HELP!! What songs is everyone using when the bridal party and then you and your new husband 'get announced' at the reception - I seem to be having a really hard time with this...I know I don't want the theme from Rocky! Thanks!
Do you have to give this to your DJ or Band? I am having a band and they only asked me if I wanted Low key or high energy - but I would like to know what they are going to play??
The DJ requested a song list and that was one of the choices we have to make - I would prefer to pick something rather than let the DJ run with this particular segment - although I have total confidence in him. I keep trying to think of upbeat, start the party songs that aren't too obnoxious...
Hi..I was thinkin of that same question.
and came up with songs like Billy Joel's
'This is the Time', or Styx's 'The Best
of Times'...or Starships 'Nothing's
Gonna Stop Us Now'..but I don't know how
upbeat that would be to start a party..
I figured that one can be used when the
bride and groom walk in.

We`ve been considering using the opening of Aerosmith`s Sweet Emotions for our parents/grandmother, then build into the intro to Blues Brothers` Gimme Some Lovin for the bridal party, then switch into the Blues Brother`s theme song for us. It will be a great transition of tempos, getting more upbeat and exciting as it goes along.
Amy, I think that is a great idea if you will not be having it earlier -- actually it's not a bad idea even if you are having it earlier.
I've been doing some listening to song samples from Sports CDs...what do you guys think of some of these?
- Get Ready For This
- We Like To Party
- Strike It Up
- Boom Boom Boom
- Everybody Dance Now
Although I'm not sure if any of these is appropriate for my groom and myself!! HELP!
...how about Cake Cutting songs??
Lee,
If we had to vote on those songs, I`d say I prefer Get Ready for This and Everybody Dance Now.
For our cake cutting, I`m not really sure. I keep changing my mind, but that`s okay, we have plenty of time. I was leaning toward James Taylor`s 'How Sweet It Is' but am trying to find something a little more unique.
I really need to get one of those personal recorders. I hear things on the radio while driving, but then forget to write the names down when I get to where I`m going, so I completely lose the ideas!! :(
We're going really wacky - Wierd Al Yankovich - Eat It.
Our first dance was upbeat, so for our entrance we went with the theme from the A-Team, starting with 'In 1972, a crack-commando unit was sent to prison for a crime they didn't commit...' I have an mp3, if anyone wants. The cake song was 'Build Me Up, Buttercup' (one of my favorites).
Hi Kel, I don't have any ideas on an entrance song, I'm looking for one myself, but I do have a suggestion for the Cake Cutting! I heard it on my DJ's demo tape and really, really liked it. It just fit me and my fiance. It's the theme song from 'Mad About You.' My fiance and I have been together a really long time now, and we can truly relate to that show so much! Just an idea! We're going to use it for our cake cutting! Hope it helps!
Mad About You was one of my favorite shows! My fiance and I have been together a long time too, and I do remember the song is cute, I just can`t recall the words ... I`ll have to find it on the web and refresh my memory. Thanks.
We are using We Are In Love by Harry Connick Jr. It doesn'r really 'go', but I love it and had to sneak it into the day somewhere!
My best friend used the Mad About You theme for her cake cutting! It worked so well! : ) She also had her bridal party introduced to the theme song from Friends. She and her husband met while she was on the couch watching Thursday night TV, so that was kind of their 'theme'.
This idea is still in the works. I was thinking about for the bridal party entrance having the theme song from 'Friends' I'll be there for you- by the Rembrendts. Then when we enter-stop the music and play that song from the Jock Jams-Lets get ready to rumble. It think that will be cool. Because the music stops and then you hear the bell, and the announcer says- Ladies and gentleman, and now the main event-
lets get ready to rumble. i dont know, what do you ladies think?

He wants the opening to Sweet Emotion too!! I think it would be great, I'm a HUGE Aerosmith fan!
