now, gettng away from this Aussie ticket debacle...
me and my girl are getting married this August, and we are keen to use some Stones songs in the wedding.
Ideas so far include :

Me waiting for her arrival in church : Say You Will - Mick

Leaving the Church - Happy - Bruce Springsteen (from Tracks)

Arrival at function - Mystifies Me - Ronald Wood

First song - Keys To Your Love - Stones

other song ideas :

Finn Brothers - Luckiest Man Alive
Brooks & Dunn-There Ain't Nothing About You
Keef - Happy
Keef - Nearne
ss of You
Sade - By Your Side

anyone got any ideas ?

Also for the tables, instead of telling peeps where to sit, I was thinking of letting people sit where they want, but on certain tables all named after Stones albums.
eg. Bridges to Babylon - Darcy, Troy, Sarah, Rob, Ian, Kylie
Exile on Main Street - Jan, Ben, Tony etc

and so on ..
is this tacky or will it be kinda cool ?

Verrrry tacky. But then again, it's your wedding dude, do whatever the f*** you and your girl want, that's the whole point!
Congrats mate.

drop Harlem Shuffle to get people moving (to the left) on the dancefloor

hahaha
like it

Let Me Go

"Might as well get juiced" or "Under My thumb"...
or even "dear doctor"

ha haa

Man, its mind-blowingly cool that you are going to have that much Stones at your wedding...your reception ought to be a blast. I'm jealous....I had to hold my own vile down while listening to Bette Midler and Linda Ronstadt at mine...I hate old hag music.

#......Go ahead....Bite the Big Apple....Don't mind the Maggots.....Uh Huh...#

August would be a good time to take a month long trip down the Amazon - solo

Marriage? Just remember MicksBrain's Mantra - "Richard Gere got tired of Cindy Crawford". Just repeat that until you get up, drive to a travel agent, and get that ticket for Brazil/Peru (Amazon trip). Best to just keep things at a GF level IMO.....See, 10 years from now you'll still have all your money (instead of half)...But it's up to you.....Guys ALWAYS do dumb things...

yer but ive been with her for 2o years now ...

gotta do the right thing b4 all the rellos drop off the planet

====Marriage? Just remember MicksBrain's Mantra - "Richard Gere got tired of Cindy Crawford".====

MB, you gotta find the right girl, man. One that will accept our otherwise strange fanatacisim with a 40-something year old British band. Those are hard to find, mind you.

#......Go ahead....Bite the Big Apple....Don't mind the Maggots.....Uh Huh...#

Ok, Deathgod, if it's been 20 years and she's still around that's a pretty good sign. After all, by the time we get into our 70's or 80's (who ever makes it to that) we're gonna need someone to change our adult diapers as we lay in an adjustable bed, next to the oxygen tank, drooling and watching our collection of Stones DVD boots on the plasma big screen over and over like some fading Hollywood star watching their old movie's. Now that's good thinking... we all need someone we can LEAN on so if you want to...... If it matters, congrads from me Deathgod.... Have a good time....

gut, well, I have a pretty good GF (and she is a Stones fan, even though Sheryl Crow and U2 are her favs) We were watching the '81 Hampton, Virginia Broadcast Show and she really liked it (but she loves "TATTOO YOU" so it makes sense). We've been together for years BUT, I still think marriage can be very risky...It's the right thing to do if you're gonna have kids but besides that it's up to the individual...I know too many people that have gotten Divorced, that's probably the problem....

====We were watching the '81 Hampton, Virginia Broadcast Show and she really liked it (but she loves "TATTOO YOU" so it makes sense). =======

Well, I can tell I'd like her already, if she's a fan of the favorite year of my life.

Unsolicited GF advice,take it or leave it: If you don't want to get married, for God's sake, don't move in together....Keep your freedom; otherwise shacking up is just another form of getting hitched. I have a friend who is just impossible to remain faithful to his wife...I told him not to give up his freedom but he got hooked on the cooking, cleaning,and sex...but no love at all.

ROCKMAN

Congrats Deathgod.

I have question to all married people or who knows:

on which hand do you wear your wedding rings?

My singer is going to get married soon and while getting the rings fitted he was asked that question by the juweller.
Left hand ringfinger is international - right hand german style, he says. WTF is this???

Left Hand, but I very rarely wear mine.


#......Go ahead....Bite the Big Apple....Don't mind the Maggots.....Uh Huh...#

Happy by Bruce Springsteen is an absolute classic. A beautiful choice.

Have a good one mate!

Wedding Tip- Don't do it.

Here they are: Time Waits for No One, Waiting on a Friend, The Pain of Love.

Use the Symphonic Version CD of the Stones. That may be a option for the reception.

Mick's Brain mentioned 20 years she has been around so you are older and wiser.

Also, if two people can travel together (Stones Tour's) for a period of time, then they are right for each other. I met a couple from Denmark several years ago and finally realized what they were up to. They went around the world and they did this to know each other. If I find out if they, in fact, did get married, I'll edit this post.

I've never been married and will probably go the Mistress Route or marry someone real young - there is a little bit of Bill Wyman in us all........FM

We had start me up for the introductions. We had blues and exile as our appetizer/dinner music. Also end the night with Memory Motel.

First dance Wild Horses, second She Was Hot

Here is a first dance choice for ya..............Short and Curlies.

DeathGod; however u handle the wedding, when it's over later than night, for chrissake remember the logo and

Married? Bette Midler and Linda Ronstadt? That's what you get for toying with my emotions!

In all seriousness...

DeathGod, I apologize if anyone else has said this, but don't forget All Down the Line and JUMP ON TOP OF ME and LOVIN' CUP! The latter two being some of my favorites, both great songs one with a fun, sexual context and the other being very loving and deep. Congratulations on your pending marital bliss if that's what makes you happy.

Ow yeah Deathgod just remembered that I've been to one wedding were they played Sweethearts Together and it really was the weeper of the evening....grown men were crying in each others arms....

At my niece Ursula's wedding I jummed up with the band and hammered out a fair version of Satisfaction ....did my best Jagger poses...crutch grabbing and all......stopped the show received a standing ovation....!!!

Rockman, do you got that performance on bootleg?
