Almost everybody makes music a part of their wedding ceremony. It is a common practice to play music as the bridal entourage arrives and an exclusive song for the lady as she walks towards her future husband waiting at the altar. Then another song is performed following the official announcement of the couple's matrimony and this song is continuously played from the church to the wedding reception. Music that will be used for the ceremony does not have to be traditional. It can be anything that the couple chooses, especially songs that might have some memorable meaning for both of them.
As my fianc and I had to make a selection of songs that will be played in our wedding, I was positively sure I would like to march in another tune than "Here Comes The Bride". I clearly remember that as a child, we use to make fun of this song and add different funny lyrics into it. Besides, I want something distinct and upbeat. So we met with our organ player to discuss with her our choice of music for the wedding.
Traditional, But, Less Popular Choice
An Unexpected Emotional Reaction
My future husband's reaction to all these was quite unexpected. Just like most of the men I know, he does not offer comments or show reaction about a lot of things. He just observes and keeps pretty much to himself. When organist played the repertoire of music we were to consider, she also naturally played "Here Comes The Bride".
Much to my surprise, tears sprung from the eyes of my husband-to-be and he blurted out that he always imagined me walking down the aisle towards him with that song playing. With a few tears, I was overruled, and we ended up using it because I knew how much it meant to him.
If you are getting married any time soon, you will have to contend with the choosing of music which will be used in the ceremony. Decide on something that will go well with your taste or theme, regardless if is traditional or modern.
There are thousands of songs to select from. The internet, your friends and your organist can give you some innovative ideas. You should pay attention your fianc's reaction to of all this considering that he is the other half for which all this preparation is intended for. - 15683
