lamradio Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 The acoustic version of "Everlong" by The Foo.. Yeah, I'm not a big Foo fan, but that's just a great song acoustically... My wedding was great.. very small.. And for our honeymoon, we drove across the country to Los Angeles.. good times.. good times.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
myboyblue Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I am getting married in June and am still stumped as to what our first song would be.... Might I recommend "All the Right Reasons" by the Jayhawks? I was just discussing this topic with friends that are getting married in June. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sunken mountain Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 The waltz of "The godfather" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
remphish1 Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Might I recommend "All the Right Reasons" by the Jayhawks? I was just discussing this topic with friends that are getting married in June. Interesting choice...we are having a live band so they will have to figure out how to play whatever song we choice. My fiance will let me choose but she was hoping I don't pick something obscure to the avarage person! If it was "Really" up to me I would pick I'm the Man Who Loves You....

Lynch Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 We got married in '04. We had a band for the ceremony, consisting of my future bro-in-law (guitar), and three other friends (mandolin, pedal steel, and guitar). Before the ceremony and while my wife walked in they played instrumental versions of Innocence Mission ( That Was Another Country and Everything Is Different Now). During the registry signing they did an amazing version of Bruce Cockburn's "Live On My Mind", with all four guys switching off vocals (and the pedal steel player was great, his name is Bill Western, who has played with Nathan and other bands around here). We walked out to the Lemonheads "Into Your Arms". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
muller Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 We had Marvin Gaye and Tammi Tarrell 'You're All I Need To Get By' closely followed by 'Oh My Sweet Carolina' by Ryan Adams. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Good Old Neon Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 My wife and I fled the state of Massachusetts and all the wedding plans and suggestions and choices our families were just beginning to foist on us, choosing instead to elope in Bar Harbor, ME Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimjiminy Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 We danced to "Slow Dancing" by U2. The singer and other guitar player from my high school / college band performed for us. When the guitar player got married, we sang the song at his reception. Finally, after many fiancees and many years, the singer got married and we played it at his reception. The circle is now complete. The rest of the time we had a fingerstyle guitar player named Larry Pattis perform. He's really good if you like that sort of thing.

Lammycat Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 We got married outdoors in the mountains. We had a guitar and a mandolin guy playing a medley of GD and Folk tunes for the ceremony and a fairly popular Bluegrass band for the reception. I don't recall a first tune, just lots of good music in general. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
macramaniac Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Ok this was 11 years ago so please, not too many harsh comments (although I still like the song). "Tonight" by David Bowie and Tina Turner. We had a soul, fun, wedding band who for the most parts played atrocious "party" songs. But I must say, they absolutely nailed this one.

M. (hristine Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 My favorite wedding reception band was a klezmer band, and I couldn't name but two songs: Have Nagila and the Chicken Dance song. We did all kinds of crazy dancing that night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
