We was thinking of having something Classical but H2b suggested as he used to be in the caterin corp and he just said let's have Amazing Grace played by the Scottish Guard Bagpipes...
We have just got it from I tunes and dowloaded it and it lasts for 25 mins.... So that's what we are having as it send tingled down my spine!! :)

We are having amazing grace at our blessing. I love it and its special to the h2b as his nan used to sing it him.
CommentAuthorAmy
We're having- Your Song but the Moulin Rouge version by Ewan Mcgregor as it has operatic bit's in it so a bit more classy and more our style- not big Elton fans!!
:-)
CommentAuthormummybez
We're having paul weller - you do something to me for the signing.
We've gone for something a bit more upbeat for leaving the registry office Joey Ramone - What a wonderful world
CommentAuthorSijen
THANK GOD FOR THIS THREAD!!!! This is what I had totally forgotton about! Music for bridal entrance, signing reg, bride & groom exit at civil ceremonies...
What is everyone having for their entrance?
Was watching DTTB last night and they had a string quartet playing Oasis 'Whatever' which was actually really nice. We're not having a string quartet or anything like that so will have to use the ipod. Please can I have some ideas????
I'm hoping to have "All You Need is Love" for the processional and "It Must Be Love" as the recessional with my brother singing either "What a Wonderful World" or "Bridge Over Troubled Water" for the signing of the register.

I had a Westlife song called I Do....i love them and had to have them in there somewhere but I Do is a very appropriate song and i love it!!

For the entrance to the civil we are having 'for the love of a princess' from Braveheart, 'Romeo and Juliet' instrumental for the signing of the register and we are walking out to 'Hoppipolla' instrumental.
For the blessing we are walking into Ave Maria, having Jerusalem, Sing hosanna and lord of the Dance and then amazing Grace. We will walk out to the traditional bridal exit tune and have the church bells ringing.
CommentAuthorFaeth
Am thinking of coming in to "This Day" by Emma's Imagination coz I love it but then I have second thoughts in case the lyrics are all a bit too "It's my day and no-one elses" LOL, but that's about as far as I've got with decisions on music for the ceremony! I was thinking of trying to sneak some Star Wars soundtrack music in for H2B if I can find something appropriate sounding - maybe for playing while the guests come in, or for signing of the register. Then I have no clue for recessional music yet!
"Of course I'm not wedding obsessed!!"
CommentAuthorSijen
Ha Faeth Si would love Star Wars or Superman - our friend had their niece and nephew dress up as Parker and Lady Penelope from Thunderbirds and walked down to 5,4,3,2,1 **Thunderbirds theme tune** lol...Her hubby had NO idea and was made up lol!!

If you want star wars try john williams duel of the fates on you tube. You can get a free you tube to mp3 converter to download it. It sounds like a nice piece of orchestra but fans will recognise it.
CommentAuthorFaeth
LOL so I start listening to various bits of Star Wars theme music *really* quietly as H2B is sleeping, and I swear he starts stirring in his sleep..... I'll have to ask him if he had any weird dreams when he wakes up - LOL
"Of course I'm not wedding obsessed!!"
CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
Try putting in some head phones. I've left the h2b to sort all the music out as he is better at it than I am.
CommentAuthorSuzie Bear
Awww some lovely music goin on here!
Bms are walking in to pachabels canon. Dad and me are walking into the wedding march. We're opening with 'Amazing Grace.' Signing the register my friend is an opera singer so he is singing 'ave maria' Communion hymn is 'I watch the sunrise.' After that my other friend is singing 'You raise me up' Final hymn is 'Sing Hosanna' Then its the traditional Bridal exit music. A lot of music but it should work as we're having the full catholic mass. xx
is Mrs Suzie Bear!!!!
Gotta be pink!!! :0)
I think I blinked and missed our wedding!! lol
CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
Awwww Suzie that sounds amazing. I wish I knew someone who could sing like that. Can you hire them out? We have booked the church choir so hopefully it will make all the hymns sound amazing as I will be miming so as not to torture our guests.
CommentAuthorSuzie Bear
I bet he would hire himself out!! He's out of work at the minute!! I love singing but noooowhere near an opera voice!

CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
Why don't you suggest that to him? He could advertise in free index for nothing and then go to a few wedding fairs etc. I bet there would be people willing to pay good money for a voice like that.

