Finally decided on our songs!!

OG FMP, on May 18, 2015 at 10:35 AM Posted in Planning 1 24

This was harder than I thought, but we finally decided,

Processional: John Legend - acoustic/guitar - Thank you Mrs.Pope!

Bridal Entrance: Sade "By Your Side"

Recessional: Ok so this song I know some of you are gonna be like "WTF are you thinking" BUT FH is sticking to his guns...."Beat it" by MJ LOL He said he wants something fun and a few of my BP are huge MJ fans so i can so picture them doing MJ's move up the aisle. FH doesn't want an "uptight" wedding. Ok then!

First Dance: Jagged Edge "Gotta be"

Share your songs.....

    The Fray, Be Still for family coming in, Where is my mind (originally the Pixies) instrumental for the BP, one thousand years instrumental for me, back down the aisle, On Top of the World by Imagine Dragons. Because we're getting married in the yard of a giant house on a golf course, we come out and around the house to get to the ceremony site. Tons of time to walk, so I can fit in more music. My DJ is going to cut the songs off if they're too long.

    Prelude:

    selections from the Up soundtrack

    Processional:

    A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes (instrumental)

    Bride’s Entrance:

    When You Wish Upon a Star instrumental)

    Recessional:

    Ever Ever After by Carrie Underwood

    Postlude:

    Life's a Happy Song from the Muppets

    There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow

    Cocktail Hour Music:

    the Disney Fairytale Weddings CD

    Entrance:

    Catch Your Dream by Mouserat (the fictional band from Parks and Recreation)

    First Dance:

    Ma Belle Evangeline from Princess and the Frog

    Father/Daughter Dance:

    Stealing Cinderella by Chuck Wicks

    Brother/Sister Dance (I have three younger brothers I'm going to dance one song with, each one will cut in at a certain point):

    I haven't decided on this one. One of them prefers Nobody Else But You from A Goofy Movie because we loved that movie when we were kids but one of the others prefers the Robert Goulet version of You've Got a Friend in Me because he wants me to teach him how to swing dance so we'll see lol

    Anniversary Dance:

    Beauty and the Beast (I'm going to be singing this as a duet with my mom's husband)

    Cake Cutting:

    Edelweiss from The Sound of Music (instrumental)

    Rolling the Credits:

    When Can I See You Again by Owl City (from the Wreck-It Ralph soundtrack) My venue has these gorgeous "picture walls" so you can play videos and slideshows and stuff so at the end of the reception as everyone is leaving we're gonna "roll the credits" with a little video we're making recognizing the bridal party, officiant, venue coordinator, etc... so it's like the end of our wedding is the end of a Disney movie
