It's funny, a friend of mine and I were just talking about wedding songs this week!!


If, and WHEN I ever get married...(I gotta find a good man first!)

I KNOW I will have some of these songs played:

"You are So Beautiful"--Babyface
"After all Is Said And Done"--Marc Nelson & Beyonce Knowles (the song they played in the wedding in the movie 'The Best Man')
"I will always be there for you"--Anquette (that's my favorite ghettofabulous love song!)
"So Amazing"--Luther Vandross

Thank you Everyone! I am planning a wedding for myself in September 01', and this was right on time. Now I have to decide which ones I want, most of the choices are excellent. I have a question: When do you present the mothers with flowers?

OHHLALA!

Oh no girl!!! LOL!!!! Do you remember the video with them on that boat/ship? People used to request it on Video Music Box all the time. Woo! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Congratulations...ohhlala

I have seen this done right AFTER the bride and groom sign the license, light the unity candle, then they go over to each parent and present them (mothers) / greet them, then after that is the DECLARATION, etc. etc.

I better stop before I give out all my ideas...LOL

OTHER SONGS:
Back at One...Brian
By Your Side...Sade
Get Here (If You Can)...Oleta Adams (for all those long distance relationships that MADE IT!)

My votes:

Stevie Wonder's "Ribbon in the Sky". I love that song tremendously.

Luther Vandross' "If this World were Mine"

Soror AKA2D, you know I'm going to use some of these! My favorite wedding song is "My Love, Sweet Love" by Patti LaBelle.

So long as I wasn't alone!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

I have never really given this topic much thought, but "After All Is Said And Done" is definitely up there. I can't think of anymore right now, that would be must haves in my wedding. I don't think my subconscience will allow me to think about this! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

I am feeling you Soror Akatude. My favorite is My Love Sweet Love by Patti LaBell. I think I will probably sing Together With Jesus We Can Make It. I hope my "Good Thang" can sing too. It would be nice to sing a love ballad together. If he cannot sing well, we will just have to do our duet thang later on that night. Let me stop I am about to be naughty!

I love you guys!

------------------
You are the master of your own destiny!

DANG YA'LL, I FORGOT ABOUT THAT PATTI SONG...THAT WAS ON THE WAITING TO EXHALE SOUNDTRACK!

NOW WHO IS THAT GHETTO FAB PERSON, ANQUETTE?

OTHERS:
Spend My Life (with you)...Eric Benet and Tamia

We Must Be in Love...(I forgot those girl's name, but they went to Howard and Kellie (Laura) from FAMILY MATTERS was in the video...)

Stairway to Heaven...The O'jays

I think "We Must Be In Love" is by Pure Soul? I'm not really sure.

"Always and Forever" by HeatWAVE! What that is the Jamy Jam! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

'TILL I FOUND YOU by Vicki Winans is

DA BOMB

The songs I would choose for my wedding provided my family would not drive me insane and straight to Elvis Prsley's "Hunk of Burnin' Love" would be "moments in love" by The Art of Noise for the walk down to the alter and for our first dance would be "Endless Love" or "My First Love" However I do not know the artists' names.

I have to say mine would be..

ummm "I get around" --by Tupac I'm just joking y'all! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

I haven't really though about it but that Maxwell song "the proposal song" and you can't go wrong with "If this world was mine" by Luther.

I am getting married March 10th 2001. I will come down the aisle to "You and I" by Obrien. We will also be serenaded with "Open Up My Heart" by Yolonda Adams. We have not settled on the other songs (I guess that I better hurry up!!!), but the songs on our "possible list" are mostly "old school." We even hired an old school band for the reception.
