Because I’m a Nanny, That’s Why

October 31st, 2012 @ 12:50 pm by Mrs. Sword

The title of this blog post is an answer to a question. That question is, “WHY, Miss Sword, why have you watched (more than once) Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses?”

The answer is because I’m a nanny, that’s why. Littlest C LOVES this movie, and I have to admit it’s not that bad! Truthfully I enjoy kid movies. And while I’m not that into Barbie in general, if Barbie is going to pretend she is a princess and have 11 sisters, I’m GAME.

So, what if I told you I was going to include the intro music from Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses in my wedding processional? What if I told you Mr. Sword has approved this as well as Mom Sword? Would you believe it? Because it’s all true. I showed them this song a few months ago and was shocked that they both thought it worked for our wedding. Just goes to show ya, it never hurts to ask!

This song just spoke to me and I’m seriously considering having my sexy, kilt-wearing groomsmen and my gorgeous, long-dress-wearing bridesmaids walk in to this song. Isn’t it pretty but also kind of dark and romantic?

I also like it because it will be a nice contrast to the bagpipes that will mark Littlest C’s entrance followed by Dad Sword and me.

Are you having any unusual wedding processional music? What do you think of this song?

I definitely think this is so beautiful and goes with your theme so well! We haven’t decided what to use for our processional yet (we’re having a fairytale-themed wedding too) but among the options is “The Rainbow Connection” from the Muppets: we’re huge Muppet fans and it’s such a sweet song!

I really liked that movie. I’m a Mum to a 3 year old girl so I too have watched my fair share of barbie movies and that was definitely one of the better ones. That song is beautiful, it will really set the mood perfectly.

Love the music. We’re using music from the “How to Train Your Dragons” soundtrack. The girls and I are walking down to a song called forbidden friendship.

Loooooooove it! It’s so fun to pull inspiration from the little ones in our lives. I teach dance to little kiddos, and they’ve inspired more of our wedding day than my future hubby would care to admit, but it’s part of who I am, so he loves it. I’m glad you had the support of your man and mama!

Oh darn work blocking youtube :( I will listen to it another time! I think if a song speaks to you and your fiance there is no reason NOT to have it in the ceremony! Yay barbie hehe!
