A thousand years by Christina Perri aisle song?

Mr&Mrs89, on March 7, 2016 at 10:18 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 1 20

I know its pretty early still but just thinking did anyone use Christina perri "a thousand years" for their aisle song? How did you make it work? Did everyone walk down the aisle to that song? It is a long song so I'm stuck at how to time it and if I should use different song for bridal party.

    There is a version by the piano guys that is just instrumental. We are using that.

    One of my friends sang this song for us during the reception while folks were eating. It was beautiful.

    I'm walking to this song played by the pianist from the church. Bridal party is walking down the Canyon in D. And I picked the very beginning of the song.

    I worked a wedding where the bride walked down to the Piano Guys version of that. She said she had it pictured in her head when she wanted to start walking so we of course let her do what she had dreamed of.

    The last two weddings I went two the brides walked down the aisle to this. One picked a certain start, while the other let it play for awhile before walking down the aisle.

    The BMs walked to Canon in D and I used the Piano Guys version of A Thousand Years. It's pretty played out at this point but it always gave me the feels so I didn't want to change it.

    Yeah, I'm doing the Piano Guys version. Our dj already had a modified longer version so all the BMs could walk in to the beginning of it, but the climax of the song is my entrance.

    This will be the song that I'm walking to. When my fiancée and I first started talking about marriage, I heard it on Pandora and teared up, so it was it.

    This song was the first song FH and I ever danced to....so we knew we wanted it as a part of our special day. I will have it start playing when my flower girl walks down the aisle right before me.

    Yep using The Piano Guys version here too. I am planning on using it for the whole bridal party and myself. There's a part where the music crescendos and that I is where I think I will start.

    I prefer the Piano Guys version and I was going to use it and have all of us walk in to it but decided against it because it seems like everyone uses that song. Smiley winking It's a good song though!

    I'm walking to the Piano Guys version as well. The groom and bridal party are walking in to Sleeping At Last's cover of I'm Gonna Be.

    I still can't decide if I want A Thousand Years to fade in at the crescendo part or just start at the beginning and have it fade out when I reach the altar. Decisions, decisions...
