Music Ideas/Suggestions

BMcLeodTeam

We aren't getting married in a church, but are getting married by our Pastor. We were hoping to go with some more modern music, but still stick to something that works for our religion. Our Pastor is ok with us using more modern Christian artists in the ceremony. 

One song I have found so far that I LOVE is this one: clicky 

Anyone have suggestions of other songs with a similar feel? I will need music for each part of the ceremony (seating parents/grandparents, bridal party processional, my entry, the Cord of Three Strands ceremony, etc) 

TIA!

Check out this thread from a few days ago. I think you're going to get the same suggestions: Click. 

We're using classical music for the processional, In Christ Alone for the Unity Candle, Reign in Us will also be in the ceremony somewhere. Our first dance we're doing To Make You Feel My Love by Adele. 

Hope that helps!

The song you posted the link to (When God Made You) we had sung by my friend/BM and my pastor's husband during the braiding of our Cord of Three Strands in the ceremony! It was beautiful. Our ceremony music was:

Music as people are seated- Here With Me and God With Us (both by Mercy Me)- just piano, no lyrics

Seating of Mothers- I Can Only Imagine by Mercy Me- piano only, no lyrics

Bridesmaids entrance- Canon in D- piano

My entrance- Romantic Wedding March by Miranda Wong- piano

H and my exit- Forever by Chris Tomlin- piano only, no lyrics

Music as people left- All of Creation by Mercy Me- piano only, no lyrics

At the reception- Our first dance was to Hold You Up by Matthew West. We also considered When I Say I Do by Matthew West too, but ultimately decided to go with Hold You Up. 

Other good songs- Hold Me by Jamie Grace, Hundred More Years and Worth It by Francesca Battistelli, Unfailing Love by Jimmy Needham
