Welcome to The Next Wedding Classic!

The Next Wedding Classic is a free internet song contest for original wedding songs. TNWC showcases songs that may not always be "cutting edge" according to current music trends, but rather, may stand the "test of time" for years to come.

You are invited to submit entries with themes of love, honor, commitment and hope for the future that might be appropriate for a wedding ceremony, reception, party or dance. If your song is chosen for the semifinals you will compete with other songwriters for a First Place award of $300 as well as the opportunity to be presented to major label recording artists for inclusion on their 2011 projects.

During each of the three consecutive semi-final weeks beginning July 4, 2010, online voters will determine which songs will advance to the final. The final will then be held the week of July 25, 2010.

The Winner of The Next Wedding Classic 2010 will be announced August 1, 2010.

Coming in 2010 The Next Country Classic and The Next Holiday Classic Song Contests

"Just a note to congratulate you on setting up this type of format for your song contests. I just found out I did not make the (finals) but I really felt that the songs picked were excellent and deserve to go on. I've always felt that when a songwriter goes to the trouble of writing the song, arranging it and recording it, to have to pay someone just to listen to it was kind of over the top. WAY TO GO!"
