Ok, so my mom helpfully volunteered to make a wedding vid for a friend’s daughter who's getting married. She did one for my sister and spent months making it. The current deadline is in 2 weeks. And she hasn't started. She's also decided that I'm going to make it, and she'll tell me what to do. *rolls eyes*

I think I'm going to have to kill her. She does all these power points for schools and they involve animated gifs and sound effects, and she makes these wedding videos much the same. Needless to say we're having artistic differences, and it's making me cranky. :(

She's keeps coming up with songs that she'd like to use that fit 10 second clips of pictures, and while those clips look ok, they're going to be horrible when put together.

I've kind of convinced her that instead we should just have 3 songs, one for each of their childhoods and one for them together. Also, I'd like to move away from lyric based songs and use maybe just some instrumentals. So here's where you guys come in.

Does anyone have some nice soft (romantic-ish) instrumental songs that they could upload for me? There'd be much praise and loving for anyone who can help.

If you want to see some examples this is a great site.

I have a cd like that. Actually, it's two. I'm gonna listen to them now and find the songs that might be good and upload them for you.

I think using instrumental songs is a good idea.

I so know what you're talking about. Sometimes it's easier and faster to work alone.

My songs are all too classical and quite boring. I'm trying to thinking about if I have any other instrumental songs. I guess I have, but the question is where...

I've found instrumental versions of The Police songs.
