Music Monday – Wedding Edition
Inspired by #musicmonday (or #MM) on twitter I thought it would be cool to bring that over to TRB. I’ve come across some really great music thanks to Music Monday. Old songs that I completely forgot about, or new ones that I probably would have never downloaded but ended up loving. For our wedding, the hubs and I put together some of our favorite music and created a CD favor for guests. Every time I look back at the CD, there are always songs that I wish I had included. Hopefully this monthly miniseries will provide some inspiration for your reception, ceremony, or CD if you’re doing one. There’s a lot of music that at first listen may not seem like typical “wedding music” but lyrically, couldn’t be more fitting. I always think back to that funky couple that walked danced down the aisle to Chris Brown’s “Forever”. If you missed it, you clearly don’t spend enough time on the internet, but you can check it out here
This week I’m starting out with Rascal Flatts – “Bless the Broken Road”. I absolutely LOVE this song. Don’t know when/where I first heard it, but never knew who sang it. Found out thanks to #MM that it was Rascal Flatts so I downloaded their greatest hits – - love all their music!
What are some of your favorite “wedding” songs? Traditional or not. Share.

“Bless The Broken Road” by Rascal Flatts
I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn’t see how every sign pointed straight to you[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to youI think about the years I spent just passing through
I’d like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You’ve been there you understand
It’s all part of a grander plan that is coming true[Chorus]
Now I’m just rolling home
Into my lover’s arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to youThat God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.
