    I am!!!  Well, only for guests arriving and for MY processional.  But the rest of the ceremony music still has a holiday vibe to it.  If you're not using Christmas music what are you using?

     

    Here's my list:

    Guests Arriving: "O Tannenbaum", "Greensleeves", "The Christmas Song", "Christmas Is Coming" all by Vince Guaraldi Trio

    Bridesmaids: "Magic In The Air" by Badly Drawn Boy

    Me: "Christmastime is Here"(Alternate Vocal Take 5) by Vince Guaraldi Trio

    Recessional: "You Are The Best Thing" by Ray Lamontagne

    My list is not written in stone, but I have considered these songs during the ceremony:

    Bridal Processional- Christmas Canon Rock

    My entrance - Carol of the Bells (Instrumental: Home for the Holidays, 101 String Orchestra)

    I will probably have a few more instrumental Christmas songs mixed into the music while we are eating.

    I need help!  My wedding is literally 3 days before Christmas so of course I am working some Christmas music into my wedding, but not wanting to go overboard.  We're not having a traditional wedding so I am also incorporating String Quartet Tribute songs such as Viva La Vida (Coldplay).  So far this is what I have come up with:

    Prelude: Crash Into Me-Dave Matthews Band (Instrumental) and Viva La Vida- Coldplay (Instrumental)

    Bridal Processional: Carol of the Bells - George Winston

    Bride Entrance: the first minute and forty seconds of Christmas Canon Rock

    Recessional: (TO BE DETERMINED)

    Is it ok to mix all of these together? Any ideas for my Recessional?  I was considering a song by the Beach Boys but then thought it wouldn't flow...

    I am having a Catholic wedding, so it will be religious type of music. I am having beautiful singers/guitarists. They will play Canon in D, and some other pretty religious songs....they can also play some romantic, non-religious songs, but I have yet to pick them out.

    However, at my reception I plan to use Christmas music for the cocktail hour and maybe for the dining hour?
