Wedding Playlist!

Rachmaninoff - Variations on a Theme from Paganini - 18th Variation
This is seriously one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. My beloved teacher, before he died, used to exclaim that this was the greatest melody of the 20th century.

Shostakovich - Romance from the Gadfly

Bach-Gounod - Ave MariaHere is something stereotypical and pretty that everyone at the wedding will recognize.

Mozart - Symphony 41 in C major 'Jupiter' - Movement 2

Beethoven - Piano Concerto no. 5 - Movement 2

Beethoven - Piano Sonata no. 8 'Pathetique' - Movement 2

Chopin - Raindrop Prelude

Chopin - Nocturne in Eb MAjor Op 9 no. 2

Alexander Scriabin - Nocturne for the Left Hand Alone - Op 9 no. 2

Alexander Scriabin - Prelude in B major Op 16 no. 1

Claude Debussy - Claire de Lune

Debussy - Reverie

Robert Schumann - Traumerei

Franz Liszt - Consolation no. 3

J.S. Bach - Fugue in D major from the Well Tempered Clavier - Book I

J.S. Bach - Sinfonia to Cantata 29Consider using this as the closing music to the wedding?

J.S. Bach - Dona Nobis Pacem from the Mass in B MinorOne of the few pieces of music that can cause me to tear up. You could close with this instead. It's better music, but the Sinfonia is more festive.

Well, here you go! I hope you find this at the very least useful and, most hopefully, an enjoyable experience to sift through.

[Shlup]

Be sure that, in addition to the songs suggested thus far, you actually play something good too.

[Clo]

of Montreal, The Darkness, SoaD, Everclear and Velvet Underground? I want to go to Clo's wedding.

Ranztien is allowed to attend my wedding, and he can assist in the dance off. I hope he can BRING IT.

I remembered some more I want too:

• "I'll Believe in Anything" by Wolf Parade
• "Keep Sending Me Black Fireworks" by Of Montreal
• "First Day of My Life" by Bright Eyes (it might be too sappy for me, might need to play some SoaD before and after it)
• "Ask" by the Smiths
• And some LCD Soundsystem to encourage yet more dancing.

I appreciate the recommendations so far! I'll be happy to post a link to the list of what I actually compile (of which is not to be laughed at).

Also, Mazzy Star - Fade Into You, Death Cab - I'll Follow You Into The Dark and Bright Eyes - First Day of My Life are musts at my wedding. And mass amounts of The White Stripes, Alkaline Trio and Red Hot Chili Peppers songs.

You... you don't like Eric Clapton?

[Bunny]

Cool people usually don't.

[Meat Puppet]

Falco - Rock Me Amadeus

You'd better believe I will!

This also sounds like an amazing wedding.

[Madame Adequate]

The White Stripes

And I was starting to think you might be cool.

Here is something else for weddings. YouTube - Russian Red Army Choir - Song of the Volga Boatmen (1965) Maybe when you listen you will be cured of your horrible taste.

Then what's your excuse?

How dare you, sir. I will have the most badass wedding playlist and you won't be invited.

[Clo]

Now to be genuine, I seriously do recommend "Home" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros for your sister's wedding! It's romantic and fun, and I saw it played live and it was amazing! I associate it with good times.
