BlueWizard,
Can I come to your wedding? It's like my idea of heaven.

Sure. Just remember to wear a big puffy dress. And if you're a guy....wear a puffier dress.

Blue Wizard, am I invited b/c your wedding sounds like fun!

I'll start sending out the invitations today. Look for a card with a naked man on the front.

You're all going to look at me like I'm nuts, but I would love to sing the song "If It is True" at my wedding reception. IMHO it's the only worthwhile song from My Life With Albertine, and I absolutely adore the lyrics.

Can I come too, BlueWizard? It sounds like a blast!
Anyway, to the topic at hand: My pick would be "Not While I'm Around" from Sweeney Todd. I love that song...if I get married someone's singing it at the wedding, damn it!

My vote is for Inside Your Heart from Bat Boy. Nothin says Marital Bliss like a love song where one person asks the other to drink her blood.

Ahhhh love.
Yes that's me. No, it's not a Rent homage.

For my wedding, we are having the quote

"I've longed to discover something as true as this is"

from RENT on our wedding invitations.

I agree with "As long as your mine" but also, from Hairspray "Without love" "It takes two" and "You can't stop the beat" except you might want to ask about ppl singing with you for the Hairspray songs. And "It takes two" is sung from a guy's view but it'd still be a great song to sing.

This may sound corny, but what about "If Ever I Would Leave You" from Camelot?

Thanks all! Some of these are really great...while others are fun, but perhaps not quite appropriate for my brother's non-theatrical tastes and his traditional church wedding! I've found so many that would be fun or funny, but that I'd never actually be allowed to sing! Too bad. But really, thanks for the help...several of these I'm definately going to put on my list.

It wasn't originally from Thoroughly Modern Millie, but how about:

"I'm Falling in Love With Someone"

Also:

"As Long As Your Mine" - Wicked (sorry, people!!!)
"A Heart Full of Love" - Les Mis
"All I Ask of You" - Phantom of the Opera

"We Live on Borrowed Time" by David Friedman might work well. I don't think it was written for Broadway, but it was in Listen to My Heart, the off-broadway show based on Friedman's work.

robbiej - not in the actual ceremony, but at the reception with a couple of other invited performers...I'm looking forward to it.
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

A friend of mine had "Love Changes Everything" sung at her wedding back in 1992 (she and her fiance had seen it on B-Way). Don't think the singer hit the B-flat however!

"Sunrise, Sunset" from Fiddler is another I've heard at a couple of weddings.
