Help! Need a Unity Candle Song ASAP!

Jessica, on June 18, 2009 at 9:39 AM Posted in Planning 0 8

My sister just called me and says she is in need of a new "Unity Candle Song"...apparently her other song was too long and she doesn't want to have to fade the song out.

Her wedding is in two days...any suggestions??

    How would she be playing the song? does she need a recording or just a piece that can be played solo?

    Does a song even have to be played? IM just asking becasue Ive seen this question alot and Im having a sand ceremony but wasnt going to even have music played for it..I felt that with the officiant speaking and us doing the sand it wasnt necessary or was distracting. Do i need to choose music?

    Ya...probably right around two minutes. I'm kind of frustrated with her for deciding at the last minute that she needs a new song and that she won't fade out the music...but what can you do! Smiley smile

    I'm hoping she will be helpful when it's my turn in a few months!

    I will look through som of my old orchestra music. Some of those songs were rather short but when you go by CD they have the full song and you will have to fade. Its hard to find anything under 3min. If she had a soloist they could modify the song so it didnt fade and it sounded right ending.

    I will look and see if I can find a copy online somewhere. She might just have to fade, enjoy the full song, or go with no song.

    Sorry, no luck on the songs. All the ones I had that were shorter were cut versions of longer songs. Her best bet would be a song she can fade in and out of but i do really like that poem. It would be a nice change.

    I'm using J S Bach - Prelude in C for my unity candle song. I have musicians for my ceremony, but here is a 2 min 16 sec version on youtube....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWEKAZT0QT8.

    Best of luck!
