So Shan needed my advice on which songs are best for the wedding march-in. Caleb already managed to form a very nice list of all the songs that could be played on loop in the background as the lounge music for the guests etc. :P Now for the *jang jang* songs that will introduce the happy couple!
We thought about using a couple of popular bollywood tunes that Praveen and Shan love, but that has the possibility of excluding some of the other guests like their colleagues who might not be the sort who watches bollywood movies; besides, Shan intended her dinner to be "posh" and "black-tie", so perhaps something like big band music or jazz?
Nat King Cole's L-O-V-E is always a possibility. I told Shan that if she likes, my a cappella group can even sing it Live for her as she walks in :) she seems to like the idea, and told me that she'll consider.
Alternatively, we could even get a couple of friends to form a mini string quartet to play a song. Emma one of my friends' is a professional pianist and Jocelyn can play the cello pretty well, I have the music score for John Schmidt's rearrangement of blending Taylor Swift's 'Love Story' and Coldplay's 'Viva la Vida". Shan was very excited at that possible song choice. So I guess these are the two shortlisted songs :)
Here's a version of the wonderful 'Love Story + Viva la vida' arrangement:
