ROR Future & Past Brides....What song did you walk down the ailse to?

[AlmostMrsForbes]

I do - as far as I know, they're the only ones in the area. They are a bit pricey - $1,000 (four musicians) for one hour, but I've always wanted classical music at my wedding, and think they will be beautiful on the beach.

 

I actually was referred to them by my wedding photog, Brian Nejedly.

 

PM me if you want the name/number of the cellist (who will put together the group for you).

Are you having a beach reception? How are you arranging your first dance for the beach?

Are you doing your first dance directly following your ceremony, or are you going to go to dinner and then go back to the beach to do your first dance?

I walked down to somewhere over the rainbow by the really long named Hawaiian dude. We used the CD player. It was perfect. I also had other music play at different parts. Sounded great!

Ha ha, Calia, "Reallly long named Hawaiian dude"!! TOO CUTE!! I know who you're talking about, that's a beautiful song.

 

I had the Steel Drum band and chose the Wedding March! It was awesome!

Well since my ceremony is at 11am, we are going to do 1st dance, bouquet toss and garter toss at the beach gazebo right after the ceremony. Well actually we will do group pics, then do all that stuff, then have lunch reception at Mammee Bay. Since we are paying for them by the hour i want to fully enjoy the hour!!

Bridal Party - "somewhere over the rainbow" tropical version Israele ....

Me & Dad - "Answer" Sara McLaughlin

Walk out - "This is us" (I forgot who sings it) It's cute & upbeat

 

I also had a CD of songs that played for seating & after the ceremony for pictures & rum punch.

 

It was great!!

It all worked out but I'm just glad Chandlyn is realizing that some people want to have their reception right away not wait hours.

Who wants to wait 6 hours for the reception That's crazy. I didn't want to do that b/c I felt like I would be taking over my guests entire day. This way they can still spend thier afternoon doing whatever they please, and if they want to come back and join us that night at the disco to party they can. I'm glad you were able to work something out though. I wish we had in our budget to take everyone to a local place, that would be so cool!
