I have enough friends who play traditional Irish music that I could have a live band or two for the reception. Maybe some other music too for certain dances.. The wedding Mass will be all gregorian chant! :cool:

I guess its really more up to my future wife's preference. I think in this arena its the man's job to defer to his beloved. :D:

I really don't like the "here comes the bride" song though.. I'm not dogmatic about it, but it would definitely be something that I would resist, but it wouldn't be worth actually quarelling over. If it would make my bride that happy it would probably become my preference.

I think that when I get married my mom will cry.

Is a good cry or a bad cry?

I"m sure my mom will cry. And I'll probably cry too.

As far as music ... I honestly haven't given it much thought. I want it to be classic, but not the "usuals."

I've given some thought to just having a small group of people do something a cappella -- I love the sound of the blend of human voices. Luckily, I know some good singers. :)

It's a "my kids are growing up too fast and this song only reminds me of that fact" cry....

I took my daughter shoe shopping and we had to head to the ladies section... <sigh>

It is a good thing to cry I think. I know that if I have kids I will cry. :) Like a good mom would do :)

Moms do a lot of private crying.

I dislike here comes the bride. It seems so secular. :annoyed:

Ah, but that is for AFTER mass! Something classical or celtic for me, violins, harps, that kind of stuff.

I'm going to tell you guys what songs I want at my celebration of vows as that will be my "wedding". These are more contemporary but I love the words to each.

"As the Deer" for an entrance
"As I Kneel Before You" for offertory
"Power of Your Love", "Here I am Lord" and "Only This I Want" at communion
and lastly
"Shout to the Lord" as a closing

I have no idea what songs I want played for my wedding ceremony...but I have some ideas for my wedding song at the reception :D:

Come What May
Set Me As A Seal
Book Of Love

Those are pretty much what my future husband has to choose from. ^_^
