If I hadn't already paid a guy to custom record here comes the bride in panflute, I'd walk in to "Here I Am" by Bryan Adams.

We're sort of having music theme - of music from movies. (Here I Am is from Spirit, Stallion of the Cimmaron). the 2 options for the processional are "A Whole New World" from Allidin, or "You'll Be In My Heart" from Tarzan. (or maybe Here I Am) I really love that song, but don't know where else to play it.

You can listen to them all on my site: http://tiffany-alex.weebly.com/music.html

The BP and I both walked down to "Alla Luce Del Dio" by Mark Magnuson. You can look him up on iTunes- Acoustic Wedding.

I'm walking to Storybook Love from the Princess Bride and the BM are walking to Pachelbell's Canon

I got my music from here http://www.weddingmusicproject.com/

We're doing pretty untraditional songs.
I'm walking to Vitamin String Quartet's version of All I Want is You (U2)
My BP is walking to Colbie Calliet's I Do

Since the church we're using has a huge organ, so that's what we're going with!

We both love brouque/classical type music so we're kind of going with a Handel theme. The mothers are walking into Air from Water Music, for the party, Trumpet (not Handel :[ ) i'm walking into Arrival of the Queen of Sheba from Solomon and our recessional is Hornpipe from Water Music.

I juuuust got done meeting with the girl who is playing the piano for our wedding.

I am walking into "Memory of the Trees" by Enya and Nicky Ryan (we're skipping the first part becuase it's too dark)

Grandparents and parents are being seated to the same song that BP is walking in (since it's just my sister and his two brothers). That song is called "Threads of Love"

My grandma is doing a reading with "Grant Us Peace" by Michael Scott
(couldn't find Youtube video...)

And then we're walking out to "Can't Help Falling in Love"

We're doing a mix of traditional and non-traditional in our ceremony.

Processional - Laudate Dominum (moms/grandmas)
- Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring (WP)
Registry signing - Come What May (Moulin Rouge)
Hymn - Blest Are They
Hymn - Beautiful Savior
Recessional - Happy Together (The Turtles)

DramaGeek · July 2011

Candlelighters - The Wedding Song (There is Love), Paul Stookey

H and Minister - Doubly Good to You, Amy Grant

WP - Love from Disney's Robin Hood

Me - Candle on the Water, Pete's Dragon

The Wedding Song and Doubly Good to You were sung by my cousin and her husband with guitar accompaniment. Love and Candle on the Water were on the harp.

<div>I LOVE THIS PIECE!!! Too bad I didn't think of it for our brass quintet to play. We're doing similar types of music but I have some "non-traditional" but traditional sounding (not as commonly heard) Classical music. Verdi, Handel, Brahms, etc. YAY!! :-) </div>

thanks ladies!!! (:

naomikb-- that's interesting that "signing the registry" is part of your ceremony! they do that in Australia (DH is aussie) so we did that in our wedding to Keith Green's "Love With Me"

BM processional: Arioso (violin)

My processional: on the DVD it's Theme by Paganini cuz that's what it was SUPPOSED TO BE!! But the pianist didn't bring music (OR A KEYBOARD.. had to run and get one from the college nearby where he teaches) and instead he played something he made up (sort of a cross of the bridal march & jesu joy of man's desiring). so not awful, but i was annoyed. shrugged it off as quickly as possible so i could walk down with a smile on my face. all I had to do was look at the sexy groom

Unity candle: The Prayer (vocal solo)

Recessional: O For 1000 Tongues to Sing (jazzed up version arranged/played/sung by our pianist)

another honorable mention is the song played during the slideshow my brother made, "That's What Love Is" by David Phelps
