Mine was not, but a friend used "Let's Stay Together" by Al Green and it was awesome.

Mine isnt uncommon or unique, its a pretty well known song... but i dont know anyone else personally that used it... there were 2 other people on the other thread that list it as theirs... and when i was planning my wedding on LIW i dont remember anyone else using that song....

it wasnt a song we just randomly picked, it actually was one of "our" songs...



Into The Mystic - Van Morrison

We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic

And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home
And when the fog horn blows I want to hear it
I don't have to fear it

And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And magnificently we will flow into the mystic

When that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home
And when that fog horn whistle blows I got to hear it
I don't have to fear it

And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will flow into the mystic
Come on girl...

Too late to stop now...




That was our wedding song!

Ours was blue October - calling you. Unless you are a fan of the band, you probably haven't heard it.

It totally fits us.



LOVE this song. LOVE this band.



Love Blue October!

Ours was Thank You by Led Zeppelin

ETA Lyrics
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
when mountains crumble to the sea, there would still be you and me.

Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.

Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
Our love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
Inspiration's what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.

And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
If the mountains should crumble to the sea, there would still be you and me.




this was mine too....love the words ..thought it was different...and my husband liked it too (that was the hard part)

Re: Spinoff to wedding songs... Who think they had a unique wedding song that you don't normally hear...

we are man and wfie by michelle featherstone


All the things you are to me
Darling you have set me free
I'll always give you what you need
And what you deserve
All the joy and all this love
I know that it is from above
And now together there's enough
To fill this world

'Cause you are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
And now we're man and wife

All the things you will do
You know I'm standing next to you
And darling I will see you through
The rest of our lives
With you beside me
I have won
I'm glad I've waited for so long
There is no doubt
That you are the one for me

You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life

And everytime
There will be things
Everything is going to be fine
Now you're in my life

So I give you heart and soul
It's yours to take wherever you go
And through the years
You'll always know
It's yours to keep
God has blessed this sacred vow
And angles high above look down
And see the two of us have found
The perfect love

You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
Yeah
You are the love of my life

Now we're man and wife
We're man and wife
Now we're man and wife
We're man and wife
We're man and wife

Calico Skies by Paul McCartney. We had never even heard of the song until like a week before our wedding! It was crunch time and we couldn't agree, but I found it during our search and we were both instantly sold! I was able to get "for the rest of my life..." engraved in my husband's ring as well.


It was written that I would love you
From the moment I opened my eyes
And the morning when I first saw you
Gave me life under calico skies.

I will hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life

Always looking for ways to love you
Never failing to fight at your side
While the angels of love protect us
From the innermost secrets we hide
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life

Long live all of us crazy soldiers
Who were born under calico skies
May we never be called to handle
All the weapons of war we despise

I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll love you for the rest of my...
For the rest of my life

Re: Spinoff to wedding songs... Who think they had a unique wedding song that you don't normally hear...

Ours was Everything by Lifehouse. I've never heard it on the radio, so I doubt a lot of people have heard it. Most people at our wedding hadn't heard it before.

Here's the lyrics, they give me chills just reading them:

Find me here, speak to me
I want to feel You, I need to hear You
You are the light that's leading me
To the place where I find peace again

You are the strength that keeps me walking
You are the hope that keeps me trusting
You are the light to my soul
You are my purpose, You're everything

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, and You give me rest
You hold me in Your hands, You won't let me fall
You steal my heart, and You take my breath away
Would You take me in, take me deeper now

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?
And how can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/l/lifehouse-lyrics/everything-lyrics.html]
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

'Cause You're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything, everything

You're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything, everything

And how can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?
How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

I think we did - Shameless by Garth Brooks. It was always "our" song, and fit perfectly as a wedding song. It's not even the original, Billy Joel wrote it, but we like the country version better.



One of my favorite songs of all time!!!

Ours was Everything by Lifehouse

It took us forever to agree on a song, and I'm so glad we picked something uncommon. The lyrics are perfect for us.





Find Me Here
Speak To Me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That's leading me
To the place where I find peace again.

You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.
You are the light to my soul.
You are my purpose...you're everything.

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Cause you're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything,everything
You're all I want your all I need
You're everything, everything.
You're all I want you're all I need.
You're everything, everything
You're all I want you're all I need, you're everything, everything.

And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

<background>How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

I've never heard of anyone using our song, so I think it is pretty unique... Hold You In My Arms by Ray LaMontagne. Our videographer used it in our wedding video too. I love it! Chat Icon



love this song and love ray. it was a toss up between that song and "you are the best thing". we chose "you are the best thing" Chat Icon

Fields of Gold, the Sting song, sung by Eva Cassidy.

I think that's pretty unique... I've never heard of anyone using the song when it was sung by Sting, let alone Eva Chat Icon



Ours was Fields of Gold but Sting's rendition. 1993 was the year I started dating my husband and the lyric "See the children run as the sun goes down" makes me reflect on one of the only happy childhood memories I have. I knew I wanted to build a family with him even then and wanted them to have the childhood I didn't get. So far, so good! Chat Icon
Our cruddy DJ announced the song as "Fields of Dreams" Chat Icon

I'm pretty sure no one has ever used our song as a wedding song unless you are a Mariah Carey fan like me Chat Icon

Our song was Whenever You Call by Mariah Carey and Brian McKnight

I think ours was pretty unique. It was: That's How Strong My Love Is by Otis Redding. Apparently, it was pretty sexy too because we had some people (incl. my mom Chat Icon) who yelled out "get a room" as we were dancing to it.

That's a great song, but I love me some Otis.
