I'm getting married this fall but we don't want to use the normal wedding music in the ceremony. So we are thinking of alternatives to the cheese. I'm thinking some nice mellow jazz instrumental music would be cool. Any ideas from the collective?

Instead of "Here Comes The Bride," use the Imperial March from Star Wars:

Edit -- it won't let you click on the link to play -- cut-n-paste into a browser window to play it.

The woman said no. But she did fall out of her chair and spit beer through her nose when I suggested it :yourock:

A couple of nice and quiet "early sunday morning" guitar discs for the background.
Accoustic Alchemy - Red Dust And Spanish Lace or Back On The Case
Peter White - Excusez-Moi & Reveillez-Vous, but Glow is also good.

More synthy sound, but still quiet:
Ray Lynch - Deep Breakfast. I've gotten multiple queries of "who is that? I want my own copy" for his Celestial Soda Pop.



Or, go with the Bagpipes.
Sounds designed to induce terror.
That'll put y'all in the right frame of mind. ;-)
