  • Calm down. 

    I'd start by asking the violinist what is in their repitory. 
  • If your looking for something different or unique, try a classical peice from one of the twilight movies (I know so corny) but I'm playing several of them as seating music before my ceremony.  They are so pretty and classy.
  • Here Comes The Sun by the beatles.  Attended a wedding, heard it and it was lovely
  • i agree. ask the violinist what they're comfortable playing and if they have anything 'happy' sounding.  we did this with our pianist for our recessional, and he ended up choosing his own variation on 'ode to joy' which was downright outstanding.
  • Ben Folds "The Luckiest" is beautiful on the violin.  I'm using Here Comes the Sun but with acoustic guitar.  I think that it may sound off on the violin, but that's just my opinion.
  • i fell in love with the vitamin string quartet. check them out. thats what im going to do.
  • Ask your musican for suggestions & if you are not familiar with them go to youtube. Also try going to youtube & just do a search for wedding music violins and see what comes up. You might find just that right thing.
  • I agree with the PP about the Beatles song. I would recommend going on YouTube and looking up some songs. That's how we found ours!
  • Quartet version of Just the Way You Are by Bruno Mars?
