Irving Berlin Old Fashioned Wedding Lyrics

Old Fashioned Wedding Lyrics

Frank:

We’ll have an old fashioned wedding

        Blessed in the good old fashioned way

        I’ll vow to love you forever

        You’ll vow to love and honour and obey

        Somewhere in some little chapel

        Someday when orange blossoms bloom

        We’ll have an old fashioned wedding

        An simple wedding for an 

Old-fashioned bride and groom





Annie:

I want a wedding in a big church 

With bridesmaids and flower girls

A lot of ushers in tailcoats,

 Reporters, and photographers

A ceremony with a bishop 

who will tie the not and say

Do you agree to love and honour,

Love and honour yes, but not obey

I want a wedding that’s surrounded 

By diamonds and platinum

A big reception at the Whaldorf 

With Champaign and caviar

I want a wedding like the Vanderbilt’s had

Everything big not small

If I can’t have that kind of a wedding 

I don’t want to be married at all.
