Wedding Ceremony & Reception Music Discussions

Should I walk down the aisle to this song?

I really want something that sounds nice and want to walk down the aisle to Beethovens Moonlight sonota. Is it to much? I just find it very ...idk , I am at a loss for words, I just really like the song.

If I really could have a song I would like to hear Three wishes by The Pierces in an instrumental version, I adore that sound of that song.

Opinions please.

    I absolutely love Moonlight sonata, but to me it sounds a little dark for wedding.  But that seems to be the music that you like with the Pierces example as well.

    Here's a piece that has a very similar sound, but has a lighter sound:

    Beethoven was not dark and moody.  This is one of his later works where he chopped off the legs of his piano to feel the vibrations of his music.

    OP- I think Moonlight would be a great song for you to use!

    I would agree, it's a beautiful piece, but seems very solemn.  BUT if it means something else to you and your FI, and you love it then go for it!  I'm probably choosing Bach's Cello Suite no.1 (Prelude) just because FI plays the cello and it's meaningful to us!
