Help - songs for DVD

Elbow - one day like this

jack johnson - better together

damien rice - blower's daughter

levellers - beautiful day

Stereophonics - first time ever i saw your face

proclaimers - let's get married

I agree Elbow's track is a winner for weddings - especially montage sequences.

Example from a wedding DVD here

Another vote for Elbow here, we had it played before our ceremony.

In fact ebee, we had a few of your suggestions on our ceremony cd. Good taste ?

Another few suggestions - Take That - Greatest Day,

Someone like you - Van Morrison

Take That - I'd wait for life

I didn't film your wedding did I debbydoo? ?

We have loads of songs on ours, here are a few: -

DJ Sammy - Heaven (the candlelight mix)

Jack Johnson - Better Together

Pu$$y Cat Dolls - Stick Wit You

Westlife - Tonight

Boyzone - I Love The Way Yoy Love Me

Goo Goo Dolls - Iris

Proclaimers - Lets Get Married

Savage Garden - Truly Madly Deeply (this was our first dance)

Bon Jovi - All About Lovin You

Kelly Clarkson - A Moment Like This

Bon Jovi - Thank You For Loving Me

Erm, I can't think of anymore of the top of my head - told you we had loads ?

HTH

Luv Victoria

edited because pu$$y got ***** out, well the proper spelling of it

We didn't choose the songs for our DVD. Our videographer used songs we'd played before and during the ceremony. So we have:

• The Ramones - Baby, I Love You
• Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars
• Explosions in the Sky - Your Hand In Mine
• The Beatles - In My Life
• Jose Gonzalez - Heartbeats
• Balcony Scene (from Romeo and Juliet soundtrack)

Usually for the video you would use 'clean' [CD/MP3] versions of the songs played on the day, though it's no problem to make music changes between the wedding day and the DVD if desired.

For morning preparations, outdoor segments and highlights we ask the couple to select additional music. Sometimes these are chosen from the track-list playing in the venue while guests arrive, or they could be entirely new tracks not heard at the wedding.

Heartbeats by Jose Gonzalez is a great choice.

?

We had:

Shania Twain - From this moment

Elvis Costello - She

Aerosmith - Don't wanna miss a thing

for our slushy songs

Unfortunately not!

Oooh, Iris by the Googoo Dolls, was one I wanted to have but forgot about in the lead up to the wedding. Another great song!

Jason Mraz - I'm Yours

This song didn't even feature in our wedding, but our photographer has it playing on her website. Because we now associate it with our photos it's become an unofficial soundtrack to our day, to the point that H actually thought that we had had it at our wedding!

This was the song on our photo highlights slideshow on the photographers website. Got the mickey taken for the fact that it contains the line "I don't want the world to see me" when the pics were out there on the www for all the world to see! ?

Loving this thread, already stolen a couple of songs from it but need more so thought I'd revive it. Any more suggestions anyone?

Thanks!!

I know this is an old thread but really, Blowers Daughter? It's about Damien realising a girl he'd been talking to on the phone was a schoolgirl! "And so it is, he has

The shorter story No love, no glory No hero in her sky"

Last time I got married, a lot of people had High by Lighthouse Family - a song about things being rubbish at the moment! ?

Ooooh difficult one...I uber love The Calling's 'Where ever you will go' tack! Or 'Time of your life' by Green Day

Oo I love Green Days Time of Your Life...

I know what you mean about some of the songs being a little inappropriate, I have been very conscious of the lyrics and meanings of songs - I'm still struggling with the last 2 songs though so if anyone has any more, I'm all ears!!

Thank you!!
