Hello and thank you to everyone whose responded to my previous posts for being so welcoming. My friend is getting married next year and his fiancee asked me to play a song for her while she is walking down the aisle. She doesn't know what she wants me to play but she did say she doesn't want a traditional wedding song any suggestions?

Thanks everyone

Hmm. I'll have to think about it. I wouldnt play dmb though, if it were me. Trois Gymnopedie by Erik Satie is a great classical piece for a wedding, but if she wants a top 40 song, this isnt it.

yeah I wasnt' really planning on dmb but just looking for some colorful suggestions from you guys.....it really depends on what she wants but if I have some suggestions maybe I could help her make up her mind

Fields of Gold. ther is a lady that does a great version of this and it is absolutely beautiful. my roomate has the tab for it and the solo for it is kick ass. ill let you know who it is and where the tab is when my roomie comes in, you should check it out, it's a gorgeous instrumental song too if you don't want to sing.

are you gonna sing or just play? if just play then do some cool musical piece but if you are gonna sing as well, find out if they have a song or one that they both really like.

Good call Apps I think that would fit perfectly at a wedding. I just so happen to have a link here that has an in depth article on how to play it solo. You'll need a capo and a good grasp on classical playing.
