Non-religious music for the Ceremony!

[ActuallyIveGotDental]

I'm at a bit of a loss really for what music to use in a civil ceremony... anyone have any great suggestions?

Do you have a favourite film with a good soundtrack?

I was at one wedding where they walked up the aisle to the Monty Python theme tune which was wonderful

Star Trek theme tune or the like if you are fans of anything special

I was Born to Love You by Freddie Mercury (sheet music available for arrangements for various different instruments)

Anything with trumpets is good, in my view.

Are you looking for something pop/modern music, or more of a timeless wedding music kind of feel? Instrumental film soundtracks and classical music compilations might help you figure out what clicks.

We walked in to the instrumental of bittersweet symphony and out to Justin Timberlake can't stop the feeling.

It is hard to find non religious music for weddings.

If you want something classical-but-not then some of Michael Nyman's soundtracks might be good.

Soundtrack for pride and prejudice or sense and sensibility is good

Opera / classical - walk in
Elbow: one day like this - register
The Wannadies: You and Me Song - walk out

That's what we had

We had the dreamboats and petticoats album at our wedding

Walked in to George Michael's version of The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face and back to Mama Cass Getting Better Every Day.

Walked in to the the ambient version of cafe Del Mar - energy 52

Walked out to movin' on up by primal scream.

Entrance music
At Last
Mozart Clarinet Concerto 2nd movement
Wedding Processional from the Sound of Music

Exit music
All You Need Is Love
Handel Arrival of the Queen of Sheba

Some excellent suggestions! Thank you so much!

Check out vitamin string quartet.

I went to a wedding where the bride walked in to the love theme from Love Actually, which was really nice. Another bride had some medieval music.

Film music is always good. The theme from Braveheart always makes me feel a bit emotional!

From memory, we had:

walking in - Canon in D (Pashelbels canon)
Signing register- a modern song with just the instrumental version (cant recall which one now)
Walking out- I do, I do, I do by Abba

Anything that doesn't mention God!

We had -

Entrance - Bill Withers - Lovely Day
Signing register - Blur - You're So Great & Des'ree - Kissing You
Exit - Wham - I'm Your Man

My friend entered to the Jurassic park theme. Everyone sobbed!

Beware the overly emotional music! I was fine outside waiting to walk down the aisle until I hear our music - depends if you're the weepy sort.
