    Any suggestions on songs for the bridal party and processional for the bride? The wedding will be outside so I want to do something different than the traditional stuff.

    We are also doing an outdoor reception and using "Things Meant to Be" by Xavier Rudd. VERY appropriate for an outdoor wedding, as it mentions Mother Nature and such.

    "It's in the wind It's in the trees It's in the way you smile At me It's in the waves up from the sea It's in the way you feel When you're pleased And it's all meant to be"

    I am walking down the aisle to "Truly Madly Deeply" by Ray LaMontagne (not Savage Garden version). It is a gorgeous instrumental that compliments the other song well.

    Recessional is "She's Mine" by Brett Dennen. Jazzy, feel good song :)

    We are having a bagpiper do our ceremony music. We are getting married outside and one of the nice things about a piper is you don't have to worry about the volume level... needless to say, no one will have a hard time hearing :) I'm not sure exactly what songs we'll have them play- wedding march for me, maybe highland cathedral for the rest of the processional and still undecided for recessional.

    Probably a little late  but I saw your post that Ingrid Mitchelson is your first dance and your wedding is in june 2012 me too on both counts.

    Here are some ideas for songs if you have not decided already!

    bright eyes -first day of my life

    Iron and wine flightless bird

    Damien rice - cannon ball

    You and me - the wannadies

    Inara george fools in love

    Juno soundtrack - anyone else

    jewel-bombay bicycle club

    fyfe dangerfield - always a woman

    made up love song - guillimots

    jose gonzallez- heart beat

    the promise tracy chapman

     

    Im having the final countdown!

     

    Good luck hope this was of some help!

    Ours was outdoors and it was awesome. 

    Seating of the Mothers and Groom's Entrance: Clocks by Coldplay but interpreted by Vitamin String Quartet

    Bridesmaids/Flowergirl: Seasons of Love from RENT interpreted by Vitamin String Quartet

    Bride's Procession: Blackbird by the Beatles interpreted by Vitamin String Quartet

     

    I loved and LOVE our songs.  When my iPod shuffles and plays one of them, I almost always tear up because it immediately takes me back to the happiest day of my life.
