Re: The Official Ceremony Music Thread

I have a string quartet that will play as guests arrive and for the entire ceremony...

processional - pachelbel's canon d
bride- joy of man's desiring (bach)
candle lighting - one hand one heart (theme song from A West Side Story - it sounds so pretty in the strings)
recessional - from this moment (shania twain), obviously the instrumental

Re: The Official Ceremony Music Thread

For BP entrance - Romanze from Mozart, for recessional, Sleeping Beauty Waltz from Tchaikovsky.

During guests entry probably Canon in D, since FH loves it, and some other classical selections.

Still deciding on what I want to use to enter. I know I don't want the traditional wedding march.

Re: The Official Ceremony Music Thread

Processional - Canon in D - Pachelbel

Bride's Processional - Trumpet Voluntary - Clarke

During Reading - Ave Maria (sung)

Recessional - Con Te Partiro - A. Bocelli (played in piano)

The last song made me soooo deliriously happy (it sounded heavenly) that this was my reaction!

Re: The Official Ceremony Music Thread

My wedding isn't until Nov. so I haven't made these decisions yet b/c I still have plenty of time...I just know I LOVE Canon in D, Trumpet Voluntary and Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring so I definitely will use all 3 at some point in the ceremony. Not sure which of the 3 is the best for me to walk in to...I think I am leaning towards Trumpet Voluntary for me. FH is Jewish so told me I am not allowed to use Here Comes the Bride.
And funny b/c I am definitely using One Hand, One Heart for the lighting of the Unity Candle also...I think that's the best for that part!
To walk out - recessional - I like either Hornpipe or Wedding March.

Re: The Official Ceremony Music Thread

We had a dj (band member actually) play music we provided on a cd the whole time.
As guests were being seated we had about 1/2 an hour worth of movie soundtrack songs we picked out.. mostly from Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Braveheart, Harry Potter. All serene songs, nothing too harsh.

Processional:
Grandparents/Bridal Party/Groom/Grooms Parents (it was a Jewish ceremony) - all walked down to Pachabels Canon done by London Symphony Orchestra

Bride with parents - I entered to Enya's 'Only Time' - with the lyrics

Exit - Bride and Groom - Sinatra 'Fly me to the Moon', then we had 'Luck be a Lady' follow it for guests to exit to
