Another thread reminded me of our songs:

my entrance: "Hand Bags and Glad Rags" (Rod Stewart) - string quartet version

My wife's processional: "Maybe I'm Amazed" (Paul McCartney) - string quartet version

Recessional: "Happy" (Travis)....our DJ blasted the song right after we were pronounced....caused a nice celebratory vibe as we walked out of the hall. Many of our friends are Travis fans, so it was very meaningful. We also used "Everything is in it's right place" by Radiohead....symbolic title, and it was a nice mellow song while people exited the hall.

Our entrance music into the reception was Baba O'Reilly

Our first dance was "And I love Her" by the Beatles......a straight-forward rumba...easy to fake the dance steps!

    I'm guessing "Everyday" isn't one of their loud anthems?
