    Pre-Ceremony: (from the movie Marie Antoinette): "Opus 17", "Opus 23" and "Opus 36" by Dustin O'Halloran. Processional: "Claire de Lune" by Debussy Bride's Entry: Bridal chorus (I'm a little traditional LOL) Unity Candle (still debating on if we even want to have one): "Songbird" by Eva Cassidy. We might not be able to use this since we're getting married in a Catholic church and I'm not sure if they'll allow us to use secular music during our ceremony. We might have to get it approved by the church. Recessional: "Symphony No. 9 Choral 4th Movement" from "Ode to Joy" by Beethoven Bride & Groom Entrance to Reception: "All You Need is Love" by Lynden David Hall (Beatles cover, used for the movie Love Actually) First Dance: "Heaven" (MTV Unplugged Version) by Bryan Adams (FI and I love this song, but I just heard "More Than Anyone" by Gavin DeGraw and it's soooooooo beautiful!) Father/Daughter Dance: "Two of Us" by Aimee Mann and Michael Penn (another Beatles cover). I don't know if I'll even be able to do a father/daughter dance at the reception, since my dad doesn't even know I'm getting married and I don't have an address to send his invite to. Mother/Son Dance: "Moonlight Serenade" by Glenn Miller (just for now, I'll have to talk with FI about this one, since he knows his mom better than I do). Various jazz music or his family's mariachi band for dinner, haven't decided yet. Cake Cutting: trying to decide between "Chapel of Love" by the Dixie Cups and "Grow Old with You" by Adam Sandler (from the Wedding Singer). Bouquet Toss (if I do one): "Single Ladies" by Beyonce Garter Toss (if he wants to do one): undecided Last Dance: still trying to decide between "Save the Last Dance For Me" by Michael Buble, "At Last" by Etta James or "More Than Anyone" by Gavin DeGraw. We might want something slow, so we can capture those tender moments between us before we leave the reception.

    OH - I figured out the perfect one for the father/daughter dance - Country Boy Can Survive by Hank Williams Jr.It's not really a sappy song about how much he loves me, but it fits both of our personalities much better.  He's a farmer and I'm a farmer's daughter.  ;)  I'm actually thinking I'm going to surprise him with it.
