    I'm getting married in our backyard and we're having a friend play solo jazz guitar during the ceremony and cocktail hour. The cocktail hour should be relatively easy, but I'm looking for ideas for the ceremony -- in particular for the processional, when my fiancee will walk down the aisle. We're obviously after a song that has that "big enough for the moment" feel, the bride's big reveal...but we also like the low-key nature of solo jazz guitar.

    Any ideas?

    Norah Jones “Don’t Know Why”? Just kidding…congratulations. “And I love Her” Metheny style?
    ”Tenderly” “Body and Soul” “Moonlight in Vermont”

    We’ve Only Just Begun - it fits your description, is a beautiful tune with great changes, and is fun to play solo.

    Most of the GASB tunes are about love - new or lost. Probably not one of the lost love songs, but any of the others should work. It depends a lot on what the guitarist knows or has enough time to learn.