Lol Sijen that would be hilarious.
We've got a string quartet for the ceremony so I've asked them to play some of Handel's Water Music for the guests whilst they're seated waiting on me to arrive - i might just have to late to get my money's worth! I'm walking down to Pachelbel's Canon, signing the register to Vivaldi's Spring then leaving the ceremony to Arrival of the Queen of Sheba again by Handel. Our first dance is going to be Eva Cassidy's Songbird.
There are some fantastic song choices on here, our weddings are going to be fab :)
I still need to decide on our hymns for the ceremony though and just can't think of any! Any suggestions would be appreciated. xxx
CommentAuthorPennylane
I'm walking down the ailse to a Beatles song - it's one of two I haven't decided
either In my Life or Here there and everywhere (played on strings)
We are signing the register to the strings playing ave maria (Dave's choice)
I want them also to play this song called Maria Elena by Jim Reeves as it's my gran's song and she's very important to me.
Our first Dance is Dave's choice - I think he wants either stand by me or first time ever I saw your face but he does love Bon Jovi (although I don't really), the only one I'd really consider agreeing to is a duet with Leanne Rimes called til we aint strangers anymore as I love country music x

The Country scene has some fantastic love songs Pennylane. I love Ava Maria but I can't stand Pachelbel's Canon without crying so I best not have Ava Maria or my ceremony will be a snot fest. lol. xxx
CommentAuthorSijen
ha Hails - I was on a minibus full of 10/11 eleven year olds the other week and S&M came on the radio - they knew EVERY word (even the censored ones ha) AND were doing all the slapping a$$ / riding actions! Dear me! What could I do?!?! Ha!
I was thinking of having Little old wine drinker as it was my Uncle's song but my nan's are just too sad - Eva Cassidy 'Somewhere over the rainbow' and Nat King Cole 'Smile' - My mum wouldn't be able to control herself!!

1. My entrance to adele - make u feel my love

I was in the Trafford centre the other day and there was a string quartet playing music, and h2b LOVED it, so if we can afford it, we want them to play at our ceremony and i will walk in to 'Mr Brightside' by the killers (its h2b's and his friends' song), and if we get them I'm not bothered what else they play whilst we sign register.
We want out first dance to be an acoustic version of 'My Hero' by Foo Fighters.
CommentAuthorNishaVyas88
We haven't decided everything yet, but the h2b and I decided to have "Abigail's Song" by Murray Gold and Katherine Jenkins for when I'm coming down the aisle. We were watching the Doctor Who Christmas Special (the latest one) last night and we both got teary when we listened to the lyrics of the song Abigail sings at the end of the episode. It's a really beautiful song. Plus we're both huge Doctor Who geeks so this is quite appropriate here.
As for the rest of the registry... we're both Charmed geeks too, so I'm sure I can fit a nod to that music-wise.

No offence to Trishhill but if i had to listen to bagpipes for 25 mins iIwould probably top myself. I can understand the military thing as an ex serviceman but, something classical likeAdrea bocceli, and Sarah Brightman or Hayley Wetsenra, Ave Maria etc but some Hairy blokes wearing kilts blowing up a bag of wind not for me
CommentAuthorekielty(now Trow)
My entrance is to Pachabels Cannon, then hymns during the service, then the organist is playing classical music during the signing of the register and then recessional march is trumpet voluntary,
Then for the reception, we are walking into Desree - Kisiing you, 1st dance - Hungry Eyes from Dirty Dancing, 2nd dance - Lifehouse - You and Me and the father daughter dance is Heartland - I loved her first.
xxxx
Very very happy as Mrs Erica Trow
I feel like the luckiest girl in the world! xx
CommentAuthorHelenia
I haven't got all mine sorted yet, but so far for the civil ceremony (string quartet):- Pre-ceremony, Water music, Bach cello suites, whatever they like as long as it's not Pachelbel! (sorry to those who love that piece but I cannot stand it) Walking in to La Rejouissance (music for the royal fireworks) During the signing of the register we'll have One Hand, One Heart from West Side Story, Sun and Moon from Miss Saigon and possibly one more if needed. Not sure about exit music.
For the blessing (organ music) Guests arrive to either Vivaldi's Gloria or Handel's Zadok the Priest We walk into the Prince of Denmark's theme Leaving to Mendelssohn's wedding march.
