Unconventional wedding music

My wonderful mother and I got into a yelling match over the music FH and I picked out. She's all up in arms over the fact I don't want to have classical/traditional music for the ceremony. For example: When the boys walk out I wanna play - Welcome Home (Sanitarium) by Metallica For when the girls...

For example:

For when the girls walk out I wanna play - Satelite Heart by Anya Marina

When Fh and I walk out as man and wife we want to play - This world cant tear us apart by Trivium and also have that as our last dance song

Our first dance is Nothing Else Matters by Metallica (the S&M) version.

Is it really that awful I want more of a metal wedding even though not all the guest will apprecaite it?

    Well, I am paying for my daughters wedding and she will be using non-traditional music too. I love the idea!

    Since you will be in a church, perhaps tell your Mom that God loves Metallica too! LOL!!!

    Doddie,

    I love your songs. What a great way to have a theme wedding!

    My daughter will be walking in to a Michael Jackson song, "I Just Can't Stop Loving You".

    Just wanted to say \m/ !

    We're tentatively planning to have our first dance to a song by Pain of Salvation - judging from your choices, you might know who they are! We've otherwise been trying to tone it down, though, so as not to freak out the relatives.
