Down the aisle?

orangehills

What were your ceremony songs? What did the bridesmaids and you walk down the aisle to, and back up to? Did you have any other songs in there, for a unity candle, sand ceremony, etc?

We're having an accoustic guitarist play. I'm planning to use Canon in D for the bridesmaids. And Once Upon a Dream from Sleeping Beauty for me. We're not too sure what we will use for walking back up the aisle.. maybe a Beatles song, maybe Journey's Don't Stop Believing (the FI wants that.) For the unity candle I think we might use Edelweiss.

Haha that's awesome, I loved that show. They had SUCH pretty music. The very last scene in the last episode, that music was awesome, it made me cry- I think they used that music throughout the whole show though.
(In fact I just went to Youtube and am listening to it now...)

Before the wedding we had bunch of songs by our favorite Christian artists being played in the background.

Our prelude and what the mothers came in to was "Love is Not A Fight" by Warren Barfield.

My BMs and I walked in to two pieces that DH had composed for piano.

We had "When You Say You Love Me" by Josh Groban sung during communion.

Our recessional was "I'm Taking You with Me" by Relient K.
