Got this email from a friend sometime back. Just only managed to listen to this and I thought it was worth putting up as well.

A bit of history here:
Felix Mendelssohn's "Wedding March", written in 1842, is one of the best known of the pieces from his suite of incidental music (Op. 61) to Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream. It is one of the most frequently used wedding marches, generally being played on a church pipe organ. At weddings in many English-speaking countries, this piece is commonly used as a recessional.

NB:
Do not confuse this with "Here Comes The Bride". "Here Comes The Bride" is the tune of Richard Wagner's Bridal Chorus..
