Suggestions for music from films?

Caraboo, 27 June, 2012 at 14:32 Posted on Planning 0 10

Hullo,

The OH of one of my BMs is an amazing keyboard player and is going to be playing all the music before we walk down the aisle and the processional music, too.

I'm after any suggestions for appropriate music to play. We're film buffs so thought we might keep it along those lines - I'm considering the processional being Married Life from UP (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0n4cNryJpq8). We really want music that people recognise at least part of.

Other things we're thinking of are:

Romeo and Juliet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMLFrtOsNZw&feature=related

Glasgow Love Theme (from Love Actually): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ln46lnYcAwk

Fairytale (from Shrek): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqeDJUQs2jQ

I'll Make a Man Out of You (tee hee!) (from Mulan): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BiYBqo5QZw

Bella's Lullaby (from Twilight): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ete4PyhW-1I

Any other suggestions? I love the traditional things like Pachelbel's Canon and Air on a G String, but I think it would be nice to keep it a little more contemporary and "us" so movie tracks really fit in with this.

    There's a song in Cars, where they're all "cruising" on the new road, I don't know who did it originally but it's covered by The Overtones and its called Shh-boom......we're having it as our recessional music :-)

    My entrance music is Enya's Fairytale from Lord of The Rings. I love it and go all weak at the knees when I hear it (perhaps not the best entrance music then eh?).

    The theme music from Forrest Gump is a good choice for the ceremony. I've played it once and it seemed to fit the occasion perfectly

    I think I'm tending towards the theme from Shrek for the processional (after all, I am called Fiona, I shall look like a princess and I'm also a blackbelt kickboxer haha) and then Married Life from UP for the recessional.

    I've sent a list of other tunes to my friend who's playing so he can choose what he wants to play while the guests are waiting

    I couldn't think what the Shrek one was but just listened and actually really like it.

    Hallelujah was in Shrek too and it is a beautiful piece of music.
