    So...I think I'm crazy. I've known what my processional will be for the past three years. It's the same melody- "Sakura Kiss" from Ouran High School Host Club- but there's two arrangements, the strings version and the piano.

    I love them, but there's always been something that never quite sold it on me.

    "Sakura Kiss for Strings"

    "Sakura Kiss for Piano"

    However, I've been watching the Oscars, and for some reason the theme from Up has just been sticking with me! I think it would make a sweet, lovely processional, and I feel like it fits me better than the others.

    "Married Life" from Up

    And if anyone has any opinions...that would be fantastic. Because I'm for sure running out of time! The wedding is...um...Saturday.

    If you like it, I say go for it! :D 

    I'm not sure what my processional song was (my brain totally tuned out to the music --we had a strings trio playing-- and the people and I was just concentrating on my husband who was waiting for me at the front), but for the bridal party introduction in the reception we had the "Comet Observatory" song from Super Mario Galaxy (the song that plays while you're running around the main hub in the game), and for the cake cutting we had "Katamaritaino", a song from the Katamari Damacy game series. Before we picked the songs we had also considered some songs from the Cardcaptor Sakura anime and one from InuYasha, lol. So I can see the appeal of using a "non-traditional" song for the processional! :D

    BTW, I like both the Up song and the strings version of the other song :)

    I love the movie Up and the soundtrack!  This song definitely has a lot of different feelings/ emotions though.  You may want to figure out how long your processional will be and make sure you are okay with feeling of the music the whole time you are walking.

     

    I'm sorry - I don't know how to explain this very well...

    Thanks for all the feedback, everybody!! I'm a bit frazzled at the moment, and I do not have time in my schedule for a music freakout. Laughing

    I really love the theme from Up...I know P likes it, and hopefully he'll think it's a good choice too!

    @azula: I love love LOVE your screenname and avatar!! Azula is one of my favorite characters...although Toph and Sokka are my ultimate faves. :)

    I like the Sakura Kiss song, but the Up theme is just so playful and would be so great to walk down the aisle to!  You are so lucky you have a version of it to play!  I voted for the Up theme, it's just too lovely!

    I just talked to P about it...he likes it, but he was leaning towards another song entirely, it turns out. The song he likes start out soft and pretty, and then becomes synth-esque rock. Not good for a ceremony! I really want him to be happy...but I also don't want to upset my grandmother.

    I've really fallen in love with Up! Fingers crossed that P likes it too!
