Processional song - help!

Caitlin, on August 2, 2019 at 1:38 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 4

Ok guys. I'm debating over something I never though I would question -- my processional song. I have always envisioned myself walking down the aisle to "This I Promise You" by Nsync, but an instrumental version.

That being said -- I'm having difficulty finding an instrumental version that is not a YouTuber covering it.

My fiance chose Vitamin String Quartet's cover of Kayne West's "Flashing Lights" for his walk (he wanted something that spoke to his personality just for him, which I totally support). Our coordinators suggested we pick a separate song for the party and for me, especially because we have 7 couples and three flower girls and potentially a ring bearer (if my nephew is feeling up to the task on the day). So I think I've settled on the Vitamin String Quartet's cover of Iron & Wine's "Flightless Bird, American Mouth" for the wedding party. I want to pick another song by the same quartet for my song.

I'm currently between their covers of these songs:
"Today" - Smashing Pumpkins
"Mine" - Bazzi
"Everlong" - Foo Fighters

Here's the Spotify playlist that has all the songs for reference.

So torn!

    I feel like "Today" would be a better fit with the bridal party's song.

    Hey there Caitlin!

    I adore the Vitamin String Quartet. They do such amazing covers!

    These are great options you’re narrowed your selection down to! I personally really like there covers of Everlong, but I love the original song so I’m biased!

    Do any of the three songs give you butterflies when you listen to it?

    I agree! I think that's what we're going to land on.

    I love them all! That's the trouble. But I kind of love the vibe Today gives off...feels very happy and upbeat, and also is just different enough to really let people know that the bride is coming.
