    Hi we are getting married in February

    Down the Aisle - Colourblind by counting crows ( I really wanted an instrumetnal version and in the end I have downloaded a guy pplaying it on his piano on youtube!)

    Marriage Certificate - Im Yours - Jason Marz, Ants Marching Dave - Matthews, Someone to watch over me - Etta James

    First Dance- Have I told you lately that I love you - Van Morrison

    I also liked the idea of Suddenly by Angry Anderson for the first dance but decided no, we are omly dancing for about 45seconds before people are invited to join because we can't dance! Even with lessons Id be to unco too dance properly without falling over, staying on my feet down the aisle will be challenge enough me thinks!

    Song playing when we walked as husband and wife out of the church: garden wedding and just whatever was on the CD

    I'm getting married in 39 days...i'm not counting!

    I'm on Limewire and iTunes as we speak!! This thread prompted me to sort out the music side of the wedding! So thank you .

    Walking down the aisle: Pachabels Canon in D Major

    Signing the register: DF and my 'song' Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol (I have a version from some fitness music I instruct with, it goes for just over 6 mins, but DF thinks that won't be long enough, so I'm on the hunt for another song...). UPDATE - possibly Halo by Beyonce....I've resorted to lyric websites for ideas now lol...

    Walking out: Although its a garden wedding I've picked Night of my Life by Damien Leith.

    Good Luck!!

    Hi there - hope my relpy isnt too late, and congrats on the marriage
    These were the songs we had:

    Walking down the aisle: "Songbird" - Eva Cassidy

    Signing the register: "Arithmetic" - Brooke Frazer
    (This is the most gorgeous gorgeous song. Its lyrics are beautiful!)

    Walking out:: "This Way" - Jewel

    We also had:
    Reception Entrance: "What I Like About You" - The Romantics
    Cutting Cake: "Soul Reason" - John Farnham
    First Dance: "Cowboy Take Me Away" - Dixie Chicks
    Father/Daughter Dance: "I Loved Her First" - Heartland

    And these ones on our DVD
    "Never let you go" - Evermore
    "Everyday is a Holiday with You" - Estero
    "Take my Breath Away" - Eva Cassidy
    "Making Memories of Us" -Keith Urban
    "Its your Love" - Tim McGraw
    "Everything" - Michael Buble
    "Beautiful to Me" - Little Birdy
    "Better Together" - Jack Johnson

    Bear in mind that it was 2 years ago so some of the songs are a little outdated - plus I married a cowboy, hence the country music I was also VERY about the lyrics
