Ceremony Songs

We're getting married in a temple and just found out that we can use whatever songs we want to walk down the aisle. I always thought we walked to Jewish songs, but apparently that's not the case. Any suggestions on nice songs to walk down the aisle to?

Re: Ceremony Songs

Are you looking for a more traditional feel or something more contemporary? How is the music to be played? Live or recorded?

Re: Ceremony Songs

It's going to be played live, but no one will be singing. It doesn't have to be traditional. Some Beatles songs I know are good that we'll probably use like Here, There and Everywhere.

That's also what we are walking down the aisle to.

So far, it's Trumpets Voluntaire (I think that is what it's called)?

Re: Ceremony Songs

I used Canon in D for the BM's & Trumpet Voluntary (aka Trumpet Voltaire) for me ... trumpets sounded sooooo beautiful ... actually had a trumpet player come (but that's a long story!)

Honestly , vinnie & I were just saying how neither of us actually heard the music played ... we were so focused on each other! They could've played Mary Had a Little Lamb for all I knew!
