Wedding Ceremony & Reception Music Discussions
Music Ideas...Please!
I'm getting married in about two months and am stumped on music for most of the important moments. I want something fun and preferrably country, but it doesn't have to be.
I still haven't figured out anything for the following and could really use some help.
Groom's processional
Bridesmaids processional
Brides walk
Recessional
Bride and Groom Entrance
Cake Cutting
And any other must haves for the reception

Re: Music Ideas...Please!
Few ideas that come to mind:
Groom's processional
My Wish- Rascal Flatts
Wanted- Hunter Hays
Making Memories of Us: Keith Urban
God Blessed the Broken Road- Rascal Flatts
Could Not Ask For More- Edwin McCain (or sarah evans)
Bridesmaids processional
typically, the groom, family and bridesmaids can all use one song, but ay of the above would work but some other "girl" songs:
I will be there for you- Jessica Andrews
From This Moment- Shania Twain
Brides walk
It's not country, but I am using "Marry Me" from Train.
A lot of the ones mentioned above would be great for a bride too (bless this broken road, from this moment, wanted)
Recessional
Today was Fairytale- Taylor Swift
Ever After- Carrie Underwood
My Hallelujah Song- Julianne Hough
Bride and Groom Entrance
My Kind of Party- Jason Aldean
Stuck Like Glue-Sugarland
Here for the party-Gretchen Wilson
This is Our Time-Kenny Chesney
Cake Cutting
can't think of a good country song, but some options are:
pour some sugar on me- Def Leopard
How Sweet It Is
Sugar Pie Honey Bunch
Love & Marriage- (married with children theme)
Grow Old With You (adam sandler)
And any other must haves for the reception
First Dance: My Everything (keith urban) Its Your Love (Tim McGraw) or any of the processional songs mentioned above.
Wedding Party entrance: Ladies love country boys (trace adkins)
Bouquet Toss: This one's for the girls (martina mcbride) or country girls (jason aldean)
Father/Daughter: My Little Girl (Tim McGraw) Then They Do (Trace Adkins) I loved her first (heartland)
My Wedding is June 1st! Our weddings are almost here!! For the grandmothers and moms we're using Mama's Song by Carrie Underwood, for the Bridesmaids and myself we are using A Thousand Years by Christina Perri. So far I haven't figured out unity candle. I've thought about Today as a Fairytail by Taylor Swift for the recessional. For the reception we are talking about Lost in This Moment With You by Big and Rich or My Kind of Crazy by Brantley Gilbert, mother/son possibly Do I make you proud by Taylor Hicks, Father/Daught we are using Dance Baby Dance by Chris Cagle. Good Luck with everything, Hope you have an amazing wedding day!
Groom's processional – we’re not doing this, but maybe Lost in This Moment (Big and Rich), Love Your Love the Most (Eric Church), or I Just Call You Mine (Martina McBride)<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Brides walk – we’re using Brad Paisley’s Kim – beautiful instrumental and my name is Kim, so FI picked this one
Recessional – we’re using Tim McGraw’s My Best Friend

Google has a lot of nice articles with endless lists of wedding songs. You might search for "country processional," "cake cutting songs," etc. I have found a lot of great music that way.
PPs have some really good suggestions!
