Music was a massive thing at our wedding. Both my husband and I love to sing and although some of our tastes in music differ, we can wholeheartedly agree on Motown and R&B. When it came to devising music lists for our wedding however, it was so difficult to pick favourites. My husband and I don't have a particular song which means something to us so we literally had the choice of anything we wanted (except anything that had religious connotations as we had a civil ceremony). I did originally want to walk down the aisle to Ave Maria but unfortunately due to that rule I couldn't. We had a lot of Vitamin String Quartet songs because they're amazing and also a lot of the soundtrack of Love Actually. I walked down the aisle to Eva Cassidy's Songbird and it still makes me cry listening to it as her voice is so beautiful. Also if you've ever seen the film... Karl.
I have no idea what it will be like for my brother and future sister-in-law and picking music. Their taste isn't a million miles off of what I currently listen to but they will have a completely different audience than we did. There has also been talks of a steel band for part of the wedding.
If you need a little inspiration or are simply curious about what I would listen to, here youtubes of two of my absolutely faves (one of which I am singing in my head right now):
And this is the song we ended the night on because "see they don't do this anymore":
