Hello all. Well, I'm filling out our contract for our videographer and in the back there's an "Editing Worksheet" which is due 2 weeks before the wedding. I know I have awhile but I know it's going to take me forever to pick the perfect songs. I need a song for:

- Pre-Ceremony Montage (Footage from an hour before the ceremony edited to music.)
- Ceremony (Uncut Ceremony/Ceremony edited to time - long parts shortened.)
- Post-Ceremony Montage (Includes footage of post ceremony activites set to music.)
- Reception (Section is comprised of the live elements of the reception including any testimonials.)
- Special Dances (First dance, Father/Bride dance, Mother/Groom dance)
- Dance Montage (Pick a fast and a slow song. Only one will be used. This montage compresses the miscellaneous dancing into one song.)
- Recap Montage (Chronological Summary of the day set to music.)
- Picture Montage (Pictures set to music.)

I'm horrible with picking songs. I need your help. I'm begging you! :laughing: To the ladies that already got married, what songs did you pick?
 
I bet if you ask the videographer, he could probably suggest a few, or tell you what other brides are using. Have him give you a couple of choices to narrow it down!

Are you using STVS? He has some sneak peaks to music I * think*
 
These were my songs I provided to my videographer.

1. Remember the Magic -(beggining Photo Montage)
2. A Kiss to Build a Dream On- (Pre Ceremony)
3. Mach the Knife (cocktail Hour)
4. Bless this Broken Road (Slow Song)
5. At Last (Dessert party ending)
6. In the Mood (Fast Song)
7. Hey Ya! (Fast Dancing)
8. Mickey (Fast- Dancing with Mickey and Minnie)
9. The Twist (Fast Song)
10. Jump, Jive and Wail (Fast Song-dancing)
11. Beyond the Sea
12. Better Together
13. L.O.V.E. ( getting ready)
14. When you Wish Upon A Star by Louis Armstrong ( wedding Montage Video)
15. Just in TIme (Bride/Groom 1st Dance)
16. The Way you Look Tonight (Father/Daughter Dance)
17. What a Wonderful World (Mother/Son Dance)
 

I just turned in the following:

Opening Montage:

"When You Wish Upon a Star" by Jim Brickman from "The Disney Songbook"
"L-O-V-E" by Nat King Cole
"Little Wonder" by Rob Thomas from "Meet the Robinsons" soundtrack

Pre-Ceremony Montage:
"Chapel of Love" by the Dixie Cups

Pre-Reception Montage:
"A Wink and A Smile" by Marc Shaiman from "The Bucket List" soundtrack
"Into the Sunset" and "Dan Higgins" by Randy Newman from "The Leatherheads" soundtrack

(our wedding had a turn-of-the-century theme, so we wanted some of that era type music)

Welcome Dinner Montage:
"Bella Notte" by Jack Jezzro from the "Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings" CD

Freebie song (for them to fill in if they need it)

"Make Someone Happy" by Jimmy Durante from "Sleepless in Seattle" soundtrack

Other goodies I considered

"La Vie en Rose" by Marc Shaiman from "The Bucket List" Soundtrack
"A Kiss to Build a Dream On" by Louis Armstrong
"At Last" by Etta James
"I'm On My Way" from the "Shrek" soundtrack (more fast-paced)
"Beautiful" by Jim Brickman and Wayne Brady from "The Disney Songbook"

I had asked a similar question on this board about a month or more ago. Here's the link so you can see others' responses.
