Catholic Brides - music

I am starting to plan out the ceremony and was wondering if there is a good place to look for music selections for the ceremony.

I need some ideas for communion songs.

TIA

Re: Catholic Brides - music

We're having 'The Prayer' played & sung by our organist and singer.

Re: Catholic Brides - music

we're doing 'You Raised Me Up' by Josh Groban.

And probably 'God Blessed The Broken Road' by Rascall Flatts'

And maybe 'Grow Old Along with Me' and/or a traditional Catholic/Christian song, like How Great Thou Art.

Re: Catholic Brides - music

we are playing two songs during communion...
How Great Thou Art and Lord You Have Come. the first one is one of my grandmother's favorites and i loved it when i heard it.... the second one has to do with a fisherman in a way, so i chose it for FH since he's a big fisherman!

Re: Catholic Brides - music

our church gave us a CD, I just haven't listened to it yet to pick my music.

Thanks for this thread! It really came in handy. We have to meet with the music person from the church next week. Also that wedalert link was good too. Thanks!
