Vintage Music: 1940s

I was searching for some old vintage music to play during the cocktail reception and dinner. I stumbled upon vintage.weddings.com who had a great list of music ranging from the early 1900s to 1950. It was definitely a great place to get started!

Here are some of the versions of the ones I liked the most from the 1940s:
