    Hey guys,

    I'm getting married in 4 weeks time in Cyprus which is going to be a small but lovely civil ceremony. We're trying to decide on the wedding music at the moment and want to make it personal, so as I love PJ, we thought it would be fitting to try and use a song for when my other half walks "down the isle".

    She really loves the song "Black" and it's definately my fav song, but i'm not sure it's appropriate given the meaning. What do you think?

    Any other song suggestions?

    my advice is to go classy on her walk down the aisle. i used "no surprises" by radiohead, but the christopher o'reilly piano version. I dont think you really want words, do you? take away from her moment. so maybe a re-worked version of a PJ song.

    if you are goign to go with an actual tune. Long Road from the fallen heroes soundtrack is a good one. i used that for the music when people were taking their seats.
    those undecided, needn't have faith to be free

    We've decided on Guaranteed from the Eddie Vedder Into the Wild album. It's just feels like a really appropriate song.

    It's going to be played from a cd, not by a band unfortunately.

    Thanks for the suggestions.

    Congratulations and good choice. Enjoy your night!

    Good to hear the others mentioned Throw Your Arms Around Me. It's still one of our fav's. Here's what my wife & I used for our wedding...

    Hail, Hail and Given to Fly in Rehersal Dinner video / picture show
    Throw Your Arms Around Me was our dance at the reception.
    Then, the last song of the night was Untitled / mfc as we ran out to our mini fast car.

    I walked down the aisle to "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" from the Smashing Pumpkins. It's the beautiful piano intro from the Mellon Collie album. The title got everyone talking once they saw it on the program.

    Our first dance was Eddie's cover of Throw Your Arms Around Me from Boston I believe.

    I love that piano piece... i had the sheet music and I got someone who had never heard it to play it. They just tapped away and i was blown away by it... they had timing out slightly.. but fucking hell :p

    My wife and I played that at our recepetion too. Also Thin Air. We made a cd of our favorite songs to give the guests and both were on it. My Wife by The Who closed the cd. My nephew played his guitar for us when we walked the aisle. I couldn't think of any PJ so he played What A Wonderful World for my wife and Pinball Wizard for me.

    What can I say... classy taste!
