Not your average wedding party announcement songs

melanie, on February 2, 2017 at 8:14 AM Posted in Planning 0 34

We are currently picking all of our wedding songs, who knew you had to pick so many? UGH!! Anyways my FH wants to pick the songs that we and our bridal party get announced into the reception to. I figured why not? One less thing I need to research and look into right? So he gave me a list of what he likes and wants. I don't know why I am surprised by the list but it's basically a mix of Slayer, Rage against the machine, Pantera, Metallica and one random Eminem song. So not your average wedding entrance songs to say the least. He said he just wants to do the instrumentals and no lyrics, so thank god for that. He really wants this, it's just so his style and considering this is his wedding too I think he should have what he wants. Most people at our wedding will get it and know he obviously picked the music. I know I may be overthinking it but I am just curious from a guest perspective what would you think? Would it even matter to you? Would you be like wtf is going on here? or no?

    I think that's awesome! It won't just be the same ol' songs you hear at every wedding. Besides, it's what works for you guys and what you want. We have Metallica, AC-DC and Staind on our wedding playlist.

    I think it's awesome, it's a personal touch. I'd like it. Even if I didn't-I would forget about it like 20 seconds later, I can't remember any songs from any wedding ive been to.

    I think it's great! We are in the process of looking at songs too, we still haven't narrowed anything down yet.

    H and I were introduced to "It Must Be Love" by Madness (the same band that did "Our House" in the 80s). The rest of the party was introduced to Pharell Williams' "Happy" mainly because we couldn't think of anything better.

    I think the intro music is something that can definitely be used to show off the couple's personality.
