I think this is a fantastic idea!!
We were originally going to get FI's BIL to play guitar and sing our first dance song (Steady as we go...by Dave Matthews Band) but we decided to go with the original. Maybe we'll get him to play for when I walk down the aisle...thanks for the idea!!!

Oh no prob!! YAY!! My first time my idea helped someone since I joined the forum!! (only joined a few days ago though!! LOL! Tell your DF about it and let me know what you plan on doing!! If your BIL sings during your walk, will it still be the same song?? Good luck hun!!

I don't think it will be the same song...the first time I hear it that day I will want it to be in his arms!! Hmmmm...I don't know what song it will be...I'll have to do some research...I really haven't thought about music at all yet!! I'm trying to get all my "stuff!" ordered so that I won't have to pay for rush items at the last minute!! I'll have to focus on music soon I guess though!! Less than 4 mths to go!! YAY!!!

For our ceremony, I plan to have "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" playing while people are being seated and the Groom, MOH and BM walk in. I am walking down the aisle to "I Could Not Ask For More" if there is time during sand ceremony I would have "Better Together" playing and we will be exiting to "Beautiful Day" Although these aren't traditional "wedding" songs, they fit us as a couple.

I'm having the same problem and I'm running out of time. The only song we have picked is Making Memories by Keith Urban.

Okay call me a dork, I've been doing nothing but listen to the songs I've chosen, and I love it. But dang, I'm scared I'll love the crap outta it and when the day comes, I'll be sick of the song!! LOL!!
