Hey all. I'm getting married this fall (two months tomorrow. Eeeeep!!!)
Anyways, we decided to each put a lyric/poem in our wedding program. I'm wondering if anyone had any suggestions for suiting lyrics. Preferably Hip but I'm open to just about anything.
Not Hip....but some fitting pre-wedding lyrics......
Some Iron maiden.....
"Run to the hills.....run for your life!!!!!"
We used a line from a Sarah Harmer song on the favours for our guests, from "Open Window"
"... witnesses appear and recognize how sacred love can be when stated, shared, and shown for all to see ..."
Open Window was our first dance. The last song of the evening was Blow at High Dough.
That was already four years ago. Geez.

I'm pretty sure that there are a few old threads on this topic. I know that there were a few pretty stelar suggesstions. :thumb:

this was my wedding song in 1993
I guess the time was right for us to say
we'd take our time and live our lives together day by
day
We'll make a wish and send it on a prayer
we know our dreams can all come true with the love
that we share'
with you i never wonder - will you be there for me
with you i never wonder- you're the right one for me
I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through
i finally found the love of a lifetime
forever in my heart, i finally found the love of a lifetime
with every kiss our love is like brand- new
and every star up in the sky was made for me and you
strill we both know that the road is long
(but) we know that we will be together because our love is
strong
firehouse -love of a lifetime
My best buddy read the opening lines to Bryan Adams's "Everything I Do" to his wife at the opening of their wedding. Not exactly my first choice *Bryan Adams gag gag gag* but it was very well done.
The Hip have some beautiful lyrics that could certainly express the emotions of a bride and groom one their wedding day. Maybe instead of one verse, you could scatter specific lines throughout the wedding program. Here are my Top 10 Wedding appropriate Hip lyrics:
10. Occurring to each other under the setup of the stars, we imagine us here and here we are
9. It's warm and it's safe here and almost heartening. Here in a time and place not lost in our imagination.
8. You lured me with you diamond flower, you lured me with talk of still more talk, you lured me with caramelizing power, you lured me a lot.
7. I love you even when, I don't even know when I'm doing it.
6. I am you, you are always in view. I am my will, you are in everything I do.
5. When I'm with you, there's nowhere else.
4. You kissed my fingers and made me love you.
3. I want to be your stars of Algonquin.
2. It's been a long time coming, it's well worth the wait.
1. Maybe we're born lost, born to persevere but honey I'd walk into your painting until I reappeared; as a speck of comet-tail dust, a blue-green northern light, flickering just in your eye"s deepest ravines.
All the best with your upcoming wedding.
I thought for sure someone would have suggested Let's Stay Engaged!
