LOL. Hey... Now that I think about it that version would be great! LOL

It's sentimental but also celebratory, with a beautiful melody and great lyrics. "This Is The Moment" by the Moody Blues: This is the moment This is the day This is the moment When I know I'm on my way Every endeavor I have made ever Is coming into play Is here and now today This is the moment This is the time When the momentum and The moment are in rhyme Give me this moment My precious chance I'll gather up my past And make some sense at last This is the moment When all I've done All of the dreaming Scheming and screaming Becomes one This is the day Just see it shine When all I've lived for Becomes mine This is the moment This is the hour When I can open up Tomorrow like a flower And put my hand to Everything I planned to Fulfil my grand design See all my stars align This is the moment My final test Destiny beckoned I never reckoned Second best I won't look down I must not fall This is the moment The sweetest moment of them all This is the moment So damn all the odds This day or never I'll sit forever with the gods When I look back I will recall Moment for moment This was the moment The greatest moment of them all

I didn't want to spill anything, and I was just too nervous to eat much. I had the caterer make us a basket of leftovers. We had a fun picnic in our hotel room later. "What a Wonderful World" is a beautiful, slow, sentimental song. Louis Armstrong is very classy. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnRqYMTpXHc" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =vnRqYMTpXHc</a> Then of course there's "The Party's Over" <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vBcWQx8JK4" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =7vBcWQx8JK4</a>
Originally Posted By Stacers76 That's a good idea about the picnic in our room.....I haven't thought that far ahead...I've got the reception details mostly done, after that I'm not planning! Lil Mermaid..it does get easier....at least for me it did...but I was mostly done with everything a long time ago, I'm weird like that )
Originally Posted By Ursula I assigned my husband to be the music guy. I had too many other things to do and his passion is music, so it worked out well. I got Disney songs played on a harp during the ceremony and Disney CD's at the reception! WHOOO!
Originally Posted By wonderingalice "The Way You Look Tonight" - Maybe Rod Stewart's version... There are a lot of different ones out there.

Originally Posted By Lil Mermaid I have waited way to long to get some things done. I need recommendations for a hair and makeup stylists...any ideas? i'm walking down the aisle to all you need is love by the beatles performed by a live string quartet...i love it!

So what are you colors and theme Lil Mermaid?? Mine are Red, White and Silver and no real theme, just 2 linked hearts on EVERYTHING.
Originally Posted By Lil Mermaid We are just really personalizing everything so I have a lot of monogram stuff. Our colors are sage green, lite rose pink.

My dress is strapless so I have no idea what to do. do u knot?
