I'm trying to think of some songs for them to play before the ceremony. I want it to be a nice soothing acoustic picking and a pretty lead/fills going over it. Any suggestions?

So far, all I've got are "Everything" by Lifehouse, and "Halleluja" by Jeff Buckley.

It's just music, no singing to go with it.

Basically something that you could hear a string quartet doing, but w/ a trio of guitars.

    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    The only problem w/ "Sometimes" is that it's kind of repetitive, I don't want it to be basically a loop of the same 30 seconds for 3 minutes.

    Know what I mean?

    I love Inlaw Josie Wales by Phish.

    Bron Y'aur from Zeppelin is cool.

    A friend and I love to play Mayonaisse by Smashing Pumpkins acoustic. Beautiful intro, great chord progression and some tasty licks on top of it.

    Take a listen to All The King's Horses by Robert Plant (some random video that uses the music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8dVqO-9n8s )

    Simon and Garfunkel...
    they have quite a few nice acoustic arrangements that i think would be wedding-friendly.
