Another Wedding Music Tread

[Cowgirl]

I'd love some ideas on wedding music. Not so much the first dance song or the father/daughter song, but more like the prelude/processional/recessional. I'm looking for some non-traditional songs. I'm not really interested in classical music, because the wedding won't be formal. Instrumental songs are great. I'm looking for a really great song to walk back down the aisle to. If you could tell me what category your song fits into, that'd be great too.

The song I lent my sister in law and the song that, if ever I get married, I'll walk down the aisle to is "Forever Love" by Gary Barlow. It's a beautiful piano based piece.

If I EVER get married again I'm walking down the aisle to this.

Here I am sitting here trying to think of trance/progressive/dance songs that would fit for a "wedding aisle walking" song...


Hey, some of those can be "instrumental"...

My High School English Teacher and His Wife walked back up the aisle to "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen. If the hubby and I had a traditional marriage we would have had the same song played. Why not have some humor on such a sentimental and serious day?

I suggested we play "Hallelujah!" when we walk back down the aisle.

[Cowgirl]

What about mine?

I listened to part of it last night. My internet is slow so I get impatient waiting for the song to load. The piano is pretty. My BIL is going to play piano for us.

I like it because the piano is beautiful, the vocals are amazing, and I like the implication of the song... how he thought he didn't need anyone and along came this person that made him believe in forever and now he can't imagine his life without her.

This was our first dance. Martina McBride does a pretty good version of this but you can tell it's not the REAL thing.

I LOVE Norah! That's a great list! I've got somewhere over the rainbow, but I love Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's version of it. Have you heard it? His voice is awesome.
