What’s with this ridiculous June weather? its supposed to be sunny. people are having outdoor weddings but its raining and raining. it’s June, people! freakin ridiculous! Fridiculous! />

According to this blog wedding music in Somaliland has been banned by the Jihadists. We at FindWeddingSongs think that is ridiculous. In fact, we find it downright Fridiculous.

I wonder what a deaf couple chooses for its wedding music? Or if they have wedding music at all. It stands to reason that just like Stevie Wonder who has advisers to tell him what he should be wearing, a deaf couple would have someone suggest wedding songs for them. But, is it possible that since deaf people can feel the pulsations of percussion and bass, they might pick songs based on that? I once met a deaf guy who loved and I mean LOVED death metal. He was deaf alright. Read lips and all! I think one of his favorite bands was Cannibal Corpse. I wonder how heavy his processional music might get????

So, I’ve been reading a lot about Eminem in the news lately. He’s got a new hit on the charts. He’s been pretty succesful, maybe he wants to settle down, start a family. So, my question is: what if Eminem got married? What music would be playing at his ceremony? What about during the reception? Would there be any gun play at the wedding?

So NewsDay has a feature about so-called environmentally friendly weddings.  The writer, Linday Daily, talks about how she is going to use a string quartet for her wedding ceremony, because “live bands us a lot of electricity”.  Ha ha, that is the best excuse for using a DJ (instead of cheesy wedding band) I have ever heard. It’s kind of neat that people can make up environmental excuses for almost any choice nowadays.

So, the wedding website theknot.com has a list of the top 10 wedding songs for 2009. 

http://wedding.theknot.com/wedding-planning/wedding-music-ideas/articles/top-10-wedding-songs-for-2009.aspx

The article is an interesting read but I would like to know what makes these songs the “top” 10.   The article does not discuss how this list was compiled - did the author just pull these songs out of the air? 

We here at findweddingsongs believe that articles like this are useful guides for planning a wedding, but it does encourage originality.   Please do get ideas from websites like TheKnot, but please don’t follow the herd mentality. 

We hope that you have a memorable and original wedding.

The Wedding Advisor

Today, the Wedding Advisor continues our travels through beautiful Italy.  Being here sure gives me lots of ideas about how romantic a wedding can be.  Here, it is quite common to see bridal parties parading down the streets.  Another common sight is to see a groom serendading the bride.  For more Italian wedding customs, read the excellent article at  http://blog.chateauandvillaweddings.com/italy/wedding-customs-and-traditions-of-italy

Speaking of serenading, what song would you like to hear if you were being serenaded?
