  Songs for walking down the aisle

  Big Bear Joined on 21-Feb-2005 United Kingdom Posts 2,997	Contact Hey I am getting married in a reg office the end of June but can't decide what to walk down the aisle to.  I am coming out to Barry White My First, my last my everything. What song did you or are you walking down the aisle to and when your leaving? Also did you write your own vows where can I get help with this?

  Contact I'm walking down the aisle to Kissing You by Des'ree: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jt-NwAA3Wvo I think it's one of the most beautiful songs ever and knew I had to involve it in my wedding as soon as I heard it on Romeo & Juliet years ago! I was only in my early teens then I don't know what we'll walk out to as yet, but we want something a bit more upbeat. Quite like You're My Best Friend, by Queen, but no other instant ideas spring to mind!

  Contact I walked down the aisle to True Love (from High Society) and we came back up the aisle to When I'm 64. My sister is getting married in November and walking down the aisle to "Isn't She Lovely" by Stevie Wonder and has arranged for a brass section a'la Love Actually to surprise her H2B to walk back up. www.littlebubs.co.uk Check out my Hitched Blog! http://www.hitched.co.uk/Chat/blogs/littlebubs

  Contact Cos we're having a beach wedding there are going to be 1 pieces of music while everyone is waiting the one when I drag myself down the slope to the beach. Theme from Much Ado About Nothing then I'll be walking down to Tender by Blur - we finish the ceremony with this!! . I'd also like to use One Day Like This by Elbow somewhere, so perhaps I'll just have it in the evening …always got her eye on biscuits

We almost used it for our wedding but went for something else in the end.  Are you having the song or the instrumental version?

I adore  this piece of music and would just love to walk down the aisle to it.... but I'd be a wreck by the time I got to my OH. How on earth did you manage to keep it together. I've just listened to it again on You Tube and I'm in bits. I'm hopeless.

Its lovely though - we got so many compliments on it! www.facebook.com/LittleLoveDesigns

I was going to get piped down the aisle but never really settled on that idea but I love Gift of a Thistle and Steven said he would prefer that to the piper.

  debbydoo Joined on 03-Jul-2008 Glasgow Posts 3,080	Contact I'm being piped in and out of the ceremony. On reading the notes from the registrar, it says that you can't have any religious songs - which I knew - but also says even ones without lyrics - which I didn't know! I had thought of having Highland Cathedral but I think this is probably classed as religious. Anyone know? Ruby 15/07/10

I'm not sure really, at first I thought we would go with the instrumental version but thinking about it, I just love her voice and the way she sings it, so may actually have the song itself. I don't know how I'm going to keep it together though to be honest, I well up just listening to it even now!
