Music is Key!

My groom (Dairick) and I both think that music is a very important element for our wedding. The music sets the mood and it can make or break the feel of the wedding.  

Of all the details that we've thought up and compromised on, music is the one thing that brings out the most disagreements! Our music preferences are so different and neither one of us is afraid to speak our opinions about what we like and don't like, and it's making it very difficult to come up with songs for some of the important parts of the wedding.

Our Music Preferences:
Dairick's favorite band: Alice in Chains 
My favorite band: Sum 41
Dairick also likes: I Wrestled a Bear Once, Mest, & Deftones.
I also like: Pink, Flyleaf, & Fergie/Black Eyed Peas

(Can you see where the difficulties come in?)

Dairick would like some of his music played at the wedding (which I totally want! but I just don't think I Wrestled a Bear Once is wedding appropriate!) So I promised that towards the end of the reception (when most of the older crown has gone home) he can play one "mosh pit" type song! But this doesn't mean that some of his music wont be played at our wedding!

We have decided to have 2 "our songs" played during our reception as one of our many compromises. The first song will be our first dance song and my "our song" (Sum 41 With Me) and the second song will be our bridal party dance song and Dairick's "our song" (Mest Electric guitar Electric girl). The rest of the important songs for the ceremony/reception still are up in the air... Hopefully our readers can help with this!

We kind of want to stray away from the "played out" songs...

Prelude Music: Played while guests arrive for the ceremony.
Something acoustic would work well here I think... just not sure what music in particular.
Processional Music:  Played during the time the family and wedding party walk down the aisle.
This is also the time when the bride walks down the aisle but I have a song that I want to walk down the aisle to that would be best played start to finish when I start to walk down the aisle. (Myley Cyrus When I look at You). So I need to figure out what the bridal party and mom's will walk down the aisle to.
Interlude Music: Songs played during the ceremony.
We would like something as a tribute to all of our grandparents who have passed away played during the ceremony (Thought about playing something like Alice in Chains Heaven Besides You for this portion, but not 100% sure about it) and we'll probably have some kind of music played during the Unity Candle portion of the ceremony, but have no idea of what to play...
Recessional Song: Music played as the new husband and wife walk up the aisle together.
No idea of what to play here, we both know that we don't want anything that is a typical song for this portion of the ceremony.
Walk into the Reception Song: Bridal party and the bride/groom are announced at the reception.
I want a fun song that says "get this party started" but not too "pop music-ish" Something with a good beat and good lyrics, somthing that is going to make people go wild when we walk into the reception for the first time as Mr. and Mrs. D Best! My thought was to use Black Eyed Peas Tonights Going to Be a Good Night but I don't know if it's already played out or not... What do you think?
Father Daughter Dance Song: (Do I really need an explanation?)
Here's a twist for ya! I have 2 wonderful dad's (My biological dad and my step dad) who mean the world to me, and I feel like it wouldn't be fair for one or the other to walk me down the aisle so I want both of them to give me away! In this case I feel as though I need two father daughter dances as a tribute to each of them! The other twist... since Dairick and I have two daughters I thought I could share my father daughter dances with Dairick and the girls! Dairick would dance with our oldest daughter (Kyley) while I dance with my Dad and Dairick will dance with our youngest daughter (Natally) while I dance with my Step Dad. So I need two father daughter dance songs! Kind of unconventional I know but it's our wedding damn it! ;)
Cutting the Cake Song:
Maybe something like Adam Sandler I want to grow old with you but I'll take other suggestions! Again, nothing typical!
Garter Take off/ Toss Song:
Dairick keeps saying he wants something like Def Leppard Pour Some Sugar On Me, or My Darkest Days Porn Star Dancing, but it's not his personality... so I'm sure some more suggestions would help him with his decision!
Last Dance Song:
I'm not really worried about this song... I'm sure the DJ will come up with something good! I'm pretty sure anyone who's left to hear the last song will either be too wasted to care or so tired that they're almost sleeping in a chair somewhere! But if you have any suggestions I'll take them!
