Wedding Processional music vote and questions too.

[Gypsy]

NEVERMIND. THE GROOM THINKS IT SOUNDS LIKE A FUNERAL PROCESSION. That's what I get for not checking with him before posting. *sigh*


I've been searching for Processional music, and thanks to DOODLE, I may have found a song. Infromation is below... but first a question.

How does the processional (non-religious outdoors ceremony) work? Do I have one song for the parents? Then another for the MOH, then another for the bride???

How many songs do I need???

Song I'm considering:

May it Be-- The Vitamin String Quartet's cover of the Enya song from Lord of the Rings.

The Lyrics of the song seem okay, except for the darkness lines (this version lyrics doesn't have them, but I didn't want death, destruction or mayhem lyrics).

You can hear the preview on Amazon.

May It Be lyrics


May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh, how far you are from home


Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now


May it be shadows call
Will fly away
May it be your journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun


Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now


A promise lives within you now

You could get a funeral sign-in book and just go with the theme!

I hired a harpist to play at my outdoor ceremony. I''m only having one song for the parents and the MOH and a song for me due to the aisle not being very long. You can have one song for each person if you want to, can''t go wrong either way.
