Music for Ceremony at Registry Office

Ok, i found this really hard to choose, but finally have (good job too!)

Music for when people will be arriving will be vivaldi four seasons (bought a cd off ebay for 99p) this is just because its just one of the only classical stuff i recognise and like!

To walk in to we are having the bridal march by jonathan cain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIyXWm_cw2E you can download this for free from www.jonathancain.com

During the signing of the register we are having canon d by pachelbel, but we are having a specific version of canon by the london symphony orchestra. Its a lot lighter and nicer than other versions. I downloaded it from amazon for 69p you can hear it here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Af372EQLck

Then, to leave we are having (wait for it!!!).....the indiana jones theme tune!!! In the final part of the last film, he gets married and the music is playing as the walk out the church! Ive been a fan all my life, as had misterchicken, and our boys totally love indiana jones. Its for them really because they willl be so surprised and will love it!!

Our main prob is finding someone to press play and stop on the cd player - and getting it right!

We are having Gift of a Thistle for walking down the aisle

Book of Love for the signing of the register

Piped back up the aisle to Rowan Tree

Welcomed in for dinner is the piper again to Scotland the Brave

I'm walking down the aisle to Moon River - Frank Sinatra

We've picked a number of songs for the signing of the register as with photographs and everything it can take up to 10 minutes so:

1. It Had To Be You - Frank Sinatra

2. Let There Be Love - Nat King Cole

3. What a Wonderful World - Louis Armstrong

4. I've Got You Under My Skin - Frank Sinatra

Then walking back up the aisle to "For Once In My Life" - Stevie Wonder

H2B has put each "section" on a different CD, so there's not an issue with the next song accidentally being started or anything!

A few 'select' songs for when guests are arriving (i just watched Juno and love the soundtrack. especially the theme tune (also same as youngs fish advert) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20PQBtyfNZY)

Am having Cat Powers - Sea of Love to walk into

For signing register - shining light by Ash and make you feel my love by Adele (original Bob Dylan) and a billy Joel song (think its called shes got a way)

and then we're going to walk out to the darkness - i belive in a thing called love

These were picked as a few of our favs and also a couple of suggestions others have had on here

For guests arriving, we had a selection of Nina Simone and Ella Fitzgerald.

Hi There,

This may help with part of it : Wedding Ceremony Music

Did you know a lot of wedding DJs offer ceremony music.

They source and get the music you want (and many have such a vast library they can give you good suggestions). It'll be faded in and levels adjusted.....no clunking of CD players and peace of mind that you've got a professional on the case who knows what he/she is doing. Most offer discreet lapel mics so that all your guests can hear your vows. You might be surprised at how little it costs.

Here's a good site that gives lots of ideas for ceremony music...
