I am still stuck on the walking in song, does anyone have any suggestions, I really don't want anything classical, have figured out the rest of the ceremony apart from this one song.

Help!!!

How about Shania Twain's 'from this moment' listen to the words carefully and youll see why!

Me and my df have chosen these so far:

I think we will have vey different choices to everyone else as we wanted to go with rock songs we like rather than the traditional wedding-type stuff.

Prelude- Bic Runga-Sway
Entrance- It Must Be Love-Madness
The 3 inbetween I dunno but there is a Slick Shoes song about getting married which is really sweet.
Exit- Letters To You-Finch (Our Song)- or df suggested a song by Goldfinger 'I Wanna Marry My Stalker'- which I've gotta admit would be pretty funny!
First Dance-Swing Life Away-Rise Against OR Good Thing-Reel Big Fish
Dad & Daughter Dance- Van Morrison- Brown Eyed Girl (Special to me and my Dad)
Mum & Son Dance- Maggie May- Rod Stuart (Likewise for my DF and his Mum and my Mum loves it to)
Last Dance- God Gave Rock And Roll To You-Kiss (for my FIL to be)

We had a selection of music for when the guests were gathering. Mainly stuff that I liked (that were appropriate) and songs that meant something to us. David Bowie's Starman went down the best.
My wife walked down the isle to the Winnie-The-Pooh theme tune played on accustic guitar (she's a big WtP fan). Was perfect when it stopped as our 18 month old son clapped.
Signing the register we had Shania Twain's From This Moment (as per rachaelc, above).
Then we got everyone stood up and singing Sonny and Cher's I Got You, Babe. This was a great moment - why should guests only get to sing in a church wedding?
Then our big exit number was I Believe in a Thing Called Love, by The Darkness. Caused quite a few smiles.

Was a wonderful day. Will never forget it.

Hi Rachael,

Thankyou everyone else for your suggestions I am You tubing some of them now, its nice to have some fresh Ideas.

For my aisle music I had the Ice Dance music from Edward Scissorhands. It's a beautiful, sweeping instrumental track and we used software to trim the track to the exact part we wanted for me walking down the aisle. It definitely went with my dress and made me feel like an angel walking down the aisle.

That is such a beautiful piece of music. Mind if I copy you?

We'll be leaving to Bring me Sunshine, the Morecombe & Wise version .
It was the very first and easiest decision to make about the whole wedding.

We're entering to Love Me Tender by Elvis and leaving to Don't Stop Me Now by Queen but no idea for the registry signing!
