Re: wedding songs!

  • The only thing by Stabbing Westward
  • I'm walking down the aisle to a song my sister wrote for me and my FI...she will be playing the piano and singing it for us :)

  • I am walking down the aisle to Train - "Marry Me".  FI's cousin is going to school for music and is an amazing singer so she will sing it.  She wanted to sing it at her sister's wedding last year but couldn't because someone said it wasn't appropriate for a church (don't know why).  So I decided to have her sing it because it's beautiful in a female voice and she's super excited.

    Our first dance is Rascal Flatts - "I Won't Let Go".

  • We have a harpist for the ceremony and we still have to pick out songs from her samples online. For our first dance, we're set on "At Last" by Ms. Etta James. Other than that, we haven't decided on any others.

    We're not allowed to have secular music for our church ceremony, so we'll have something classical/Christian/tradition (maybe Handel's Air) for the processional. My sister (who has a BA in Music from Westminster Choir College) will sing "I Wouldn't Mind" by He is We at the reception.
  • As of right now: Processional: I want Elbow's "One Day Like This," "Life in Technicolor" by Coldplay, or "All I want is You" by U2. He wants "Mirrorball" by Elbow. Recessional: Solsbury Hill by Peter Gabriel Still working on first dance ideas.

  • We're not doing first dance at the reception.  For the ceremony processional we're doing "Here Comes the Sun" and for the recessional we're doing "All You Need is Love".
  • When I walk down the aisle, we're having Canon in D (we have a guitarist who will be playing it electric), and our first dance will be Thank You by Led Zeppelin :)

  • Are you asking about the wedding song or the processional? Our wedding song is I Can't Wait by Runner Runner and the processional is Canon in D.
  • Wedding Party Processional will be Canon in D
    Bride Processional will be The Bridal March (think that is what it is called)

    Our first dance is "Is this love" Bob Marley

    That is all we have picked thus far.

    Such a killer song!  I don't think I've ever made it through without crying!  I love the version with the symphony in Australia.

  • our first dance song is going to be "I do" by Paul Brandt
    My daughters are my only bridesmaids and when they announce them as my wedding party I think i want the song Trouble by Travis Tritt
  • I'm walking down the aisle to the Vitamin String Quartet's version of "I can't help falling in love with you" by Michael Buble (actually elvis presley),  I love listening to it!  For our first dance we were thinking "this years love" by david grey, but not sure about that.  I put FI in charge of the recessional and announcement song, etc...so we'll see how that goes!  Bridesmaids are probably walking to "river flows in you" by Yiruma....but thats not for sure yet either lol.
  • Processional: "I Knew I Loved You" - Savage Garden
    Ceremony Song: "Don't Change" - Musiq Soulchild

    First Dance: "Made to Love You" - Gerald Levert

    We still need to meet with the violinist for ceremony music.

    <div>That's a beautiful version of the song. I'm having the piano version because FI is a violinist and will only let me have instrumental music. And he can't find the song arranged for a quartet.</div>
