Bride recording song to walk down the aisle...

[JoLo908]

Okay... I am a singer, and I thought an awesome thing to do would be to record a song to walk down the aisle to. I figured I would go in to the studio for a few hours with a friend who composes and plays the piano (she is absolutely amazing) and lay down a song. I think my fiance would really like this since he loves when I sing. Now...

 

I was debating on writing an original song for him, or covering a song. Pros and cons.

With the original, he would like it, but I think he might be too caught up in the happenings to really listen to it and the lyrics...

with the cover... he loves when I sing songs by Heart and Whitney Houston, but we always listen to the song "Love of a Lifetime" by firehouse. I thought it might be awesome to do a slow version of this song, just my voice, and the piano. The words are great, and the tune is really pretty. I just wanted to get some feedback and opinions from some of you ladies! Thank you so much in advance!!!

I think you can write him a song, but don't use it for you walking down the isle.. Sing it to him later on

 

Sing a song that you both love

That is a great idea! I'm doing something similar...Our song is Rest of My Life by Brian McKnight and I'm going to input a couple of my own verses into the song, record it, and give it to him for him to listen to while he's looking through the BD that I had made for him. That way he has time to listen to the lyrics and get himself together prior to the ceremony....lol.

 

I would say go for the original song, but make sure you give him a recording for him to listen to after the ceremony just in case he misses anything during your walk down the aisle (which I'm sure he will)!

Hi there!

 

I would also say to do your own song but sing it to him maybe during the reception but not as you are walking down the aisle.

 

I'm sure that he will love that you made a song just for him. It will be hard to focus on the song as you are walking down the aisle.

 

I wish I could sing....

That's an awesome idea!  Wish I was talented like that!

That is a lovely idea, I think you should write your own song celebrating your life together
