My sister is having a "Western Wedding" and I am trying to come up with some appropriate music. Is there an alternative to the traditional "here comes the bride" that we can play while she walks down the aisle?
Any ideas for a song to be played as they are walking away a couple?
First dance?
It is on a nice, cool November evening, about sunset, outside but still somewhat formal. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated because I don't listen to much country myself. THANKS!

I'll be honest, that's a tough one. I've worked many weddings and I have never heard of a bride who didn't want to walk to any of the traditional pomp. There are always the classical composers that would work for November. Vivaldi would always work as would Pachabel. As for country music, there are some songs that I would always enjoy at my wedding. Allison Krauss - When you say nothing at all
Miranda Lambert - Me and Charlie Talking
Shania Twain - Any Man Of Mine
Keith Urban - Somebody Like You
Diamond Rio - Beautiful Mess
Heartland - I loved her first
Jason Aldean - Amarillo Sky or Hicktown
George Strait - Check Yes Or No
Big & Rich - Lost In The Moment
The endless supply of Rascal Flatts and Lonestar
It just depends on how country she is. A true country wedding you'd be sitting on bails of hay and having those giant spools as tables. It would be in a giant barn and instead of catering there would be a BBQ on a giant grill. Plus the tractor pull at the end. But I doubt it's that country. That's just my cousin's ideal wedding.
Those songs are good, but when the bride walks down the aisle, it has to be upbeat and make the focus of the crowd go towards the bride.

I had a lot of country music in my wedding, and I even walked down the aisle to a Gary Allan song! Here's my list:
Gary Allan~ The One (this is the one I walked down the aisle)
Amazed~ Lonestar
Shania Twain~ You're Still The One
Dolly Parton and Ricky Van Shelton~ Rocking Chairs
Alan Jackson~ Blues Man
Big and Rich~ Lost In This Moment
Keith Urban~ Making Memories of Us
George Strait~ I Cross My Heart
Chuck Wicks~ Stealing Cinderella (great father/daughter song)

I love country music. I think if more people gave it a listen they would see that it is the best music. This is the music about life, there is a song for every situation anybody has ever been in. When you want to cry, turn on a sad country song, if your happy, an upbeat country song, or wanting revenge at that cheatin' bf, a good cheatin' song. Country all the way, baby.

The first dance could be River Waltz by Cowboy Junkies
In Spite of Ourselves by John Prine ( with Iris Dement ) could be a funny to walk as a couple.

a song for the first dance could be Lost In This Moment by Big &Rich. It is such a sweet song. Perfect for a wedding.
