What song did you walk down the aisle to?

[ErlingHaalandsManBun]

My DD is getting married next year and we have been discussing songs for her to walk down the aisle to.

She is quite 'alternative' and not at all 'soppy' (her words not mine!) and doesn't want anything too lovey dovey.

So what did you chose and why? I may get some sneaky good ideas for her 😜

For reference when I married my DH I walked down to Chaka Khan 'Love Me Still'

A piano version of groovy kind of love

Fleetwood Mac - Landslide ❤️

I had the Godfather theme.

As the world falls down by David Bowie from the movie Labyrinth

Fabulous! I do like that tune.

I didn’t know about this. I thought it was usually Here Comes the Bride

Oh holy night sang by a male voice choir for our wedding 20 years ago.

We’re having Rains of Castamere for our renewal song later this year!

“Lamb” by Gorecki.

‘Take a chance on me’ by ABBA 😁😁

Falling in love with you - sung live by actual Elvis - well he said he was! In Vegas

Thousand years by the piano guys

I thought about Danse Macabre or Special Brew by Bad Manners but eventually settled on My Baby Just Cares for Me by Nina Simone

At My Most Beautiful (REM) which was DH's choice.

We walked back up the aisle to Levellers' Beautiful Day.

Only if you have no imagination! I don't think I've ever been to a wedding where they've played Here Comes the Bride!

I had pachelbel’s canon - very traditional. But what about a rock version of it?

Instrumental version of ribbon in the sky by Stevie Wonder

Never been to a wedding which had Here Comes The Bride.

Into My Arms Nick Cave.
Dances were Something Changed (Pulp), Rainy Night in Soho (Pogues) and Tonight I'll be staying here with you (Bob Dylan).

String quartet version of Never Tear Us Apart by INXS

Fleetwood Mac - songbird

I wear your ring - Cocteau Twins

I wanted this so badly !!

Here there and everywhere, The Beatles

Fair enough. I haven’t been to a wedding for a long time to be fair

What's wrong with a good classical piece? Or at least something that's just an instrumental? Something with words is going to be very distracting or, at least, risk being soppy - which she sensibly doesn't want.
