Wedding Video songs...need suggestions...including vendors!

Marc Broussard "nothing fancy"

The babys or Bad English "when I see you smile"

Kiss "I was made for loving you"

Parachute Band "she is love"

Boys like girls "someone like you"

I LOVE my videographer, he is amazing! He used most of the songs I just suggested and it added so much to the video. To see them in action go to www.ourweddingvideo.com and click on HD Theater to watch the videos. Mine is Lindsay's retrospective and he used The babys song for mine....SO PERFECT!

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll go look that up!

I can't get one of his videos to work at the moment. But if you can watch the one that says Courtney you should. She has the nothing fancy song, plus another one that I don't know the name of. But I think they are both beautiful choices, and a great video too.

Lots of rock'n'roll oldies come to mind as possibly suitable for the "bride getting ready" segment of your video, assuming you like any of them. Such as "Going to the Chapel" by the Dixie Cups, "Wouldn't It Be Nice (If We Were Married" by the Beach Boys, or perhaps "Wedding Song (There Is Love)" by Peter Paul & Mary or by Captain & Tennille. Another beautiful song that, IMO, fits the occasion is "In My Life" by the Beatles.

Another option for that segment is to use a song that you'll be using during the prelude music prior to your actual ceremony.

This is a cool song for a wedding day recap. I got a Feeling by the Black Eyed Peas. Here is the link www.vimeo.com/6630925 The song has differant tempos and the final part is very cool to edit to the beat.

Congrats and have fun!

I agree with Patrick. I used that for our grand entrance and in part of our full length wedding video. But I know a lot of brides on here think the song is overplayed and everyone is doing it now. But my wedding was in mid September when the song just came out so it was great for me. And that song will therefore never get old for me.

These songs come to mind:

"Going To The Chapel"

"Today I Met The Boy....."

"The Promise"

"Waiting In Vain"

"Beautiful"

"Everlasting Love"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wM9aQRflbk&feature=related

"Love Story"

Try "You're Beautiful" by James Blunt - some of the words might worry some people but I think the "other guy" is your hubby to be and the reason "he will never be with you" is because by the time anyone sees it you're married and off the market!

I put Marc Broussard 'nothing fancy' but there is another version by dave barnes that is really beautiful too

Also... Lori Mckenna "witness to your life"

Jessica, did you ever pick a song?

Yeah, sorry, it got to be so many posts after mine I didn't want to go back and try to find it Lol. I picked "Angel" by Jack Johnson. Thanks for everyone's suggestions!

Hello Jessica,

I have found great inspiration from viewing Rolling Stone Magazines Top 500 songs of all time on YouTube. So many of the songs to view would make for a fun, upbeat, and very original song list for your video. Think, "She Loves You, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah," from the Beatles. Or "Girl, You Really Got Me Now," by The Kinks, "My Girl," by The Temptations, "I Wanna Hold Your Hand," by The Beatles. If you have brown eyes, consider "Brown Eyed Girl," by Van Morrison.

Think about the kind of songs that are used on movie sound tracks: widely recognizable, everyone can sing along, and a bit quirky.

Have Fun!

Carol
