The Wedding Planner (2001 Film) [Soundtrack]
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Jennifer Lopez finds herself in an unlikely love triangle as San Francisco's most sought-after wedding planner. The romantic comedy does not include any of Lopez's music on the soundtrack, but it does feature a collection of pop-lite tracks that her fans may find equally thrilling. Composer Mervyn Warren's score is featured at the album's end, but what should keep Lopez fans interested are the contributions of 20-year-old Jessica Riddle and Jessica Sheely, who each take a page from the modern romantic pop-song playbook. Lisa Stansfield handles the Goffin-King composition "Somewhere My Baby Waits for Me." Sister Hazel chime in with their harmonious rock on "We'll Find It," which is followed up by Australia's Mishelle Bradford-Jones's self-penned "Life Is What You Make It," an empowerment anthem worthy of Dawson's Creek. Dan Finnerty remakes the 1960s hit "A Groovy Kind of Love." And for pure nostalgia, both John Denver and Olivia Newton-John are featured with hits that graced AM radio 25 years ago. --Rob O'Connor

Who cares about the movie, its got The Dan Band!.......2003-07-15
Dan Finnerty covers "Groovy Kind of Love" on this soundtrack, which I believe to be the only recorded song from "The Dan Band", the wedding band you may remember from the movie Old School, who bastardize Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" and Styx's "Lady", while making them completely awesome at the same time.
This alone might make it worth buying. Used. Cheap.
A must-have for every hopeless romantic........2003-01-26
The movie was absolutely romantic and sweet, so of course it needed a soundtrack to follow in its footsteps. The Wedding Planner soundtrack is filled with optimistic songs about finding and/or being in love, such as "I Can't Help Myself" by Nobody's Angel, a sweet ballad about puppy love. Also included is "Adore You" by Nikki Hassman, a song which is self-explanatory.
Bottom line? If you adore love songs, this is the soundtrack for you.
5 Stars For Lisa Stansfield...........2002-12-31
"Somewhere My Baby Waits For Me" Is The Reason I Bought This Soundtrack...And Is It Worth It!...Great Song By One Of The Most Underrated Singers Around!... I'd Give The Rest Of The Cd 4 Stars.
Great winter-time album for romantic young women.......2002-11-19
If J Lo.'s "Wedding Planner" movie was the ideal Valentine's Day girls night (or afternoon) out movie, then this soundtrack is the perfect February pick-me-up from the post-V. Day winter blahs of the unattached and/or pining away. The songs are very female-oriented, romantic, and usually filled with optimistic longing.
My favorite tracks are the ones like these --
"Somewhere My Baby Waits for Me" - my personal favorite, very "sweep-you-off-your-feet" music and comforting hopeful words for any unattached hopeless romantic.
"Adore You" - pop-folksy song that in any other context might annoy me, but on this CD it's perfect!
"I Can't Help Myself" - a decadently girly crush song. Makes you think of pink candy hearts and nail polish to match!
"We'll Find It" - an upbeat, fun, hopeful song that gives a small shot of energy to the slower pace of the CD
"Plan on Forever" - not the same version as used in the film, but still a great song. I think it would have been even better, though, if J. Lo. had performed it.
I also love the "Garden Conversation" love theme - very "hollywood romantic comedy" music, glittery, lots of strings, sweet melody, etc. And I love "Steve and Mary's Tango". The scene in the movie is great, and I don't know about you, but I find tango music to be intense and sensual and it somehow manages to fit together on this album nicely.
Now I can't say I listen too much to the "Wedding song trilogy" (I honestly love you, annie's song, and a groovy kind of love) that often at all, but they are nice to have on there for novelty's sake!
Overall, I recommend this CD, but be forewarned -- if you're not of the variety of unattached/pining hopeless romantic female with a soft spot for weddings and romantic comedies, you may not understand quite why I think so highly of it! If you are, however, be prepared to snap out of your blues and keep those eyes peeled for your prince charming....for "one fine day, you'll turn around and there he will be......"
sweet!.......2001-08-05
I love this CD! I love this movie! You may call me old-fashioned, but this is the kind of music I listen to. I liked JLo's "My Love Don't Cost A Thing," although it was so different from the other songs. I've always loved Jennifer Lopez in movies and Matthew McConaughy was great! These are the songs (and the movie) that won't get old or boring quickly!
