montage song help

as some of you may know my FH is making our wedding montage to be played at the reception - he's made a ton of them in the past for DJ clients and they are all pretty standard - so FH wants to do something totally different for ours - 'something that has never been seen before' (whatever that means! scares me a little ) basically he wants to do something totally different - i have suspicion that he is using video snippets, and he wants to go very untraditional with the music selection - he said he already has a song for my pictures, and lots of ideas for our song but he can't think of anything for when his photos play - this is where LIW comes in any ideas of different songs that can relate to growing up pictures of a guy? any kind of music - but i think he is looking for ideas that are more upbeat and fast......we couldnt think of anything last night - so i thought some of you might have some good ideas that can at least point us in some different directions....

ugh i have no idea - he won't tell me what my song is but i have a feeling that its Justin Timberlake - My Love because he knows that i love that song and yesterday when i was trying to guess he was getting mad because i guessed that one so im guessing something like pop maybe hip hop - we were joking that he should use 99 problems but a b!tch ain't one how totally inappropriate would that be!

You should listen to the song At the Beginning-from the movie Anastasia.
My cousin used it for her montage and I thought it was perfect and so cute!!!

Re: montage song help

hahaha these lyrics are really funny when you read them

Im the definition of: half man, half drugs
Ask the clubs - bad boy, thats whassup
After bucks, crush crews after us
No games, we aint laughin much
Nothin but big thangs, check the hitlist
How we twist ****, what changed but the name?
We still here, you rockin wit the best
Dont worry if I write rhymes - I write checks (hah!)
Whos the boss? dudes is lost
Dont think cause Im iced out, ima cool off
Who else but me? (who else? ) and if you dont feel me
That mean you cant touch me, its ugly, trust me
Get it right dawg, we aint ever left
We just, moved in silence and repped to the death (yeah)
Its official, I survived what I been through
Yall got drama, the saga continues...

[chorus]
We aint, go-in nowhere, we aint, goin nowhere
We cant be stopped now, cause this bad boy for life
We aint, go-in nowhere, we aint, goin nowhere
We cant be stopped now, cause this bad boy for life

[black rob]
Hey yo straight from the harlem streets
I dont play, I push it down with the harlem heat (uh-huh)
All a sudden niggaz got a problem wit me (black, what happened? )
They run around actin like the black-o cant eat
And you know what? (what? ) for some strange reason (uhh)
Im off of this medication, feelin deranged needin
For yall to put the word out (cmon, cmon) we aint leavin
We tryin to be rich before we all stop breathin
Therefore (what? ) we kinda hustle lames
Stay layin down our muscle games (cmon)
Still turn niggaz dreams to flames (yeah) you got the wire
If not I aint sayin no names; youll soon expire; (heh)
No pain (nothin) I feel remorse
Yes of course its me and diddy up first racin porsches
Wit the big twin valve exhaust-es {*screeching*} (yeah)
On the cover of ya vibes, xxls and sources ***** (cmon, lets go)

[chorus]

[mark curry]
Yeah, yeah, yo, yeah
It aint **** changed, since the notorious (we miss you b.i.g.)
See everything still glorious (yeah)
We still got +warriors+, still be the +victorious+ (thats right)
See its a lot of them, but its more of us
Still got cash to blow, raps to flow
Still them cats that know, pack ya flow
Thats fo sho, bottles that pop, joints that rock
Played the background, hand on my jock, holdin my glock (hahaha)
Money to get (yeah), cars to flip (uhh)
Bars to sit at and sip cognac wit jewels that drip (cmon)
Hoes to see (uhh), make sure they knowin its me (they know its you)
Drop that beat, cant believe that I mc (haha)
Bad boy til the casket drop (bad boy) gotta love it
Place nuttin above it (nuttin) its on like that (cmon)
Dont believe, we aint goin like that
Were always gonna be here (yeah)
We there (uhh) every motherfuckin year!

[chorus] - 2x

[p. diddy over chorus]
Bad boy.. we aint goin nowhere
Uh-huh.. uh-huh.. what?
We aint goin nowhere.. we gon stay right here
For ever, and ever, and ever, and ever.. cmon
We aint goin nowhere.. we gon stay right here
We aint goin nowhere.. we gon stay right here
Yeah, uh-huh.. uh-huh, uh-huh
Cause its bad boy for life!

this is something that is played when everyone is seated - usually during dinner....we are doing things a little different b/c my FH wants things to be a little different than all of the parties he works we are getting introduced into the room and then we might do our montage right then and there - we'll watch from the dancefloor - b/c my FH is surprising me with it and i guess the DJ will announce that he has a surprise for me (even though i already know he is making it) then after that we will go into our first dance....montages are usually 3-8 minutes long - its different than the slideshow they put up while you do your dances - we are doing that as well - there will be photos of my dad and i on the TVs while we dance

oh ok i got ya...so for the montage is it just pics of you and FH seperately throughout growing up....and then when you got together till now?

and then for the slideshows during the dances do you normally have pics of you and fh while you dance, you and your dad and fh and his mom??

sorry as you can tell i didn't have interest in the dj part of planning that was fh's job! but now turned into mine haha

Re: montage song help

we are doing one montage of FH and I - its my baby pics, his baby pics, then us together

then later on in the night during dinner we are doing a friends and family montage - pics of us with our family and friends

during dance with my dad im going to have a little slideshow repeat on the TV - not sure if we are doing that for FH's dance with his mom - i wanted that to be something special for just my dad and i....when FH and I dance the DJ might use pics of us from the wedding on the screen - like pics of us that day...

and before cake and the VH the DJ is doing a ceremony re-cap - similair to what denise had from pennylane - except our DJ does it, not a videographer - its a quick recap of the ceremony to music and then us saying part of our vows...

oh that is a good idea...thanks Nicole!

Actually i think i remember my photographer saying he would be able to do that....put pics of us from the ceremony on the screens while we dance. The photographer and Dj company are in the same building and work well together so they don't have a problem doing that thankfully.

But i like your idea about the family and friends montage very nice!
