Piano or Violin Instrumental? - Bride's March

Agata, on August 8, 2011 at 12:04 AM Posted in Planning 0 4

I am absolutely in love with the song "My Love" by Sia, and am thinking of maybe using an instrumental of it to walk down the aisle.

There are a couple different instrumental versions I've found that I really like--two piano, one violin--and I'm a little stuck on which one would be the best. Between the two piano versions below, I think #1 is slightly more airy than #2... but both are beautifully done. #3 is by the Vitamin String Quarter... also very pretty, but sounds a little more "sad" to me than the piano versions. Opinions?

Also, is this song appropriate for use as a bridal march?

    I LOVE the violin version! Piano pieces are typical at weddings. Unless you are having a string quartet, most weddings don't get the uniqueness of a violin. I think the "sadness" you are referring to is just the sound of the violin in general. Of course, I would be a little biased towards the violin... I've played the violin for 20 years! Smiley smile I play piano, too, but I definitely love the violin version!! Smiley smile

    Edit: Had to fix something I thought was a little unclear in my wording! Smiley smile

    Yeah, I generally feel that violins always sound "sad," which is why I'm leaning more towards one of the two piano versions. Plus, piano is my favorite instrumental sound. Playing all three versions more and more, I think I like #1 best! But opinions still appreciated.
