OUR GENRES

Music Collection

Music has the power to shape every part of your celebration, from soft background melodies during the ceremony to high-energy beats that light up the dancefloor. BKJ works closely with you to create a musical journey that reflects your unique story, blending genres seamlessly to suit every mood and moment. Below, you’ll find the genres typically selected for each part of the event, but everything is fully customisable based on your preferences.

Ceremony & Cocktail Hour (Soft, Elegant, Romantic)

Genres:

  • Classical crossover (e.g., The Piano Guys, Vitamin String Quartet)
  • Acoustic love songs
  • Light jazz
  • Contemporary soul & soft R&B
  • Afrikaans ballads

These soothing styles offer a graceful, romantic start to your event. Guests are welcomed with music that complements the beauty and emotion of the moment. Whether your ceremony is indoors or outdoors, this selection provides a timeless and heartfelt soundtrack that supports rather than distracts from your vows and social mingling. It’s all about atmosphere—and this is where it begins.
