Evie and Micah (aren’t they Vermont? cute?) have invited me to play guitar at their upcoming wedding.
They are expecting me to play a nice quiet Pachabel’s Cannon. But I think it’d be much cooler to bust out Led Zepplin’s “whole lotta love” (MP3) during the procession. Not only is the song fitting, but I think it would make the whole wedding more memorable.
Then, after the vows are exchanged, I whip out Barry White’s “Can’t get enough of your love” (MP3) for the recessional. Just close your eyes for a second and picture the audience congregation swaying to the sweet musical rhythms of B.White. Oh man. That’d be great.
Best of luck to Micah and Evie!
(interesting fact: The website that reached its peak in 2001, www.emode.com, put Evie and I at a 94% compatability after we took the relationship quiz. For this reason, we consider each other soulmates. Should that day arise when Evie gets frustrated with Micah, I will be there waiting.)
Have you seen Love, Actually? You should do like that wedding and play the beatles. That would be hot.
a co-worker was telling me about a wedding he was at last weekend that played
signed sealed delivered for the recessional.
I think that if you busted out “long way to the top” it would be pretty fitting, you know, to
honor Evie and her efforts to put up with Micah’s crap for 5 years to get that rock.
Then, before they exchange vows, yell out “for those of you about to wed, I salute you”.
It would be great!
I think that most anything will be fine as long as its not Mock-ing-bird but I second Tim’s suggestions. All of them.
While I think all of these ideas are brilliant, I’m not sure Micah’s grandmother cound handle the shock . Barry White is intriguing, though:)
when i first started this entry, i was reading quite hastily, and i thought you said that
you were invited to play “air” guitar at the wedding. yeah, i realized that the word
“air” was not there shortly afterwards, but i think it’s an awesome idea nonetheless.
