what are you doing about music when you walk into the room you are getting married in?? :/ Are you having a CD player playing a song? Or ......someone singing? or instruments??? I don't want to walk into silence if you know what I mean?, but got no idea what is acceptable in a civil ceremony? Has anyone had it confirmed what they can and can't do with regards to music to walk into and back out again..... lol I'm getting married at the hotel ( our venue ) Thank yoooou alll xxxx

Lol they just told us to do the CD if we wish and they will sort it all out.. so I'm leaving it with them :D I've got the faith lol
I *think* I am going to be 'piped' down the Aisle ..then we are having 'our tune' as we waddle back up it!
I believe there are 2 people that are 'officials' at a civil wedding...one writes the certificate and presses the CD on/off!

I'm having a CD playing, but I went to a civil wedding recently and they had a harpist.
Also, about the religious music thing, someone posted an interesting article on here about the fact that the rules have been relaxed... I'll see if I can find it..

Just bumped it, it's called 'For anyone having a civil ceremony'.
