    Are you having a vocalist? The song can always be sung, too. There are some lousy psalm settings, but some of the liturgcal music companies (GIA) have some pretty ones, too. 128 is nice for wedding ("Blessed are those who walk in the ways of the lord...may your wife be be like a fruitful vine, may you live to see your childrens' childen, etc."). One musical version of this psalm is "Blest are Those" (by Marty Haugen, I think). 100 ("Shout for joy to the Lord, all the Earth/God's love endures forever") 127 ("Unless the Lord builds the house, those who labor in its building labor in vain") I like 128 the best because it speaks to both living a God-centered life and the generosity of God to a married couple who believes. Hope this helps!
