    We also wanted Careless Whisper, the Seether version...but similarly it's not really sending good wedding vibes lol!
    LMAO that would be GOLD - I love 'left field' wedding songs - and by that I mean the non smaltzy traditional ones (although we caved a bit)

    DH is a mad Iron Maiden fan, we just couldn't find any Maiden that was 'Weddingy' LMAO

    Love this thread PZ - song is gorgeous by the way.

    Ours was 'i've been loving you' by Otis Redding.
    Oh, so good. I can't get enough Otis.

    Ours would have been You're my best friend by Queen as ultimately that is what we wanted to celebrate.
    Nice!

    Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley a fav from way back and a bit non traditional!
    Ahhhhhhhh, beautiful Joeve. Make me a bit teary though, all of JB's songs do.

    We got married in Vegas (Elvis and everything) so naturally I walked down the aisle to Love me Tender and we exited as man and wife to Viva Las Vegas. Very funny.

    Though our 'real' songs for each other are:
    Always on my Mind, Pet Shop Boys (him for me)
    Man who sold the World, Nirvana (him for me - dating phase, 11 years ago!)
    Let's Stick Together, Bryan Ferry (me for him)
    Sunday Kind of Love, Etta James (me for him - At Last makes me feel all romantical too).

    More, more!

    We're not married yet but the song we will dance to will probably be our song which is Take My breath Away (cant remember who the original singer is) but its from DP's favourite movie Top Gun and he said that the song reminds him of me. Other wise the song Lucky by Quinn and Sam from Glee as i think its a gorgeous song.

    That's really sweet.

    I still think the bit in Love Actually where the best man organising musicians to sing/play 'all you need is love' That's awesome.

    We had an old fashioned theme for our wedding (check out the photos on FB), so our music reflected that. Our dance was 'Sway' by Dean Martin.
    I walked down the aisle to 'Po Kare Kare Ana', a Moari love song
    During signing we had 'What a Wonderful World' by Louis Armstrong and 'When I fall in love' by Nat King Cole
    At the end of the ceremoney we had 'I feel good' by James Brown along with a confetti cannon

    Other songs we thought of using included Aerosmith "I dont want to miss a thing' and 'Stand by me' but we wanted to stick to our theme.

    Re: the Tim Minchin song, it's sweet and made me tear up. If it works for you, use it.

    We had 2 as well. DH was a DJ for 15yrs and insisted on it .. (One is too short, Three is too long).

    So in order.

    Come What May
    and
    At The Beginning

    Wanted to add - I walked down the "aisle" in a very 'non traditional' way. This was that song... Yes, the wedding music was heavily influenced by my fangurlism

    FFX2 OST


    Hmm, better explain that what I am saying here is that if this is the song you want, then that is what you want. No music is out of place at a wedding, unless the couple do not want it played.

    But for you and your DF, I think on the aisle, you should look up Silver Mercurys version of Pachabels Canon. Pure Awesome.

    2 favs here too I note I wasn't the only one here lusting after Jareth then

    PZ - could you get your hair done like in Labyrinth? Not sure about the dress - might be a bit 80's puff but I love the hair pieces.
