Wedding Forum - What music are you walking down the aisle...

h2b suggested bruno mars, i think i wanna marry u to walk down aisle too lol!! i think we will have something classical tho, we r havin a string quartet and h2h is a classical musician so will leave it to him i think! quartet will be playin take that and other modern artists during drinks and canapes tho. x

I was going to walk down to "All You Need is Love" but then I heard "One Hand, One Heart" from West Side Story again and knew it was right. I remember as a kid watching Leonard Bernstein conducting Kiri Te Kanewa and Jose Carreras in a TV special with my mum. I know she'll bawl like a baby when she hears it, especially if I manage to keep it a secret.

LOVE that film and love all the songs in it hehehehe

It's an amazing film...I love David Bowie in it..used yo think he was the man I would marry! Lol.x

I have no idea yet!! :(

I will be walking down to Cannon In D x

Im walking down to Pachelbels Canon in D, I well up every time I listen to it and can picture everything happening :)

Kimi Ga Iru Kara by Sayuri Sugawara :D everytime the chorus kicks in my eyes well up it's such a beautiful song

We're having Fleetwood Mac's version of Songbird for me to walk in to and my younger daughter (she's 10) is going to play violin while we sign the register just not sure what she's going to play yet

Not sure if we bother with a lot of music for guests to sit down but if then I'd love to have "All you need is love" by the Beatles - it puts a smile on everyones face. But haven't decided this yet.

Decisions made:
I'll walk down the aisle to Jets "Are you gonna be my girl" and we'll exit to "Have love, will travel" by the Black Keyes.

Have not decided yet on tune during signing - the obvious choice for us would be along the Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix lines but I think I'd like something really squeaky happy bouncy :-)

we are walking down to bon jovi... thank you for loving me.. i have had that engraved on the pocket watch i have bought him for a wedding present.

Walking down the isle to - your song - ellie goulding but sang/ played by a tri orchester =D i thought Fat bottomed girls by queen for our signing and my mum was horrified Lmfao so thats a no Lol. Gotta decide the rest of the music.

As guests sit down - The Corrs Runaway
As I enter - Savage Garden Truly, madly, deeply
As we sign the register - Take that Rule the world
Did want Jason Mraz Im yours to leave with but Steves not keen so bit stuck at the moment.

I'm having Eva Cassidy songbird..... love it :)

shania twain from this moment x

EDITED: Scrap all previous ideas - I've found it! :)

Our song is Mr Brightside (not the lyrics lol, more that it always seems to have been playing at different points in our relationship).
I'd love to have a string quartet or cello & piano play it but we're going abroad. Been trawling the internet for good instrumental cover versions but had given up hope and moved onto finding an alternative song.... until I found this cover! :D

It's beautiful! By a guy called Scott Pettipas, played on a couple of acoustic guitars with touches of violin here and there :) I love it so much, I just had to leave the room cos my eyes welled up and I want to keep it a surprise from h2b lol. Xx

I can't listen to it from the phone - but I like the look of the site and the guy!

I think we have possibly changed our minds. Not sure yet. We had our hearts totally set on Jet - Are you gonna be my girl. It means so much to us and was I think the first thing we agreed on straight away. H2b wants his sister to sing it while playing on the guitar. I don't like this idea so much because I think the song looses it's bouncy magic without the big drumming intro. But I am not opposed to her singing something when I walk down - so I suggested another possibility to him expecting him to veto it anyway. But he likes the idea! So we might change it. It sounds more romantic but it's much less meaningful to us as a couple - Angus and Julia Stone did an accoustic version of Grease "You're the one tgat I want" - I love this version and sil sings similar to Julia Stone. Now I am all torn because I love both ideas!!

Listening to it now sounds really good I love the song too one of my favourites

I'm thinking about walking down to flightless bird from twilight films but not sure I like the words just the music lol

I love Jet LMB, that song always makes me smile :)
SIL could always sing a more romantic song as your first dance? Or have Jet as your first dance? Would certainly be fun!

Sian have a look for an acoustic version? I'm sure there's one out there :) Or ask a musically talented friend to play it? :) Xx

i love Ed Sheeran album + but theres no songs suitable, we was thinking about having a acustic version of 'here comes the sun' becouse if i pick a song to emotional i know i will cry....im trying to train myself not to by watching dont tell the bride....if i dont cry when they get married i know im ready, but im yet to succeed ; S

thats what rachel said but my face goes red and i pull a very ugly expression lol and my voice goes squeaky ; D

I'm walking down the aisle to the theme tune from true romance,

And I always end up crying at don't tell the bride, and any thing wedding related at the moment! going to be a massive blob of tears at my big day, definitely water proof makeup x

I think I'm going to cry or get giggles, not sure which yet haha. I'm walking down to Jason Mraz - I'm Yours. H2B has edited it for me cos I wanted to walk down to a certain bit. I was getting goosebumps listening to it and imagining walking down the other night.
Having James Morrison - You Make It Real for the first dance. I LOVE Ed Sheeran but again like Jocelinetex said, theres not really a suitable one

Canon in major D for me to, not sure what we're coming out to though... C x

How long are everyone's tracks? (& how many people are walking down before you, if any?)
Just wondering cos we're going abroad so I doubt I'll have anyone walk down before me - would be a bit silly having as many people walking down the aisle as watching lol. So I'm not sure how long the music will need to be.. I've edited my track so it's 1 min 50 sec - is that too long or short? Xx
