    Entrance of bride- Jose Gonzalez Heartbeats

    Exit music- Madness It Must be Love

    Signing register etc- ELO Mr Blue Sky, Here comes the Sun, REM Shiny Happy People

    All played on an acoustic guitar

    Our first dance is the Beach Boys- God Only Knows

    We have made a playlist for wedding breakfast consisting of The Carpenters, The Beatles, The Police, Bob Marley and David Grey. We are quite keen to make sure it's our music and think the DJ may be horrified when he gets our request list saying no Abba or oops upside your head please!!!!

    Entrance: Bridal March

    Exit: (Your Love Is Lifting Me) Higher & Higher by Jackie Wilson.

    Struggling with 1st dance as we have a few songs that are important to us. We will probably go for two and one will either be Beneath Your Beautiful by Emeli Sande as that was what we were slow dancing to when he proposed or Thank You by Led Zeppelin as we both love it and the lyrics are really meaningful to both of us.

    Love your choice of exit song, I wanted this but H2B wasn't so keen. Will be great to walk out to, will you do a bit of cheesy dancing to it?

    I have got my niece and 2 nephews playing their guitars during all of the ceremony, they've made up their own stuff and it is awesome. Love it.

    First dance is "To The End" by Blur. Very fitting for us, it's taken us seventeen years to "make it to the end".

    The only ones that we are 100% on at the moment are 'Kiss me' by Sixpence none the richer for our first dance, and Truly, Madly, Deeply by Savage Garden for some point during the ceremony but we've not decided where yet.

    Others that we're considering are It must be love by Madness, Baby baby by Amy Grant and Just the way you are by Bruno Mars but considering OH's music collection we'll probably have plenty more to think about over the next year!

    This is something I've given a HECK of a lot of thought to; and I'm no nearer to a conclusion!

    At the moment, the plan is:

    My entrance- 'Head over Heels' by Tears for Fears (but only cos it's from Donnie Darko and I love that sequence where it pans down the corridor of the school to that song) OR 'The Lady is a Tramp'

    Signing the register- 'Carry on My Wayward Son' by Kansas / "She said Yes" by the Wedding Band (Mumford & Sons- but we prob won't be allowed this as it has the word 'God' in it...?)

    Exit song- .....NO idea...

    First dance- We're not having one! (phew...dodged that bullet)

    I've found this THE hardest part of the planning; my fiance and I are both really into music, but we don't have 'a' song...there are all different songs we like and it depends which mood we're in, etc. etc. plus we want to be a *little* bit unique...IT'S SO HARD! ?

    The first dance song is going to kill me off! We keep changing our minds, all the songs that are 'ours' are totally wrong lyrically. I am a huge Biffy Clyro fan and would have loved 'many of horror' but I just can't with the opening lines.

    For the ceremony

    Bridal Party - Kc & Jo Jo All my life piano version

    Signing the registar - MAW to be in love and Randy Newman We belong together (from toy story 3)

    Exit - Ain't no stopping us now (H2B is a big boxing fan and its David Hayes entry song or something)

    As for the 1st dance we just can't agree. I can't believe it has taken me almost 11 years to realise we don't have a song Smiley sad

    We've only really picked the first dance song - Johnnycake Mathis 'Wonderful, wonderful'. I don't think anyone at the wedding will know it...but we don't care!
