Your wedding songs...

Processional - The Power of Love by Gabrielle Alpin

Signing The Register - Beneath Your Beautiful by Labrinth featuring Emeli Sande

Recessional - A Kind of Magic by Queen

First Dance - Islands in the Stream by Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers

We are using the same song for walking down the aisle and our first dance which is you've got the love. We are using the piano version to walk down to and the original version for our first dance.

I forgot about one while we're signing the register!

Processional: An excerpt from Saint Saens Organ Symphony

First Dance: Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen

The rest is yet to be decided! For us though, nothing too soppy

Entrance - I do instrumental piece

Signing of the register - You're my best friend by Queen, For Once in my Life by Stevie Wonder, All You Need is Love by the Beatles, Top of the World by the Carpenters, Here Comes the Sun by the Beatles,

Exit - Higher & Higher by Jackie Wilson

First dance - Song bird by Eva Cassidy

We are just the same, nothing too soppy for us! We were also thinking of Crazy Little Thing Called Love for our first dance!

Bride's entrance: Get Down by Tamara Schlesinger

Group singing: It Must Be Love by Madness

Rings going round for good wishes: Don't Ever Change by The Kinks

End of ceremony/start of party: Crazy Little Thing Called Love by Queen

First dance, just us: Never Tear Us Apart by Paloma Faith

Second dance, all wedding party and whoever fancied it: Marry You by Bruno Mars

Not 100% decided but I think it will be: walk in - Just can't get enough by Depeche Mode, signing - Sweetest Feeling by Jackie Wilson and walk out to Lady by Modjo. First dance is going to be Lets Get Married by the Proclaimers. Second dance/party starter is Everybody in the Place by the Prodigy, whoop! ?

Another helpful hitcher (Smudge25) pointed me in a great direction when I was struggling for ceremony music

Have a look into Vitamin String Quarter and Piano Tribute Players on itunes.

they've covered thousands of songs with either strings or piano and make any song perfect for a wedding.

We are now spoilt for choice but are almost decided on walking down the aisle to Better Together (hawaian slack key kings version) Jack Johnson, singing the register to I will wait (piano tribute players version) mumford and sons and possibly walking out to either better together (piano tribute players version) or Home (vitamin string quartet version) edward sharpe & magnetic zeros.

Maybe haha.

Guarantee some of the songs on your list will have been covered by them.

We are making a 30 min playlist for 'seating of guests' until the wedding starts inlcuding stairway to heaven, freebird, champagne supernova, somebody to love, learn to fly, man in the mirror, we're gonna be friends, thunder road, ho hey... all vitamin string quartet covers.

our first dance is 'the girl' by city and colour. x

Hopefully walk down the aisle to acoustic version of ellie gouldings " I need your love"

Walking down the aisle and first dance better by tom baxter. I'd like the celtic music from braveheart for signing the register but haven't won over h2b yet. Rest to be decided

Totally struggling with out first dance song. At first we wanted Perfect Day, Lou Reed, but that's about heroin addiction lol, so maybe not quite right. Then we thought maybe Stand By Me. I really, really wanted Gravity, by Embrace, but OH doesn't like it. Then we thought maybe Muse, Feeling Good but that's hard to dance to. We might have Al Green, Let's Stay Together.

As for the ceremony, I'm walking down the aisle to Clair De Lune. Before and after the ceremony, we'll have the following instrumental music;

O Mio Babbino Caro-Puccini

Deborahs Theme- Ennio Morricone (from Once Upon A Time In America)

Time to Say Goodbye- Andrea Boccelli ( Not the one with Sarah Brightman, he does one in italian on his own)

Ave Maria

The Flower Duet – Delibes

Marriage of Figaro – Motzart

John Barry – Dances With Wolves Soundtrack

John Barry – We Have All The Time In The World

Love Actually – Glasgow Love Theme

Thomas Newman – American Beauty

How many songs do you have for a church wedding? and can any one please remind me of the termonology thanks

At the moment...

