So, when I get married (I know, how presumptuous) I decided I'm gonna walk down the isle to "If I Were a Carpenter" performed by Johnny and June. Because that is a song that just wins my heart every time I hear it.

What about you? What is your song of choice?

lately i've been thinking "Come Monday" by the most awesome jimmy buffett, but i'd like it to be instrumental.

i've never really thought about that part of the wedding. the whole time i was growing up, my dad and i would dance to "landslide" by fleetwood mac. i can't even hear the song without bawling like a little bitch. as my relationship with chris got more and more closer to marriage, dad and i would still talk about our father-daughter dance (usually when we were shitfaced and having those long drawn out conversations that i somehow remember even though i couldn't tell you what else was going on around me). now that chris and i aren't planning a wedding anymore... i'm really not sure what i'd like anything in my future wedding to be. -=\ but the one thing that will never change is my father-daugther dance. somedays i would look forward to that part more than actually getting married.

by the way, i think you'll be a beautiful bride someday, and i think your wedding will have a fabulous style to it--just like you -=)

Ah, yes. I should have known. Shannon and Jimmy Buffett are synonymous.

Fleetwood Mac!!!! Everyone should have a Fleetwood Mac song in their wedding, because they are amazing. But I don't have to explain that to you, do I?

And thanks.

you know, i never really thought about music for that particular part of the wedding. but i have a playlist in my head for the reception...

god only knows - beach boys
there is a light that never goes out - the smiths
transatlanticism - death cab
in your eyes - peter gabriel
wouldn't it be nice - beach boys
la la love you - the pixies
i will follow you into the dark - death cab
wild horses - the rolling stones
oh! - sleater-kinney
wonderwall - ryan adams version
do you realize? - flaming lips
faithfully - JOURNEY

i swear, this is not something i think about a lot. i swear.

Excellent song choices! I expected nothing less, of course.

I will follow you into the night, I don't have that song. I'm ashamed!!! If my computer had any memory left, I'd download it. Sigh. This god damn piece of crap is ruining my life!

And sure, Staci, I believe you. ;)

you don't have the new death cab? then i must burn it for you! i had issues with some of it at first, but now i mostly love it, especially the first half. unfortunately, we won't be seeing them this tour. i didn't even know the d.c. date had gone on sell by the time it sold out! they even added a second show, but it's on a monday night and that's just not happenin'.

okay, so the thought has crossed my mind... ; )
