Thread Name: Tune Req: Wedding Song Needed
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Wedding Song Needed
Oh my goodness...I checked back here today not even hoping that there would be MORE messages!!! I'm sitting here weeping both from the lovely lyrics and the kindness that you've all shown in helping me with this project.

Of course the fact that I've just returned from my piping instructor's home where he helped my fiance and I choose tunes for the processions at the wedding has also made me emotional :-) It looks like we'll use "Skye Boat Song" for my entrance and some combination of "Mairi's Wedding" and some slow aires for when the guests arrive - then something really jiggy for after everything is said and done. Then, we'll break out the champagne and whatever happens happens!!!!

Thank you again, I'm going to have a hard time choosing between the 3 tunes that have been uncovered for my Auntie to sing during the ceremony (Cap't Bob: my fiance really loves the replacement verse - in lieu of death!)

Thank you!!! Thank you!!!
