Can any Mumsnetters help us find a quirky, upbeat song for walking back up the aisle after our ceremony?

Pharell Williams - "Happy"

I love this song!!

Mrsmorrison13 · 27/01/2014 22:45

I had in my life by the Beatles played by a strung quartet x

sanityawol · 27/01/2014 22:45

We had the Minder theme tune... but we didn't take the music choices entirely seriously. Grin

sanityawol · 27/01/2014 22:47

A more obvious one could be 'Signed, Sealed, Delivered' by Stevie Wonder?

K999 has a good suggestion though.

Head over feet - Alanis Morrisette.

sanityawol · 27/01/2014 22:55

Oh, oh, oh... 500 miles by the Proclaimers?

I may be being too silly

CoffeeChocolateWine · 27/01/2014 22:56

We had Minnie Ripperton - Les Fleur

BiscuitMillionaire · 27/01/2014 22:57

Everybody needs somebody to love (or whatever it's called) from the Blues Brothers

MyNameIsKenAdams · 27/01/2014 22:57

I had "Youve Got The Love" by Florence and the Machine.

Also suggesting Ray Lamontagne, You Are the Best Thing

The theme tune from the original mr&mrs!

K999 · 27/01/2014 23:02

I Feel Good by James Brown??

LastOneDancing · 27/01/2014 23:06

We walked out to 'One day like this' by elbow.

It was perfect.

perplexedpirate · 27/01/2014 23:08

FFS, sanity! Now I have to get married again! Grin
We had Baby, I Love You by The Ramones.

EllaMenOhPea · 27/01/2014 23:10

We had David Bowie's "Heroes" in the end, although I quite fancied Morecambe and Wise's "Bring Me Sunshine" or Ken Dodd's "Happiness".

H wanted "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" and I did agree (he's a big Smiths fan), but he changed his mind when he thought about the Caligula blushing and kick in the eye bits of the lyrics.

Walked in to U2's "All I Want Is You".

JeanSeberg · 27/01/2014 23:15

Tammy Wynette D.I.V.O.R.C.E.

sanityawol · 27/01/2014 23:25

Good suggestions perplexed and littlebluedog.

I know that isn't the right song for leaving the ceremony to, but I have to share it.

There's some different ideas for me to give my hubby to be. I'll check back in the morning.

Thanks for all the suggestions so far!

Last one - I need to go to bed. If you want something cheesey that will raise a smile what about "My First, My Last, My Everything" by Barry White.
