Formal Song Custom Edits.... 

Looking for a shorter version of the first dance or parent dance song?  We have a solution for you, custom professional edited versions of any of your formal songs.

Why should I have my formal songs custom edited?
Reason #1: It's better for the guests.

Unless you deserve a spot on "Dancing With The Stars," the special dances are not usually interesting for the guests to watch for more than a minute or two. Even professional photographers will have taken every possible picture of a special dance within the first couple minutes.

If the special dances are all back-to-back, they can last between 10 and 15 minutes.  We've  found that a good length tends to be between 2:00 and 2:30, and your custom songs will be edited to about that length. That means three back-to-back special dances are finished within 6 to 7 minutes.

Reason #2: It's better for you.

We've been told by most couples that they don't want to be the only ones on the dance floor for extended periods of time.  In fact, 90% of my clients are likely to take the option of a shortened song when offered.

Why not just just have us  fade out the song early?
While we could simply fade out in the middle, in most cases the two minute mark of a song is not the ideal place for it to end. Often times, this is right in the middle of a verse. Furthermore, anyone who is familiar with the song will know it's not supposed to end that way. It just doesn't sound right.

Using a professional music editing service, your finished edits will still have a beginning, middle, and end. Most of the time, the song has the same exact ending as the original. To shorten it, we remove things in the middle, such as a verse, a repeated chorus, or a guitar solo. Most people won't even realize that something is missing, although they will probably note how quickly the song went by!

Samples

First Dance Sample

Jason Mraz  I Won't Give Up - Original Full Length Version (4:03)
Jason Mraz  I Won't Give Up - Custom Edit Version (2:21)

Father/Daughter Sample

The bride and her dad would be dancing for four and half minutes if we played the full Celine Dion song of "Because You Loved Me." The custom edit is just over two minutes.

Ceremony Recessional Sample

Sometimes the bride & groom may need special versions for their ceremony. Here's an example where "Honey Bee" by Blake Shelton starts with the opening drum fill, then segues right into the chorus. This was used at the end of a ceremony as the recessional song.

Additional Questions

Can I choose which parts I want removed?

You may suggest which parts of the song you would like removed; however, editing choices are always at our discretion of the professional company providing this service. There goal is to make the finished product sound smooth and seamless. Unless you have a specific reason for choosing the parts that are removed, we recommend that you leave the editing decisions to our production professionals.

Can I choose the exact length for my custom edits?

You are welcome to request the song(s) be a certain length; however, we cannot guarantee an exact length. The most important thing is that the finished edit sounds great.

Are their any restrictions on the types of songs that can be edited into formal song custom edits?

Yes, the full-length songs to be edited must  be available on one of the major online digital music stores such as  iTunes or Amazon.com 

Cost

This custom editing is done by a professional music editing company. As an added value to our clients we are passing along the cost of this at our cost.

1 Song = $10.00
3 Songs (Value Pack) $29.00  (Save a buck when you order three custom edits. Hey, a buck is a buck.)

 Quality Guarantee

The company we are using takes great pride in their work, and they have edited music for some of the biggest radio stations in the US. We will send you a proof of the song before your wedding to make sure you are 100% satisfied with it., If you are unsatisfied with a custom edit that they created, they will do our best to create one you are happy with.  Again, editing decisions are always at their discretion, since the most important thing is to create a finished product that sounds professional and smooth.
