A Song for a Friend Getting Married — Both Names in the Chorus

Turn one sentence about your friend's wedding into a finished song you can play at the mehendi, the reception or the farewell.

Type one sentence about your friend's wedding — their names, a joke only the two of you get, the city they met in — and jhoom.baby turns it into a finished song with lyrics and music in a few minutes. You can play it, share it and download it. It works well as a wedding gift because it is specific to them, and nobody else has one.

What to put in your idea

The song is only as good as the details you feed it. A vague idea gives you a vague song. A specific one gives you something they will recognise as theirs.

• Both names, spelled the way they spell them. Not "the couple" — write "Ananya and Rohan". If one of them goes by a nickname, use the nickname.
• The inside joke, in plain words. The time he lost the ring box at the airport. Her theory that every good decision starts with chai. Say it simply; the song will do the rhyming.
• One or two concrete scenes. The terrace where they had their first fight and made up. The cousin's mehendi where they danced badly. The farewell at the office when he moved cities for her.
• The mood you want. A gentle acoustic folk song for the ceremony, or something faster for the sangeet. Name a style if you have one in mind.
• Who is singing it. "From the two of us" or "from the whole hostel gang" changes how the lyrics are written.

Keep it to two or three sentences. You do not need to write lyrics — the details are enough.

Ready-made ideas you can adapt

• "A warm acoustic folk song for Priya and Arjun's wedding, from their college friends. Mention the samosa stall outside the campus gate where they met, and the running joke that Arjun is always forty minutes late."
• "An upbeat pop song for Neha and Karan's sangeet. Mention the Goa trip where they got together and the fact that Neha still cannot drive a scooter."
• "A soft, slow song for Meera and Daniel's ceremony. Mention the long-distance year between Pune and Berlin, and the video call where he proposed badly."
• "A funny folk-pop song for my friend Sana's wedding. Mention that we promised at seventeen we would marry each other if we were still single at forty, and that she beat me to it by a decade."
