As you know, Sunny and I are getting married on Monday (Woooooop) and we can’t wait to see you there!!
What you probably don’t know is, we have invited the team from Music Wedding Videos to film everyone enjoying the day, singing, dancing and generally having a great time to ‘Now That We Found Love’ by Heavy D & The Boyz.
Here is the song we’ve chosen for you to get familiar with …
And maybe a few moves for inspiration…
How this works is, the guys will be equipped with printed lyrics and speakers on the day; they’ll be looking for volunteers to sing along to a couple of lines from the track on camera. They’ll then turn the footage into a music video of the wedding day. Don’t worry too much about learning all the words as we mentioned they’ll have some printed on the day and after playing a short section of the song a couple of times you’ll soon pick it up.
You’ll have a few go’s at getting it right, and they’re pretty good at editing to make you look awesome. Your singing voice doesn’t matter either because they’re not going to use the audio – the real song will be played over the video footage of you singing along.
The lyrics are included at the bottom of the page
How up for it are you?
Mad for it!
OK, so you fancy yourself as a bit of a performer or a pop-star in another life?
Here’s what you can do:
- Watch the video
- Learn the lyrics
- Practice in front of the mirror
- Choreograph a dance routine
- Get together with some like-minded guests to do something as a group
We are looking for people to (willingly) come forward beforehand to be given specific lines to learn, and we will then forward everyone their own lyrics to perfect 🙂 If any of you do want to perform something special, please let us know or contact the MWV guys at info@musicweddingvideos.com so they can plan it into the shoot.
Happy to get involved on the day
Here’s what we recommend:
- Watch the video
- Try to learn at least one or two lines from the song
- Grab the MWV guys on the day and let them know you want to get involved
A little bit camera-shy
We realise some people either don’t feel super comfortable in front of cameras, especially video cameras. Don’t worry – the MWV guys are very sensitive to this and won’t force you to get involved if you don’t feel comfortable. But if it’s not too painful, we do hope you can at least give us a smile or a wave so that we can remember you on our special video. And remember – if it’s your singing voice you’re worried about, they don’t actually use that in the final video – you’re just miming along to the real song. Here’s what we recommend:
- Don’t worry too much about learning the lyrics
- On the day, see if you’re in the right mood. If not, just let the MWV guys know if you’d prefer to just be an ‘extra’ without performing, or if you don’t want to be in the video at all.
We think this is a really fun way to record and re-live our big day for years to come and hope you’ll all get involved in some way.
Still not sure how this works?
Here are a couple of examples of a finished video from previous weddings once they have been edited and effects have been put on…
So……..
- Glamorous couple – Check
- Beautiful Location – Check
- Awesome dancing and singing – that’s where you come in
Let’s make this a wedding video to remember!
Love
Kassie and Sunny

PPS Here are those lyrics…
Now that we found found love
What are we gonna do with it. [x2]
One two, tell me what you got
Let me slip my quarters inside your slot to hit the jackpot
Rev me up Rev me up
My little buttercup
We can tug sheets snuggle up and get stuck
Believe it or not
Here comes the brother with glow
A strugglin’, Bubblin’ overweight lover hurt prone
So what’s it gonna be
Me or the TV
Now let me take time to set your mind and your body free
So why don’t you just stretch
Stretch for a sec.
[?]
Shake me, Shake me
Baby Baby bake me
No need to fake here I am
Come on and take me
Wind your body
Baby move your body
I see you slip sliding
Come on now do it hottie
I’m not quite sure as to what is going down
But I’m feeling Hunky Dory
’bout this thing that I found
[CHORUS x2]
I dig the way you wiggle
You don’t jiggle
Once you jiggle
So hand over your love
Cause it’s heavier
Than it’ll
Move like a Mover
Sye wanted to groove
So I grooved her
Then she wanted to learn
So we’d be schoolin’
So I schooled her
(Mary had a little lamb)
But not like this
We can waltz and turn
Rumble tumble and twist
Then you think you gonna give in
Phantasies relivin’
So lay down and relax
Lover my lady
Lady love of my baby girl
Spread your wings
So we can fly around the world
[?]
When you drop me kisses
You’re so cute you drop the bomb on me
Stretch it
Stretch it
Flex it
Flex it
Gimme the permission
Okey, Dokey
I’ll bless ya
Blessin’ like buddha
Buddha as the bless
You can lay down on the Lover
Put your head on my chest
[CHORUS x2]
What can we do
What are we gonna do
Roses are red and Violets are blue
Love is good and plenty
If you get plenty good lovin’
[?]
Do me right
Do me right
My lonesome dove
Tell me one more time
What is this thing called love
I’m not quite sure
As to what is going down
But I’m feelin’ Hunkey Dory
‘Bout this thing that I found
