Singing a solo at my own wedding

sessionswedding

I am singing a solo at my wedding and I have been trying to think of some Christian love songs that might work.  And not only for the solo, but also to play in the background during dinner, etc.  I am about 100% sure that I want to sing "For My Love" by Bethany Dillon.  Any other suggestions?

Aw I love that song! Brownie points to you for singing at your wedding...I've sang the past 7 or 8 years for Christmas Eve at my church, but there is no way I could sing at the wedding, I would never make it through!

We are having "When God Made You" by Newsong and Natalie Grant sung at our wedding. It is a duet, but my pianist said that he can make it a solo that my friend/bridesmaid is going to sing during the ceremony.

I don't know if it makes me a diva or something, but I am incredibly comfortable on a stage in front of a bazillion people.  If anything, singing a solo will CALM my nerves, haha.

I've had that song in my head for the past two days! It's one of the songs we are considering for our reception dances. :)

I would be WAY too nervous to sing at my own wedding. FI is composing music for the processional and recessional, but he's not playing it on the day of. (I want him up front with ME! ;) ) We're having FI's honor attendant do special music during the ceremony. She'll sing Josh Groban's "When You Say You Love Me", which isn't Christian, but is one of our favorite songs.
