What did you walk down the aisle to?

I walked down to:  Forever by Ben Harper

I love this song and Ben Harper! If we didn't have such a traditional church wedding I just might have done this one!

Same here! 

Our first dance together, the dj screwed up and we somehow ended up with the Celine Dion theme song from Titanic. Niiiiiiiice.  (but funny 12+ years later)

Aw- I loved our first dance.. Ben Folds "The Luckiest" It's not a traditional first dance song, but it's a song that when I hear it- I tear up every time. All this talk of weddings has me breaking out my wedding album.

Most of my and boyfriend's grandparents are dead, and the ones left are very hard of hearing. I'm gonna save this idea. 

it's an awesome song!

We walked down the aisle to a medley of songs which I can't remember just now, but we walked back out to Stevie Wonder's "Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours)! 

Nice!

Thanks for this.  Never heard of the song, but listening to it now and liking it.   

Happy to share. I've seen them live a couple of times are they are just amazing.

I will be walking down to The Dambusters March (it's my favourite war film, which DF introduced me to) and we'll walk out together to Caledonia by Dougie Maclean. Both will be played by a string quartet. 

I want Caledonia as well for the first waltz.  We're having a bagpiper for the ceremony and as long as it's not "Scotland the Brave" I don't much care what he plays.

Our first dance will be 'Sunshine on Leith' by The Proclaimers. That will transition into Bon Jovi's 'Livin' on a Prayer' for everyone else to join us, and after that it's ceilidh time!

I walked down the aisle to Cat Power's cover of "Sea of Love" (and then two weeks later I was shocked to discover it was my cousin's first dance song!).

Our first dance was a fast-paced, freeform tango to Xploding Plastix "Treat Me Mean I Need The Reputation".

awww well DH picked out first song we danced too and it was of course "When a man loves a woman" by Percy Sledge

and we'll walk out together to Caledonia by Dougie Maclean.

I want Caledonia as well for the first waltz. 

One of my bands (rock) plays this- its a great song for everyone to sing along to, ala rock ballad style  - though I suppose they won't sing along to a string quartet version! 

I walked down the aisle to Cat Power's cover of "Sea of Love" (and then two weeks later I was shocked to discover it was my cousin's first dance song!).

We walked down the aisle to this, as well!

We played Cat Power's I Found a Reason and Neil Young's Harvest Moon during the registry signing and we walked out to Johnny Cash's Happiness is You.

I don't even have a boyfriend, but I want to walk down the aisle to this song by City and Colour: City and Colour - The Girl (Official Video).

The wedding party will walk to the slow part, and I'll walk to the faster part.

I walked down the aisle to "Move Now With Measured Sound" (Thomas Campion, 1567-1620) sung by a madrigal choir that one of my bridesmaids sings in.

To walk out, we discovered that the first few bars of the traditional Wedding March can be played to merge seamlessly into the Indiana Jones theme tune (I'm an archaeologist).  The organist was only too happy to oblige and there were waves of laughter as people caught on 

I've finally been able to read this whole thread!  Ya'll have very good ideas.  Its funny rbbarch, df and I decided to walk up the aisle to the Indiana Jones Theme a couple of weeks ago!

I'm late to the party here, but I figured this thread will continue to be read by soon-to-be-brides! So here's my 2 cents...

I "walked down the aisle" to Hoppipolla by Sigur Ros. Sigur Ros is my favorite band of all time. Hoppipolla seemed so fitting because of its ethereal beauty and because, in a weird way, the translated lyrics just seemed so perfect and summed up our LDR quite well. The song (and music video) fill me with insane amounts of joy and hearing it play while walking towards the love of my life was just...unreal.

I'm getting all choked up just thinking about it!

link to the song -

oh oh, and I almost forgot - I REALLY wanted to walk out to that horrrrrible song "Friday" by Rebecca Black because A. We were married on Friday and B. I thought it'd be hilarious. I think everyone involved was quite happy that I didn't get my wish on that one.
