Whatever you do, don’t play the rock version of my immortal, and yes, I’d say it’s less than appropriate considering what it’s about.

Select Lyrics from my immortal that you probably don't want to hear at your wedding:

"i'm so tired of being here
suppressed by all my childish fears
but if you have to leave
i wish that you would just leave
'cause your prescence still lingers here
and it won't leave me alone

you used to captivate me
by your resonating light
now i'm bound by the life you left behind
your face, it haunts
my once pleasant dreams
your voice, it's chased away
all the sanity in me

i've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
but though you're still with me
i've been alone all along"


Second, take Jay-Z off the play list. Rap is not appropriate for a wedding. It never goes over well, especially something that coarse.

Other than that, you’ve a good list.

Saxby-

I'm just glad to see you took "We've Got Tonight" off there. "99 Problems" might be inappropriate, but it is inappropriate in a funny way, esp. if it's at the bride's request. But when I saw your first song on your first list was basically about getting in one last @#!* from your ex before you both go your separate ways, I was thinking, "That's not so much a wedding song."

Of course, there is some debate as far as whether or not it's about an ex or just a one-night stand, but either way...

Most of your list is solid, though.

It's funny for about 20 seconds and then it's trashy.

A few I can think of off the top of my head:

Flowers in the Window: Travis
God Moves through you: Jason Mraz (might be more for the ceremony than the party)
Light up my room: Barenaked Ladies (I am the biggest BNL fan ever)

and "Favourite Adventure/Wedding Song" by K's Choice, which goes:
There you are.
Your beauty consoles me.
I've gone far
And I almost didn’t find you
And I almost lived without you.
There is nothing in this world I’d rather do
Than live in you.
Here we go,
Our favorite adventure.
You should know
I was never more complete
And I never thought I’d see
The meaning of my life wrapped in you
Next to me.
Oh oh…

If you ever fear
Someday we might lose this,
Come back here
To this moment that will last,
And time can go so fast,
When everything’s exactly where it’s at
It’s very best.
Oh oh…
