    Our wedding songs were:

    walking down the isle song? A moment like this - kelly clarkson
    signing the certificate song? Amazing - lonestar
    what was your bridal waltz song? We didn't actually do a dance as our wedding was very informal, but I had Simply the best - Tina Turner & Jimmy Barnes

    Answered then DS managed to get rid of the post! He's supposed to be watching Roary!

    Down the aisle to Arrival of the Queen of Sheba - I didn't want dad next to me singing "here comes the bride, all fat and wide" and my sister calls me Queenie as a nickname.

    Hymns:
    Dear Lord and Father of Mankind
    Bind Us Together
    Lord of all hopefulness
    Make me a channel of your peace

    Basically just to start married life well, thinking about love and forgiveness and other people as opposed to it being just about what I wanted.

    Signing the register - I had wanted the third movement of Bruch's Scottish Phantasia, which is GORGEOUS, but couldn't get anyone to play it. So we let the choir sing what they wanted. They were pleased about it. I think they sang the Skye Boat Song - I didn't get to hear it so I didn't really mind.

    Walking back up the aisle was to Beethoven's Ode to Joy from his 9th... bit cliched, but it wasn't sung which I had requested so that wasn't so great.

    First dance was to We Have All The Time In The World (Louis Armstrong): so many arguments about that one! It was a relief just to find a song we both agreed on. Crappy DJ though (mum insisted on this one rather than letting me pick something!) so can't really recall much more of the music.

    This is so fun! So exciting for you, I adored my Wedding.

    We walked down the isle to pachebels canon (the done thing)

    Register was signed to a friend singing "Crazy Love" by Van Morrison

    And the waltz was started with "Sunshine of my Life" by Stevie Wonder then there was a big scratch sound and we did a fully choregraphed dance to "Hey Ya" by Outcast ending with a Dirty Dancing style lift. We are both big showoffs!

    Have the best time, the best advice I got was take a little minute alone with your husband during the reception, that's the part I remember the most.

    Aw, this is lovely. we had..

    Walking down the aisle- Bittersweet symphony (instrumental version). I actually pinched that idea off another BB member in a thread like this one, but i can't remember who it was now. tinks, maybe it was you?

    Signing the registry- the rivers runs by yakamo (from the twilight movie- beautiful piece of music)

    After the cermony- Mystify by INXS

    Walking into the reception- Dream Catch Me by newton faulkner

    Wedding dance- Mandy Moore's version of Rhianna's umbrella (youtube it, it's gorgeous). Another idea froma Bb member (Niadla, if I remember correctly?).

    On a sidenote, my car got broken into a few weeks ago, and they stole my wedding cd. I can make another one, but it's not the same. devastated
