Re: What tune to play for wedding (?)

I'd do "My One And Only Love"
I've got a chart on my site for FREE if you need one.

Re: What tune to play for wedding (?)

A medley of "Night and day", "What a wonderful world" and "Lullaby"? ("Wiegenlied", Brahms)

Just be careful with the "Lullaby". You must know the couple very well. (They could suspect you for giving them a hint)

Re: What tune to play for wedding (?)

I just heard something on the radio today that might work for you,
"What I did for Love" from the musical "A Chorus Line" It has a nice melody.

Re: What tune to play for wedding (?)

A couple more wedding standards:

"One Hand, One Heart" (Bernstein)
Bach's "Arioso"
"Ave Maria" (Schubert)2
"Wind Beneath My Wings" (Midler)

I also like the "aria" from Bachianas Brasileiras #5 (Villa-lobos).
Have you considered having the organist/pianist (or even a guitarist) accompany you? It makes a big difference.

Cheers,
Chas

Re: What tune to play for wedding (?)

How about like "The Lord's Prayer". I'm almost certain you could drag that out for about 3-4 minutes if you take it slow enough.

Re: What tune to play for wedding (?)

The wedding was yesterday, and I ended up playing "What A Wonderful World". It worked just fine. I had a couple of back-ups as well ("Smoke Gets In Your Eyes" and "All I Want Is You" by U2. Didn't need 2 and 3 though.
Thanks for the tips.
Cheers
