  • Hi

    I am getting married Saturday in a civil ceremony and I am having the traditional bridal march. Registrar has authorised it.

    Not sure whether it is a local thing but I have been to other civil weddings with this too. Where did you get told you couldn't use it?:confused:

    i heard that you couldnt use anything with religious words or connotations (dont personally know if HCTB has any religiousness about it though), my mate couldnt have here comes the bride i think, but i may be getting third hand information
    )

    i was told at the venues i've seen there is to be no religious readings or music but they provide bridal music.. or our own music.
  • how about ''katy perry - i kissed a gurl'' hehe.. would be kinda cool :P
    or really depends on ur taste of music.. and completely up to you.. and technically one of you or both is still the bride(groom) lol.. so whatever theyve told u is bull!

    I'm walking down the 'aisle' to the first couple of minutes of Led Zep's Stairway to Heaven - just the flutey bit before Robert starts singing.....

    Well, that's the plan!

    Knowing my luck, the staff member in charge of the iPod will probably play Nelly the Elephant!

    Im walking down the aisle to a string quartet version of 'helena' by My Chemical Romance.

    Well i hope i am, im getting married in a church, but as its not a chuch of england, it counts as a civil ceremony or something like that. The woman explaning was confusing me haha.

    :o x

    Hate to say it but its true you cannot have any music or whatever at a civil ceremony that has any religious connotations - you can't even have Robbie Williams singing Angels.

    Mrs Metallica - I see you have picked a song but I was thinking of Changes by Black Sabbath:D
