Please help me decide on songs

Okay I posted the other day about processional song ideas-I think I may have found what I'm looking for in a song, but have a few questions and could use a little help choosing.  First-is it ok if the processional is not an instrumental version of a song? Now on to the good stuff-I am not asking my fi's opinion on what song for me to walk into b/c I want it to be a surprise so this is what I'm thinkingBP Processional either-Beautiful Day by U2, Lucky by Colbie Caillat & Jason Mraz or Moments by Emerson DriveBride entrance-Keith Urban-I want to be your everything, Kenny Chesney me and you, Gary Valenciano-How Did You Know...I am also LOVING Sister Hazels-This Kind of Love, but think this may end up being our first dance song.For the recessional you just play the same song for everyone, right?  I am thinking of doing Pete Townsend-Let My Love Open the Door(my fi's father may sing it)...thanks for any/all suggestions and help!!!

Re: Please help me decide on songs

  • Yes, it's okay for the processional to not be instrumental. You can do whatever you want!I don't think Moments (Emerson Drive) is an appropriate wedding ceremony song. It's about a homeless guy talking another guy out of committing suicide.. I like the Keith Urban song.
  • These are my favorites form your choices:BP Processional-Lucky- Colbie Caillat & Jason Mraz-I don't like the other choices for this-don't sounds rightBride Entrance-Kenny Chesney- me and youI hope this helps :)
  • I am using "This Kind of Love" by Sister Hazel for my entrance! I found it & I LOVE it! I'm only going to use a section of it though, since it won't take me that long to walk down the aisle. For my bridesmaids, I'm going to use the piano version of "Storybook Love" from the Princess Bride...."Lucky" is also an amazing song! My best friend had the wedding party & her walk down to the same song, and it was "A Moment Like This". It worked out perfectly & it was beautiful!!We are having "Me and You" sung at our wedding! :) Sounds like you & me have the same taste in songs!!I agree that "Moments" wouldn't really be appropriate since it's about suicide...I haven't thought about the recessional yet, but I will definitely just use one song! HTH!
  • Okay...so I just listened to Your Everything because I hadn't heard it before! I LOVE that too!
  • gch - We're using the Sister Hazel song, too!
  • Thanks for your help. I have decided that the bridal party is going to walk into I'm Yours by Jason Mraz.  I am 98% sure that I am going to walk in to Keith Urban.  This Kind of Love and How Did You Know are both incredible songs and I want to hear the whole thing so we have decided that our first dance will be to Sister Hazel and we are going to have our Bp dance w/their significant others(most of them are married)to the Gary V song.  Thanks again!!!
