Music for moments of your life

Me being anal about music, I can't help but already decide on songs that have to be played during epic moments of my life.

I know its weird but if I am to have a funeral for myself (but I don't want to), I actually have hymns that I would like to be played during my funeral:
Amazing Grace
Be Thou My Vision
In Christ Alone

And now adding to a new set of list, songs that I would want for my wedding march (assuming if I ever get married, my mom wants me to, I want to have kids, so no choice uh).

I always wanted Wagner's Bridal Chorus for the Bridal march since I really love the harmonies from the organ as well as the minor key parts of the piece.
But recently I discover this really good mash-up of Pachelbel's Canon in D with U2's With or Without You.


& I always believe its good to show those picture slideshow of the couple's life before the bride comes in. I mean, those moments are what led to the actual walking of the asle isn't it. Makes no sense to me to show pictures only midway through the wedding. The front part of this piece would make a good slideshow music as well, leading to the bride's arrival.

and lastly, instead of ending the whole ceremony (whereby the newly wed walks out and back in together again) with Mendelssohn's Wedding March, maybe can play Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring by Bach instead at a faster speed.


hahah. gosh I should be a wedding planner.
(don't steal my idea here please, to any girl out there who likes this idea and is getting married earlier than me. kidding)
