Alright, alright, let’s talk about them songs for the groom, you know, when he’s walkin’ down that aisle thingy. It’s a big deal, gotta make it sound good, not like some sad funeral march or somethin’. We ain’t buryin’ nobody, we’re gettin’ hitched! So, here’s the deal, some ideas for ya, from a plain ol’ head like mine.
First off, you gotta think about what kinda fella your groom is. Is he the quiet type, or does he like to make a big entrance, like a rooster crowin’ at dawn? If he’s the quiet type, somethin’ soft and sweet might work. Like that Ed Sheeran fella, his song “Perfect,” that’s a real nice one. Says it all, don’t it? Says he’s perfect for ya, and you’re perfect for him. Simple as that. No fuss, no muss.
But, if your groom is the kinda guy who likes to, you know, shake things up a bit, then you gotta go big or go home, I say. Like, them rock and roll songs, they get folks goin’. I heard tell of some bands, Guns N’ Roses and AC/DC, somethin’ like that. They got songs like “Welcome to the Jungle” and “Back in Black.” Loud and proud, that’s what they are. Gets the blood pumpin’, makes ya wanna dance, even if you got two left feet like me. Now, “You Shook Me All Night Long,” that one’s a bit… saucy, but hey, if that’s your style, go for it! Just don’t blame me if grandma gets a little red in the face.
Now, I ain’t no expert, mind you, but I know what I like. And I like a good song, somethin’ that tells a story. The song you pick, it’s gotta mean somethin’ to you two. It shouldn’t just be some noise in the background. It’s gotta be about your love, your journey, all that mushy stuff. You know, the stuff that makes your heart go pitter-patter, like a little squirrel runnin’ up a tree.
- Think about the feelin’ you want. Happy? Excited? Romantic? Pick a song that matches that feelin’.
- Don’t pick somethin’ too long. People get fidgety, you know? Keep it short and sweet.
- Listen to the words! Make sure it ain’t about breakin’ up or cheatin’ or nothin’ like that. You want a happy song for a happy day, right?
And listen here, it don’t gotta be fancy. It don’t gotta be some newfangled song nobody ever heard of. If your groom loves an oldie, play an oldie! If he loves country, play country! It’s his day too, you know? It’s about makin’ him feel good, makin’ him feel special. That’s the whole darn point.
I remember hearin’ a song at my niece’s weddin’. It was somethin’ about… sunshine and good times. Can’t rightly recall the name, but it made everyone smile. And that’s what you want, right? Smiles all around. Happy tears, maybe. But mostly smiles. It ain’t about showin’ off or bein’ fancy-pants. It’s about love, pure and simple, like a good cup of coffee on a cold mornin’.
So, there you have it. Some ideas, from a plain talkin’ gal. Go find that perfect song, the one that makes your groom’s heart sing. And when he walks down that aisle, everyone will know, that’s his song, that’s their song. And that’s all that matters.
Remember, it’s your wedding, your day, do it your way! Don’t let nobody tell you different. If you wanna play polka music, play polka music! If you wanna play the theme song from that there Star Wars movie, you go right ahead! It’s your love story, you get to write the soundtrack. Just make sure it’s a good one, somethin’ you’ll wanna listen to for years to come, somethin’ that brings back all them good feels from the day you said “I do.” And for goodness sake, make sure the sound system works! Nothin’ worse than a scratchy record or a speaker that keeps cuttin’ out. You want that music clear as a bell, loud enough for everyone to hear, but not so loud it blows the windows out.
That’s all I got to say about that. Now go on and plan that weddin’!
