I love your song choices-given me some ideas ?

We're having a singer in the evening but he will dj before and after sets-I think we're just going to let him play what he feels is right at the time...but we have selected preferred genres from a list provided so know we wont be getting Regae Hip, Hop and Northern Soul, but will be getting Pop, Indie, Rock and Dance (plus others!).

You've got a little time to decide-jot them down as you think of them, or we found some by playing songs we like on youtube and then following links to others on the right hand side of the page...I'd never heard 1,2,3,4 until we started looking and now love it.

We've got music as follows:

As guests gather:
Bron-Y-Aur - Led Zeppelin
Blackbird - The Beatles
All I Want is You - Barry Louis Polisar
The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy) - Simon & Garfunkel
White Sky - Vampire Weekend

Processional:
Introduction - Nick Drake

Signing of the Register:
Thank You - Led Zeppelin
Such Great Heights - Iron & Wine

Recessional:
I Got You (I Feel Good) - James Brown

Not sure if we're going to have a first dance, though if we do, it'll be to The Power of Love by Huey Lewis and The News

Yeah that's my problem.. I keep thinking of songs and forgetting them by the time i come to write them down lol. I need a pad and pen strapped to me!

Glad I have got a fair old time left though (mind you, only 230 days lol) - could be plenty of new songs that come out between now and then!

Some great songs on peoples lists!

Anyone else want to share their music choices?

more inspiration needed please lol!

Ours isn't finalised yet but so far we have:

Guest arrival:

Kiss Me - Sixpence None The Richer
Dream Catch Me - Newton Faulkner
Heartbeats - Jose Gonzalez
Your Song - Elton John
and one other I can't decide on yet

Entrance:

Pachelbel's Canon in D played live on acoustic guitar by CBM's other half

Signing Register:

I have no blinkin' idea. Forgot about this part ?

Exit:

Rock version of Pachelbel's Canon recorded by my brother's band. Heard a version on YouTube and it sounds a-mazing!

Reception - all being sorted by the DJ. H2b demands 'White Wedding' by Billy Idol though, or he's going to bed early....!

First dance:

I want "The Way You Look Tonight" by Andy Williams. H2b wants "I Was Made For Loving You" by Kiss.

Looking at previous posts I think I NEED to work some Florence and the Machine in there. Maybe I'll also have "You've Got The Love" while the guests gather.....

Me too! I think we have a full house for 'Your Song' though ?