Processional... Sea of Love by Cat Power - instrumental

Signing... Kiss me by Ed Sheeran

Recessional... Accidentally in Love by Counting Crows

First Dance... And then I kissed her by The Beach Boys

This will probably change a million times over!

I think we'll end up with the classic wedding march, played by OH's dad and 2 of his uncles

Signing the register will probably be Ulrich Schnauss or someone similar

first dance: 'Monsters and Angels' by Voice of the Beehive, followed by 'Together in Electric Dreams' for all our friends to get up and join us

We have gone super traditional and are having:

Processional; Bridal March, Wagner

Signing of the Register; Whatever the organist plays!

Recessional; Wedding March, Mendelssohn.

Our first dance is going to be Rule the World by Take That - it reminds me of a NYE party where OH and I were trying to pretend we didn't fancy each other.

Processional: You and Me, Lifehouse

Recessional: A Bridge Too Far, Band of HM Royal Marines

First Dance: Without You, David Guetta

Processional - To Love Somebody - The Bee Gees.

Signing The Register - Hold Me, Kiss Me, Thrill Me - She & Him.

Got To Be There - Michael Jackson.

Recessional - Thank You - Led Zeppelin.

First Dance - Beneath Your Beautiful - Emeli Sande and Labrinth.

Moon River - Audrey Hepburn.

Processional: Trumpet Tune Purcell

Signgin the register: Whatever the organist is playing!

Recessional: Rigaudan Cambra

First dance - Jason Mraz 'Won't give up'

I had lovely ceremony music. My niece and two nephews composed an entrance piece and a signing the register piece they could play on a loop, on their acoustic guitsars. It was stunning.

First dance was a nightmare, we wanted "To The End" by blur (we have had a lot of ups and downs so was apt for us - but we made it, to the end, despite all those ups and downs). We had told the venue ages before that this is what we wanted.

On the night, the (resident) DJ said he didn't have it, so we had One Day Like This by elbow, which is very nice but was disregarded by us ages ago on account that it goes on, and on, and on, and for a first dance, that we weren't that fussed on doing anyway, it was just way too long.

Luckily by that time I was too happy / p1ssed to throw a bridezilla, so we just went with it.

I want to fit 'just say yes' by Snow Patrol in somewhere but since we're getting married in a church I'm not sure it would fit! We like Christina Perri 'a thousand years' for our first dance.

Walking down the aisle: The Guillemots - Made up love song beginning

Signing of register - Cocteau Twins -Cherry Coloured Funk

Walking out: End of Guillemots where it is more upbeat!

First dance - The Platters - Only you (we sing this to each other in the kitchen

Oh wow, i love vitamin string quartet!! We have to choose a guest entrance song, bridal song, signing register and exit. Does anyone know who comes in to the entrance song, the bridal party or all of the guests?

We're having a church wedding so I'm hoping to walk down the aisle to an instrumental version of the hymn "Lord of all Hopefulness" and our first dance will be Live Forever by Oasis, followed by Killing Moon by Echo and the Bunnymen then Electric Dreams by Phil Oakey. Ah I love these songs!

Walking into The Proclaimers - Lets Get Married

Signing to Queen - You're my best friend plus Muse - Feeling Good

Walking out to AC/DC - You shook me all night long!

Took us blummin ages to agree on them as we didn't want anything slushy!!

I am still deciding, but these posts are super helpful for inspiration.

We got our forms from the Registrar this week, and it freaked us out a little because there is a note in it saying that our choices for music and readings must have no religious undertones. So going to have to listen to music pretty carefully to make sure no undertones there! Then i remembered a friend having issues with her Registrar refusing to allow Beyonce's Halo to be played because of the "religious undertones", just to warn anyone else having a civil ceremony - maybe check with yours before you get your heart set completely.

The pianist and violinist we have booked, Simon Jordan, lets me choose what he plays but has put all of his clients' choices on his website. Lots of inspiration there but I still can't choose! haha!
