Top 50 Spanish Flamenco Guitar Songs for Weddings
It’s difficult to divorce the emotion, song, and dance of the Flamenco. Along with a Flamenco guitarist, the dancer would convey emotion, story, and tone. It’s romantic, passionate, and can even be performed in groups — not just with soloists. Flamenco dancers can be male or female as well.
“Spanish flamenco music is the result of an interchange of musical styles, culture, and folklore between the Roma people (known as gitanos in Spain) and the native Andalusians, Castilians, Moors, and Sephardic Jews in the early eighteenth century.” Masterclass

FAQs
Why hire a flamenco guitarist for your wedding?
Though we were a professional DJ company for over twenty years, there is nothing like live music. Just like a string quartet or harpist at your wedding ceremony, a Flamenco guitarist conveys the emotion from the songs in a way that is memorable.
“At a wedding or any special event, the Flamenco guitar offers incredible changes of intensity from sweet, slow and subtle playing to a more upbeat, stronger, fiery sound The guitar can be played during the wedding to create that special atmosphere. I don’t think you can compare a DJ and pre-recorded music with the magic of a live musician.” Sunshine Wedding Spain
