Feel free to drop me a message - I regularly play the piano for wedding ceremonies and deal with this a lot.
I’m more than happy to chat if you need!

What my partner and I are thinking of doing is any of the maybe songs for our first dance we will put towards our songs for the ceremony ☺️ we are also thinking of having our parents first dance songs included

We had the one by Kodaline, and I do by Sara Bareilles. I had classical music played before the ceremony as the guests were arriving, some of my personal favourites, but I don't think many people paid attention to that

I had “I can’t help falling in love with you” Hayley Reinhart version - seriously made the room more emotional - it was silent in the room when that song came on! That’s probably the only part I don’t regret about my wedding xx

I looked for piano instrumental versions of songs that had significance to me and my partner. We ended up with a variety of songs from loads of genres, everything from Patience by GnR to Daydream Believer by the Monkees. And they all worked great together.

We've gone for only instrumental ... So we've got lots of strings and a kind of Celtic feel to it 😍

Have more than 3 songs for signing the register. We had 4 and they were repeated twice. We really needed 25 minutes of songs by the time the register was signed, the wedding certificates were created and the photos were taken.

So on becoming married my husband asked if he could choose the song we walked back out to. Probably the only time he wanted input so I agreed
He chose the bloody theme tune to Rocky!!!
We had our friend play the piano for us whilst guests arriving and signing so didn’t have to worry about songs with religious words in as didn’t have a church wedding. We got married in our local museum.

Walking down the aisle song for me was beautiful in white by Matt Johnson (Shane filan also did a version but is a bit faster) my husband cried when I walked down and coming back up we had stevie wonder for once in my life. Other ones we had say a little prayer, it’s all about you, a Greek song that we love, wasn’t expecting that and over and over again...️

I walked in to moon river sung by Audrey Hepburn as it’s my favourite song. Tale as old as time sung by Ariana from my favourite Disney film and You’ll never walk alone as my husband is a Liverpool fan, for the register; and we walked out to somewhere over the rainbow sung by Judy garland which was both of my nans favourite songs

We had a pianist play at our wedding. I walked down to a thousand years and we walked out to the star wars theme! We had him play music from our fave movies while we signed registrar. No idea what was played before hand

We had a string quartet playing thousand years before I came down the aisle and then they played canon in D as I walked down... I have no idea what they played when we left. Tbh I was a easy bride and said just play whatever. As they couldn’t play what I wanted. I didn’t pick anything apart from our first dance in the end. A quartet or band will know what’s good if you just want to leave it up to them.

My wedding:
Walking down aisle - paschabel canon in d
Signing register- when you say you love me by Josh groban
Walking out - theme tune to true romance

Christine Gordon

You don’t need to choose that many songs. Why would you need 3 songs while you’re signing a register?

Our 'happy ending' song was sigur ros Hoppipolla. We walked out to that.

Google or youtube love songs or i depends on your taste. My fiance is quite into rock music. He's chosen I'll Follow You by Shinedown, More Than Words by Extreme and Starlight by Slash feat. Myles Kennedy. I'm still considering my choices.

My husband and I had a string instrumental version of chasing cars. We found it on YouTube. There are loads of different songs done as instrumentals on there and they sound amazing. Might be worth a look xx

We had a string quartet version of journey don't stop believing when we left the ceremony, and classical versions of rock songs and things like the Jurassic park theme when people were coming in! I walked down the aisle to an instrumental version of turning point x

Make sure whatever is playing the songs is in working order as I got to the entrance and my music didn't work. None of it after tens of hours choosing my music.

My husband and I went a bit silly for ours... i walked down the aisle to a thousand years. There's a string quartet that cover popular songs, called the vitamin string quartet, their covers were quite nice an unique, so for signing register we had she f**king hates me by puddle of mudd and walked out to blink 182 what's my age again. Our whole day was us having fun. Our guests were listening to things like green day, good riddance (time of your life), the offspring hit that. They were beautifully arranged so the ones that knew the songs thought they were great and the ones that didn't thought they were beautiful arrangements

I walked into This I Promise You it's a Ronan Keating song but we had a version by an Irish singer Donna Taggart. And then to walk out to I picked a random country song but the words just fit it's called Gotta Have You by Risa Binder. It's quite up beat and a different to the usual!

I walked down to Romeo & Juliette - Killers cover version, also played whilst signing the register
We walked back up to Chelsea Dagger - Fratellis
On a day like this -Elbow for meeting everyone after the ceremony

I had butterfly waltz by Brian Crain and Rita chepurchenko to walk down aisle to, we had 2 for signing register (as love is my witness by west life, thousand years by Christina Perri) we had Take That greatest day to walk out too. Was best day ever x

Our organist played Christmas songs (Rudolf the red nosed reindeer etc) before we arrived (we got married Dec 2017). Walked down to wedding march and out to...Can't remember. Signing of the register was amazing grace (personal due to late grandma being called grace)
We had a load of classical versions of songs for playing during the meal and initially for before the ceremony, until the organist asked if she could do the Christmas songs which I loved! The Piano Guys do some amazing versions of very popular songs xx
