I have selected my Procession song. What's yours?

We have to pick these out haha! I should probably get on that. FH aunt is marrying us and she has requested that it be appropriate music for a 'Christian wedding'. basically saying no pop songs....so apparently I need to get on finding instrumentals..whatevs. Isn't this my wedding ???Ugh...end rant :o)

I am so uncertain about the processional/bridal entrance I think I want them the same. It's between Hallelujah or Canon in D But the recessional is definitely My Lucky Day by Gaelic Storm.

Clearly FH picked the recessional...

Processional: Either 'Friday I'm In Love' cover by Dean and Brita or 'Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space' by Spiritualized

Recessional: 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole

Dang it JaKLyn - I thought I was the only one with that version of "Somewhere over the Rainbow"!!! I am actually trying to find someone who can play the ukelele live.

My processional was In the Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel. I was so pissed because my DOC had my BMs walking way too far apart, so the song had to be played twice! Oh well!

Bridal Entrance: There is a Light by Great Lake Swimmers (made DH cry!)

Recessional: The Throne Room Song from Star Wars

Processional: this acoustic version of 1,000 Years (FH really wants it) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIj07LL57RA

Bridal Entrance: Tear Drops - Massive Attack

Recessional: Home - Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes

Are the actual lyrics being sung for the procession/bridal entrance or just is just the music playing with no words?

Processional: Haven't figured out yet

Bridal Entrance: Quartet version of "Chasing Cars"

Recessional: Home-Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros

Omg Allison!!!!! I just had heard this one man on you tube sing Over The Rainbow on a ukelele!!! I listened to him because his presence did not seem at all like what I thought how he would sing it! Unfortunately I think he might have passed, but you have to listen. His singing is so, so beautiful!!!

http://youtu.be/fahr069-fzE His name is Israel Kamakawiwo'ole

I was just thinking Mrs. Valentine, of doing a soul train line! I love you song choices. This thread has been keeping on you tube!!! Thanks for all the comments. I have really enjoyed hearing about the the most fun parts of the celebration..music and dancing with our family and friends!!! This might help some of us out too! I didn't realize how many songs I might need for at different times during the reception. Robin Valentine, you showed me that!

Processional: "make up kisses" - john powell (p.s. i love you soundtrack)

bride's entrance: "concerning hobbits" (lord of the rings)

recessional: "somebody loves you" - betty who

After reading this thread, I can't stop thinking that I would love to have everyone breakout in dance right after we kiss and are announced as man and wife. It's outside around a fountain and I can picture all my family, kids, g-babies and friends just going crazy. I can see everyone dancing with their ribbon wands waving everywhere!!! Don't laugh but the songs "Bust a move" and "Everybody Dance Now" are playing...I think I've went into my memory music closet and want a crazy fun, fun wedding ceremony even before we hit the reception!

@Mrs Robin Valentine - Your list of songs I need really help! Now I know how many I need to have. I have like 2 songs so far so I need to kick it in high gear lol!

We are thinking but not 100% yet of doing

Processional. Here comes the sun. Beatles

Bride entrance. Something in the way she moves. By James Taylor

Recessional. Maybe Marry You by Bruno Mars. Is that too cheesy? I Am kinda a sucker for that song, but open to suggestions. Def want something fun and upbeat

Lara!!! Massive Attack! AWESOME!!! That totally makes me think you might have a dark and twisty side LOL>

Bridal Entrance: Someday My Prince Will Come-sung live!

Laura, I am dying laughing with your dark and twisty comment. I have always loved Massive Attack (and other trip hop artists). This song just makes sense to me!

I don't know if I could pull it off, but I say go for it!! I love trip hop and that song too!!
