SCORING YOUR WALK DOWN THE AISLE

So it's probably pretty clear by this point that we're very romantic and dramatic (and maybe even a little bit cheesy) around here at Wish Wonder Dream. Thus, this afternoon we decided to come up with a list of our all-time favorite gorgeous film scores (or "film score type songs") to play as you and your wedding party come down (and then back up) the aisle on your wedding day. In no particular order, here are our favorite songs for your processional and recessional. We definitely advise that you have a box of tissues handy and of course, if you have suggestions please send them in and we'll be happy to put them on our list.
