June 2013 Weddings

Acoustic songs?

My cousin is an amazing guitar player and we are having him play during the ceremony. What would be a good song for him to play while my WP and I walk down the aisle?

  • I'm walking to "Marry Me" by Train. Virtually any song can work accoustically. It may sound a bit different, but I always love accoustic versions of songs.

  • The princess bride theme is really pretty on guitar but very popular.  Take a search around youtube, you'll find lots but why not adapt a song you both love?

    The forrest gump theme is cool too though i havent heard it on guitar, I think it could be done.

    We don't really have a favorite song that I feel would be sutiable for a wedding.  If we did our favorites we would either look like we are trying our hardest to have a redneck wedding or we would look like white trash gangsters or something, in which case (either of the examples) my grandmother would have a heartattack. There are a few "slower" songs that we like, but we don't want it to be "mushy" lol. Nothing that is going to prompt me to cry lol.

  • I'm walking in to the muppets 'rainbow connection' on either strings or a ukelele. It's a special song for FI and I, but it's not so mushy that I'm going to start crying.
