Like many brides these days, I have come to realize that we do not need to use the traditional ceremonial tunes that we have all become accustomed to. Yes, Canon in D is quite lovely, and the Wedding March is a great prelude to the bride walking down the aisle, but in my opinion it has been overdone and quite frankly I am over it.
After a few discussions with Mr. Locket, we have decided to kick tradition to the curb and join the masses of new; we plan to change things up with songs we like and songs that will hold a special meaning to us and our wedding. First up, we thought of the guys and gals.
Wedding Party Score:
I really loved the idea of doing something fun and upbeat for our wedding party and thought that this version of the Beatles’ “Come Together” would be perfect.

For the last week or two, Mr. Jasmine and I have been wrestling over what song to choose for our grand entrance into the reception. Now maybe we’ve inflated the importance of the song in our minds, but we can’t help but feel that the song we choose sets the tone for the evening and gets everyone in a spirited mood. So we humbly ask the Hive to help us choose our song!
Contender 1:
Michael Jackson’s “The Way You Make Me Feel”
Sorry YouTube wouldn’t let me embed the original video with the super hot girl that MJ is chasing. Anyway, Mr. Jasmine and I are both huge fans of 80’s MJ and this song makes me feel uber-sassy.

The Wind by Cat Stevens - The bride’s processional
At last, my dad and I have decided on two songs for the father/daughter dance. We’re not sure which one to choose, as both are beautiful classics.
My Girl by The Temptations
Stand By Me by Ben E. King
I love my dad very much, and have always been his special girl. We hang out on the weekends and see each other a few times a week. I think that’s why I have such a hard time choosing a song. The good things about these songs are the length. Not too long at all!
