experience for you.
But as nurturing and as loving as you are, your nature as a Cancer is to protect your feelings behind your shell…a la the crab, the symbol of your zodiac sign.
If you do run into someone who’s a disappointment to you, whether a wedding professional or a friend, try not to let your feelings turn into uncomfortable resentment or sadness. Take a deep breath and either clear the air or let it go…you’ll love the feeling of freedom when you do.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Did you know that a Gemini’s wedding is almost always a success? It’s virtually impossible to equate ‘dull’ with a Gemini! You have the inborn, natural ability to see both sides of everything and everyone…the duality and the paradoxes of life. After all, yours is the sign of the twins. That’s why you’ll instinctively follow an important rule of music planning which is: “Variety is the spice of life.”
Your wedding music program will have something for everyone… quiet dinner music so that everyone can enjoy mingling with friends and family they haven’t seen for years, ‘multi-generational’ music for all age groups so everyone gets out there on the dance floor…including singles….and of course, special songs for special moments…father daughter dance, the mother son dance … and favorites of yours and your family.
Speaking of special moments, here’s a very special song for the Father Daughter dance, “YOU’RE MY HERO”. Picture the moment you’ll always remember as you listen.
