@mcinemi: Have you heard Stephen Tyler's Feels so good. I love that song also Michael Buble's -Eeverything these are both cheery!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8Hgp150Eno it's perfect.... listen especially to the chorus.... "lucky i'm in love with my best friend ............ "
lol sorry i didn't read the entire post....until just now *embarrassed* lol...
Our Bridesmaids walked in to The Beatles I Will I had 4 bridesmaids including my MOH
For my processional we didn't stay as upbeat but still used a non-traditional song
So Are You to Me by Eastmountainsouth
Hope that helps the ideas going... and I LOVE LOVE LOVE your postcard invite. I so shoulda gone that route. lol
@caribbeanGirl: Haha that's OK! It's a great one and I do think we'll use it in the prelude :) perfect!
@amnystik: Thanks I'll look those up!
And yeah, the postcards were SO cheap! haha, we ordered 250 of them and it cost $40 bucks. Stamps were around $60 for 100
We are using
Falling for You- Colbie Caillet (bridal party)
Falling In Love at a Coffee Shop - Landon Pigg (me)
@bearshoney: Thanks for the suggestions! I have heard that song by Steven Tyler. I'll add it to the list of possibles (I haven't talked to the groom yet haha)
This is making me feel OLD, but it's the first thing I though of! LOL!
Not sure what kind of music youre into but this song is pretty upbeat and fun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTbAkwZ4JKU&feature=related&safety_mode=true&persist_safety_mode=1&safe=active
Have you heard of the Weepies? (I know, the name sounds sad, but trust me it is deceiving!) Their songs are just happy and upbeat and the "band" is made up of a married couple which I think is so sweet and romantic. Judging by your invitation (which I love!) I think they'd be perfect! I really like:
All This Beauty
Be My Honeypie
Be My Thrill
Simple Life
And if you want upbeat... I think FI and I will exit to "I Was Made For Sunny Days." So fun!
No ideas....but I LOVE your invitations. Sounds like it'll be a very fun wedding!
Okay this might sound a bit odd, but I'm totally planning to use it for some part of my wedding because Mr. Cappugcino and I are each others best friends too. The theme song to the Golden Girls - Thank You for Being A Friend was written and originally recorded Andrew Gold. It takes it out of the GG realm when performed by someone else and is pretty awesome. You can hear it on you tube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2j91hrghPbg&feature=related
@hollygowedding: I LOVE THIS BAND!!!!!
If we don't use it for the recessional or precessional - we are definitely using it in the prelude playlist.
Thank you thank you thank you!!! :)
@sweetdee124: Haha thank you! Everyone seems to really love them :) they were a real hit!
How about Bright Eyes' "This is the First Day of My Life"?

@anne B: I was going to suggest "You're my best friend" from Queen as well--such a great song!
My SO and I just got back from a completely gorgeous, non-traditional wedding in Jackson, WY, and the couple plays in a band together (singer/song-writer/guitar types), and some of their music might be perfect. Upbeat, eclectic, folksy... here's a link to the music (Aaron Davis and Seadar Rose): http://aarondavismusic.com/music/.
i just love it......
i think we might be having this song played at the reception too
Not sure if this fits the bill, but for some reason, "The Way I Am" by Ingrid Michaelson pops into my head.
Colbie Caillat - Lucky We almost did this song for our wedding. I love it! "Lucky to be in love with my best friend..."
@mcinemi - where did you order the postcards for so cheap?? please share, thx!

Sorry, there are no users yet.
Hi everyone!
I'm hoping this thread will generate some ideas for me because I am just stuck!
My FI and I have been best friends for the past... oh, maybe 6 or 7 years. I met him when in was in 10th Grade and he was in College. Obviously our story is nice and long and complicated (haha) so I won't bore you with details!!!
My question is: we need music - mostly for the ceremony. We are VERY non traditional. To give you an idea, here is our invitation (designed by yours truly):
As you can see - it's a postcard style invitation. VERY us :)
But I am having such a hard time finding music - I'm looking for something cute, upbeat and maybe somehow best friendy? I've been parousing the net for days and just haven't found "the song" yet.
I thought we could play songs like "Lucky" by Jason Mraz and cute stuff like that for the prelude. But I'm REALLY stuck on the processional. There are 2 bridesmaids, 2 groomsman, 1 maid of honour and 1 best man, and of course, myself and the groom!
Have any of you been to a wedding that was really fun and upbeat? We don't want the whole solemn tearful entrance thing - we'd love for there to be some cheering!!! :)
