    We got married a few weeks ago (We chose 'Sigur Ros - Hoppipolla'!)

    Now that is just an incredible piece of music by one of my favourite bands. W2B will be looking in later, hint hint!:rotfl:

    At the moment I have no idea what I am walking in to, but we have decided that we are going to have this at some point after we are married, signing the register perhaps as it's quite long and take a while to kick in, as we love it, such a beautiful tune and very 'us'.

    Sebastien Tellier - La Ritournelle

    Might have to play it later on at the reception so i can enjoy it properly.
  • I'm walking down to ellie goulding your song, so beautiful. I'm not going to tell me H2B as i will send him a little note on the morning of the wedding that the song is for him and how i feel about him. it will make him cry i know it will.:)
  • Loving asll these ideas - this is the one i am stuck on too!! the others were quite easy to pick really and both decided straight away!
    Have got this version of When You Wish Upon A Star -

    its disney, but not too cheesey to start the day off with! lol.
    Signing the register we having
    somewhere over the rainbow/wonderful world by Israel .......... can not remember how to spell his surname!! Its the version thats on the film 50 First Dates.

    Walking out to Michael Buble, Everything.

    Got a few thoughts on walking in at the moment - am a big michael jackson fan and really love this song so its a contender at the moment:

    My H2B still thinks I'm joking about this, but assuming we find a church and organist and vicar who will agree, I fully intend to walk in to the first few chords of the Wedding March, which will segue into the theme from Indiana Jones. I'm an Egyptologist, and I think it will make our guests laugh, which is the best start to the day.
    :grin:If at first you don't succeed, then sky-diving isn't for you

    I've just decided to walk down the aisle to Purcells trumpet tune, it's not the most original, but I think it's lush!
    Now just got to decide on music for the signing of the register and walking back down the aisle to!

    I know it sounds mental, but we're hoping to get the Back to the Future theme tune played by the organist as we walk in. We're both film freaks and it sounds
    really good done on the organ and slowed right down!
    not mental at all.....its on our list :) xxx
    we are having all songs from films and are thinking of having a film quiz at the night with the winning team getting a round of drinks :)

    thats awesome too and was also on our list!


    We have decided not to go with 'wedding type' songs that are nice n pretty...but have no meaning to us! so we are going for our favourite films and choosing music from them so its extra personalized!
    ok we have to have one song to walk into :

    So far its between these:
    Yes...its Gremlins LOL (one of my films)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K52eb79_we0

    beauty and the beast (my fav disneys....OH said he will take the sniggering from the guests after being called a beast LOL)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewfCR-qLeOY

    and willows journey begins (from willow - another one of my films!)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On1BYti9epA

    THEN we have to choose THREE songs for signing...only got two so far:
    OH's Fav disney film of all time:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ao5Y80XgpM0

    and from one of my favs...and so fitting coz i always call OH a goonie LOL
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pi6rVFVwti0

    and to walk out to, again from OH's fav disney. LOL fits our venue really well, and its a great motto to have for the rest of our lives together :)

  • I've thought of silly / fun one's for the walk down, but figured I want to take the first part of the ceremony seriously as the vows are important.
    But walking up the aisle with my OH, I'd like to have something more light hearted :)
  • aww raindrops...id still have the fun songs!! doesnt make your vows any less important...your just choosing to have the day how you want it, not how others think you should have it. Of course the vows are what the whole day is about, but it doesnt mean to say u cant have a lighthearted day aswell! xxx
