Marriage. Tunes to waltz down the isle to.. 22:17 - Feb 7 with 5411 viewsDiscodroids

3rd time lucky for me lads, 7th of june. The richard burton and liz taylor of leigh on sea.

Had to go to the registrar in southend today in this concrete sobibor 1970's abomination flat pack council bunker straight out of some strontium dog wasteland to be interviewed by some stasi functionary in a demis roussos kaftan who water boarded me with questions about jo to make sure it wasn't a sham marriage.

I got a bit nervous at one point and launched into my mick jagger stella street impersonation . It felt like a Special branch interrogtion at some south armagh bog to release names of the local IRA nutting squad. I only want to make an honest woman of jo after 14 years, not expose her craft hobby of making pipe bombs out of baby bio and doctor white jam wrags at leigh on sea constitutional club of a sunday morning.

what a palarver, i dont recall all this agg for my for my first two marriages. admittedly for the first two nuptials i was out of my skate on happy pills, booze and bugle so i dont remember in bone white clarity the minutiae of those cermonies in 1990 and 1999.

My second wife joined a christian commune in the forest of dean after being married to me for 7 years so i hold my hands up to that one.

the sawtooth waves of life and the knuckle duster of getting through the next 24 hours every time we get up off the edierdown and go to work to provide as best we can got the best of me in that case, sorry about that michelle.


after given the east german high gauleiter every scrap of information i had stored in my snaypse including jo's blood group, i was asked what music we would like for our ceremony..

i was stumped .. so thought of the first track that meant something to us when our eyes locked over the juke box in the essex arms in brentwood.. luckily jo agreed.

what was your tune down the isle?

call me the king of fools..

Congrats Disco. We had our first dance to this Herbert remix. Been together for 20, married for 12 of them, testimony to Mrs FDC's patience and resolve more than anything.

I always liked the sound of "Band of Gold", but fortunately the choice was vetoed by someone who'd actually listened to the lyrics.

Best of British, Mrs DD!

Disco you’re a poet and you should know it!

We walked down the aisle to this, still going after 20 years so fingers crossed

First dance was Rainy Night In Soho by The Pogues in honour of our first possibly less than romantic liaison. Don’t recommend that, it’s really really really long

Hope all goes brilliantly well Disco and you and your lady have a long and happy life together.

We all make mistakes in our past, I made a few, but one woman, I really made a massive "mistake", shall we say.

Been with my lovely one now, for last six years, we are not married, but more the fact she doesn't do the big do, than any other reason. Thankfully with her, all is calm on the western front and it all has been very good, both ways.

Her main issue with me, is somehow her phone without her doing anything, gives her team lineup and goal notifications from all of our games. Quite handy, because she knows ahead of time, what kind of mood, I am likely to be in !!!

Good luck to you Disco. And hope absolutely its third time lucky for you.

Congratulations G and Jo.

I think if I ever got married I might ride up the steps of the registry office on a Harley with this playing...


Poll: Who is your player of the season?

Congrats Disco, the way you talk about your Jo convinces me that it'll be a happy ending.

You guys have got me in tears here . Lovely thread and some great music. I did a classical thing down the aisle but this was our first song.

My cousin had Band of Gold played as she walked down the isle, she had wanted Third Finger Left Hand but someone made a mistake, as did she, the marriage ended after six months.

Congrats Disco and as already mentioned fingers crossed and third time lucky, I'm on my third and trust me there won't be a fourth, our wedding song was a piss take, and everyone loved it "Another One Bites the Dust"

All the best mate

I was given Carte Blanche for the music apart from the first dance.

People gathered and walked into the service to these two:-



One of the readings was these lyrics (read by a man from this parish)




And once the knot was tied we walked down the aisle together to this


Then we walked into the post service meal to this

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

What a lovely thread.

No tunes at our 'in and out' affair at Kingston registry office but if we were to have one it would be this one. Might be bit corny but it is genuinely how I/we both felt not that long after meeting each other. We both considered each other as our 'prize' for all that we'd endured before. It was a blessing from the universe to finally find 'my person'.

Have a great day when it happens and a beautiful life you two. X

Congrats Disco. I've got to 60, via several 5-15 year relationships (and three sons), but always managed to avoid the marriage thing.
As the saying goes "Women marry men hoping they will change. Men marry women hoping they will not." I guess after 14 years you both know what your getting now...
I hope you have a great day (and marriage).

P.S. I would go for this tune (although I very much doubt that my current missus would accept it)

this thread makes me feel like i've come up on a strawberry mitsubishi circa 1996.

love is the key.

Yo, yo, yo Jo and Disco Tex and your sex o lettes.

Can only be one tune. Me and Cath had a funky wedding; none of that Chubby Checker shoite.



All the very best to you both.

Keep it funky 😉

Did I ever mention that I was in Minder?

cringe to the max, but this is our tune after the registrar had done her thing..



My wife’s favourite tune of all time, but as a church wedding some 38 years ago no ”tunes” for us!
Our first dance was to this.

I met my Mrs when we were in a band together, so instead of a first dance we just got up with the band and sang this.....


here's a recording of us singing it a few years later when we were in a different band
