music to walk up the aisle to?

Who said it was inappropriate?

I have chosen Canon in D, its a really beautiful piece of music

Who has told you it's inappropriate? If you want it have it, it's your day!!

Me and OH are going to walk back up the aisle to The Fratellis - Chelsea Dagger x

My future mother-in-law!!

If it is a piece of music that speaks to you and means something to you then go ahead and do it, it is your day and she has no right telling you what you can or can't do!

I would def say have what you want it is your day not hers. My dad is dreading what i am going to choose for us to walk up to.

I think that sounds lovely...it's your day and you should stick with what is special to you.

I am walking up the aisle to 'Champions Theme' by Carl Davis... (the classical piece they play during Grand National footage) certainly not traditional but sounds great and means a lot as both me and dad are huge racing fans!

'bittersweet' is what we are thiking of using (instrumental) - clearly I say go for it!

and its not inappropriate

I plan on having 'Make You Feel My Love' by Adele

It's YOUR day not your MIL's! I'm not sharing any details with the family so no risk of getting upset ?

And for what it's worth your choice of music is great!

Use it, It's a beautiful piece of music. We're having Bach Air on a G string and an instrumental of you got the love to walk back up the aisle to.

I agree with all the others, its your day, your way!!! I love that piece of music!!!! But i can also understand the doubt you must be having. I've had similar comments about aspects of our wedding but if I let it change my mind on things it won't be our day our way!! iyswim???

I'm having the candlelight version of Cascada's "Everytime we touch"

hardly a traditional wedding song but one thats special to us!

I think an instrumental version of bittersweet symphony would sound beautiful!

I would definately say go for it, I walked up the aisle to a piano instrumental version of Guns and Roses November Rain. There were only a handful of people that recognised it and so many people commented that it was a lovely piece of music and asked what it was!!

With an instrumental version I bet you she won't even recognise it, just do it she won't even know, besides as everyone has said, it's your wedding not hers, you can walk in to banana's in pajama's if it takes your fancy!! In fact, tell her your going for that and then you can suggest bittersweet, she'll love it then!

As others have said it is your wedding. I am walking down the aisle to With Arms Wide Open by Creed (a string version) and walking out to an instrumental version of I'm forever blowing bubbles. We wanted songs that meant something to us, one of these songs makes me cry, the other makes me laugh, you can guess which is which :o)!

I say go for it, its an awesome tune and will sound amazing on strings x

Thank you for all your comments, I have spoken to the musicans this morning and confimed Bittersweet x

I've played at many weddings where I've had requests for instrumental versions of rock or indie songs - Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve , Use Somebody by Kings Of Leon, Wonderwall by Oasis. These are the songs that I can almost guarantee will get the biggest response!

Most people expect to hear Pachelbel's Canon in D or Wagner's Bridal March. I can promise you'll put a smile on the faces of a lot of your guests as soon as they hear Bittersweet! Besides, the most important thing of all is that you want it played. Nothing else should matter ? xxx

I would really like Yellow by Coldplay as its just one of the only songs that makes me tear, but we used it at my dads funeral and now worry id just be crying buckets... so dont think we'll have that now

Songbird by Eva Cassidy here!

Creed makes me cry so I am having to listen to it repeatedly! I love that a song I adore will forever linked with one of the best memories of my life.

Were having,

luther vandross and mariah carey - endlless love.

its ur day have what u want, my dad heared this and said have i got to sit to this and i said no u have a walk ne down to it.lol he wasnt impressed. xxx

My OH wants me to walk down the aisle to isnt she lovely by stevie wonder

Glad you went for bittersweet!
