Let's talk about songs!

YEs I loved our songs! Honestly, the recessional is the one I remember best.

Bridal procession - Gabriel's oboe

Recessional - polyphonic spree "light and day" (had it start playing softly in background as officiant finalized everything and then it really kicked off right as we kissed)

First dance - moon river, Audrey Hepburn's version

Father/mother/daughter/son -What a wonderful world, Louis Armstrong

Cake cutting song - I wanna grow old with you, Adam Sadler

We didn't end up Doing the anniversary dance but were going to use unchained melody. It's a favorite of many of the older couples, and it's so beautiful!

Sorry for the grammar, I'm in my phone

I would like a really romantic classical song played when I walk down the aisle.

FH is choosing most the music for the ceremony and reception. So far:

Bridal Party: Amazing Grace by the 3 tenores

Bride: Someone to Watch Over Me by Beegie Adair (this could change)

Entrance: We Party Hardy by LTD

1st dance: All My Tomorrows by Frank Sinatra

Cake cutting: A Very Special Love by Sounds of Blackness

FH hasn't made any other decisions yet.

Edited to make correct format.

I was thinking of those two songs and then changing into music of the decades.

that is a really pretty version of the song i played for the processional. I love You and I by Avant and KeKe Wyatt. We didn't have a cake cutting and garter toss so we didn't need music. I walked down the aisle to John Legend-So high and our first dance was to A couple of Forevers by Chrissete Michele

Parents processional- Mama's Song by Carrie Underwood

Processional- The Light by Sara Bareilles

Recessional- Storybook Love by Willy Deville (from Princess Bride, FH'S fave movie- it's a surprise!)

Not doing a cake cutting/garter toss/boquet toss

Processional - wedding party - u2 beautiful day (I think, I know it was u2)

dad and I - truly madly deeply - savage garden

what really happened, our dj f'd up and my husband and his mom walked down to u2 and the rest of us to TMD. Our guests had no idea I was coming (because there was no song change)

while signing- our guitar player was to play bobcagen tragically hip, he played it but sang too, forgetting the words. It was funny. He handled it well

Recession song: thank you for loving me, bon jovi

Grand entrance- wedding party- Pink get this party started

-us- great big sea - its the end of the world as I know it, and I feel fine (have no idea what its actually called)

our first dance - Justin Timberlake, not a bad thing

Father daughter dance- something by the judds.

garter song (we did 2, one for kids- throwing toys, second for all adults)- mission impossible song

while the mission impossible song that's when husband was throwing out toys for the kids, than I have no idea what she played for us to throw 2 garters.

I love some of your songs, ladies!!

We did Ode to Joy and Canon in D for the grandmother, mother, and bridesmaids. I don't know which was which.

2001: A Space Odyssey for my processional.

If I didn't have you by Thompson Square for our recessional.

Lovin' you is fun for our first dance

You're gonna miss this (parents dance)

Nothing for cake cutting, I didn't wear a garter

Single ladies for bouquet toss.

Forever and ever amen (last dance)

Did you ladies have a song for you leaving the reception or it ending?

Maybe I poorly worded that...

I don't have them all picked out yet but so far:

Walking down the aisle to piano version of 'At Last'- Etta James
