FuNkShUi Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I recently got married, and the wife chose the song "nothing else matters" to walk down the ailse to. I think she just earned herself a couple of extra "cool points". In my eyes at least. What about everyone else? Quote
louisthebass Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Ours was "Kind of Blue" by Miles Davis . Quote

One friend chose Jeff Buckley Hallelujah, which some of us found odd due to the dark lyrics. Another friend also chose that tune when getting married in Sweden. We went over to perform at the ceremony but we decided to change the dark lyrics to better suited ones, (sorry Leonard). I'm not married yet, though I reckon my better half may chose Beach Boys or Neil Young. Quote
SpaceChick Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Got married in Las Vegas so no music as no aisle Quote
LukeFRC Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 my friends (banjo, guitar, f vox) played all the trees in the field will clap their hands by sufjan stevens Quote
FuNkShUi Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 Hallelujah is a great song, but yeh i suppose on a day such as your wedding, the lyrics are quite important! I found this out when i wanted The Roots - Seed 2.0 as our first dance! Denied! I suppose that would qualify as a song not suited for a wedding!! Space chick, no music and no aisle, but doing it in vegas is cool enough. Yoou dont need any musical accompaniment! Quote
Spoombung Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Steve Reich - Music for Mallet Instruments Voices and Organ [media]http://youtu.be/rCiGDdEdrks[/media] Quote
FuNkShUi Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 Spoombung, must have been walking really slow Good track that, never heard it, or anything quite like it before either. Quote
Bolo Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 PDA by John Legend. Waited for the intro to end before we walked in together. Quote
FuNkShUi Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 Ah thats cool Bolo. Never heard of the bride walking in with the groom either. I like that! Quote
JJTee Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) Come Up and Make Me Smile - Steve Harley. This was the exit music as we walked out. Edited June 19, 2013 by JJTee Quote
Conan Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) The intro to "Heart of Lothian" by Marillion! Mrs C (mk II) was born in Edinburgh... "At church" by Novak during the ceremony - which is ironic as we weren't married "at church" but in my in-laws garden in Fife overlooking the Firth of Forth and Bass Rock The bit from 1.55 on here...

Valhalalf Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 We got married in my mums garden in the Cotswolds. Typically british weather but we got a small window of beautiful sun during the ceremony and for the photos, then it rained. My wife to be walked down the 'aisle' to Elbow's 'Great Expectations' Lyrically perfect for a lot of reasons http://youtu.be/O0MrMRf1CW0 Quote
FuNkShUi Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) Clarky thats a good point, i should of maybe added first dance aswell as the song you walked down the aisle to? Our first dance was Sweet Disposition. Sung by my best man. Gotta give him credit, he did a cracking job Edited June 19, 2013 by FuNkShUi Quote
flyfisher Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Can't remember and it's not particularly important to me. Still being in love and married after 30+ years is the important thing. Quote
Norm Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Walked out to "something for the weekend" by The Divine Comedy. Last couple of lines are "gagged & bound & left for dead, when he woke, she was gone with his car & all of his money!" Made us laugh at the time & yes, we are still happily married 15 years later. Although if we were to do it now it would probably be to something by The Fall. ;-) Quote
danthevan Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 We had my wifes godson playing the organ in the church. Been playing piano for 20 odd years and was regularly roped into doing churchy stuff, so certainly knows his way round the keys. We had the generic wedding stuff entering the church, but on the way out we had a mixture of Meatloafs I'd do anything for love, Let me entertain you, some abba song and back in black. The regular churh organist look horrified at what he was doing! Quote
andydye Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 a little over 8 years ago, she walked down the aisle to Today by Iona and we came out to Mini by Corduroy, a good time was had by all Quote
Truckstop Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Not married yet (a whole month to go!) and we've decided on 'One Day Like This' by Elbow for Mrs. T to walk down the aisle to and then we have 'It Must Be Love' by Madness! Can't wait, gonna be awesome! Truckstop Quote
chardbass Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Traditional for me- a piano version of the Wedding March but we signed the register to Overjoyed by Stevie and then Marcus Miller's Free. Quote
