Let the festivities begin!
My sister, Bean, is getting married! After dating her boyfriend, Mike, for about a year, he decided to make her an honest woman. (whatever that means.)
Wedding dates are tentatively scheduled for this fall, and the planning is underway. I can only imagine how excited she is, and I am very happy for her.
She has asked me to sing with my sisters during the ceremony, the same song that they sang for me at my wedding. I have also been requested to sing a **gulp** solo. I may need some help picking out the song... (hint hint).
More to come.
The best part is that I wasn't the last to know. In fact, I may have been one of the first to know. Amazing.

Maybe you could do Thank God Im A Country Boy by John Denver.
Hmm... no.
Actually it is going to be an "irish wedding" so if anyone knows any irish wedding songs, let me know.
Hmmm.... Irish songs.
I think there's one that goes something like "Turaluralura...." yada, yada, yada. Tell your sis congrats! Weddings are so much fun!
Ok Irish you want? How about the great band Tonic Song number 11 on Head on Straight - Irish. Great song, performed live is better if you want!
Danny Boy is a funeral song, Turaluralura is a lullaby, and that Tonic song is a fight song. You will have to do better than that.
Wow! What great news! Tell Bean congratulations for me. I'll meditate on Irish weddin' songs.
Thanks for all of the congrats!!! Mike and I are so thrilled and excited! I think I need to look into Sheila's suggestion of the Rutter song - Celtic Blessing. That sounds like a good one! Here is what I was able to find in my search...
The Irish Wedding Song
Their they stand hand in hand, and exchange wedding bands.
Today is the day of all their dreams and plans.
And all of their loved ones are here to say, God bless this couple who marry today.
In good times in bad times, in sickness and health.
May they know that riches are not needed for wealth.
Have them face problems they'll meet on their way.
God bless this couple who marry today.
May they find peace of mind, comes to all who are kind.
May the rough times ahead, become triumphs in time.
May their children be happy each day.
God bless this family who started today.
In good times and bad times, in sickness and health.
May they know that riches are not needed for wealth.
Have them face problems they'll meet on their way.
God bless this couple who marry today.
As they go, may they know every love that will show.
And as life gets shorter, may their feelings grow.
Wherever they travel, wherever they stay.
God bless this couple who marry today.
In good times and bad times, in sickness and health.
May they know that riches are not needed for wealth.
Have them face problems they'll meet on their way.
God bless this couple who marry today.
