What are some alternate wedding sons that can be played other than the traditional "Wedding March" song?

I am getting married in September and have yet to decide on the song I want played as I walk down the aisle. I don't want the traditional "Wedding March" song that is usually played at weddings. I am looking for a slow country song. Does any one know some nice country songs that you have heard played at weddings when the bride walks down the aisle?

Catholic weddings don't allow the traditional 'wedding march'...so I found out when we were meeting with our organist;) Anyway we are using 'Canon in D" by Pachelbel and also 'Trumpet Voluntary in D'- by Clarke, you could also try "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring"-By Bach. These all probably sound unfamiliar by name but when you hear a sample you will totally recognize them. Good Luck to you, I'm taking the plunge on the 14th wish me luck;)......sorry I just read your question where you wanted a country song...my fault for not reading further, anyway there are some suggestions if you don't find one you like.
Reply:I didn't want the wedding march either, so I had my pianist learn to play the beginning of Tesla's "Love Song." It was beautiful.
Reply:I came on this site tonight looking for the same help as you! I'm getting married in October... I can't decide on ANY music. I want a song that isn't so... "played at every wedding" during my service but I can't find the one. I'm leaning towards Endless Love.





I think I'm walking down to... Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (Bach) or Canon in D (Pachebel). For some country songs, I thought of.... Your Everything (Keith Urban) or.. I'll be (Reba-- thats another possibility for me) I cross my heart (George Strait)..... Another possibility, although not country.... Everytime I close my eyes by Babyface.

Reply:When you kiss me - Shania Twain. It's BEAUTIFUL. But there are lots!! What about the new one by Big and Rich "Lost in this Moment"...
Reply:I've always liked Pachelbel's "Canon"
Reply:hi there





if you dont want the usual wedding march (boo hiss!!), simple dont hire a organist. get one of your friends to play a cd you have made up at your wedding.





anyway back to your question, shania twains 'from this moment'
Reply:Pachelbel's Cannon is a popular wedding song, Trumpet Tune, and Trumpet Voluntary are other popular tunes for brides marching in. Who is doing the music for your wedding? They would have suggestions as well. As for a popular country song to walk in to, I am thinking that isn't the best of choices. I am a professional musician, have played at hundreds of weddings and have never had such a song played for a processional. I would come up with something more traditional as you walk in and have the country song for a meditation type thing. Good luck
Reply:Omg , you sound like me !! I hate the traditional stuff . I plan on walking down the aisle to an Avril Lavigne song called Innocence .. I say pick a song that has meaning to it . Something that makes you think of your hubby to be
Reply:I'm walking down the aisle with Endless love by mariah carey and luther vandross. Honey this is the new century you can play any of you favorite slow song.
Reply:My husband and I had an outdoor wedding this past fall and I walked down the aisle to an acoustic version of "You Look Wonderful Tonight" (Eric Clapton), my bridesmaids walked down the aisle to "Annie's Song" by John Denver. (No words for either song, just them music on a guitar.)





I think any song where you like the sentiment would be appropriate, especially if you just have someone play the tune and not sing. It's your wedding, just make it meaningful to you and your husband and that's all that matters!!!!
Reply:Shania Twain - You've got a way.
Reply:the song "Heaven"
