I have a slight dilemna, although I guess if I just went along with it, this wouldn't be so.
How do you tell someone (very close to you) who has asked you to sing at their wedding that the piece they chose isn't really that appropriate for a wedding? The song "Eagle's Wings" is pretty, but I'm not sure if it is right for a wedding ceremony.
Not sure what to do.

1. ask them to sing at reception instead.
2. blame it on your priest (he suddenly has something against non-church songs being sung during ceremony).
3. mention about how you're trying to keep the ceremony too long (don't want anybody yawning), then see #1.
4. ask them to sing a different song.
does this help?
by the way, i'm singing "jailhouse rock" as you walk down the aisle. worked it all out with your mother. she's playing air guitar. it's going to be awesome. there's no such thing as a wedding without elvis.
much love!
Is it your wedding or theirs? I've heard Eagle's Wings (they hymn) sung at 3 different weddings.
If it's a sacred ceremony it's perfect text, just not standard wedding literature.
Do you not want to sing it? Or is someone asking to sing it at your wedding?
By the way, Eric and I had an 8 part men's a capella version of "Just As I Am" during communion. As well as classical versions of Love Divine All Loves Excelling, Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing, Thou Gracious God Whose Mercy Lends, Now Thank We All Our God, and Praise to the Lord the Almighty incorporated throughout our ceremony from organ music to choral music.
Some people may think those were inappropriate for a wedding too.
