Where can I mashup and edit 2 famous songs together?

I am trying to mashup 2 famous songs.

1) Louis Armstrong- what a wonderful world

2) Etta James - at last

I want to mash these songs together to create and play as a processional song as I walk down the aisle at my wedding in 2 weeks.

Can anyone pls help?

Putting these songs together is a great idea. They are both positive on nature and have a strong melody. Maybe you should not call it making. A more appropriate term is called Segway. You start with one song and play an intro, verse and chorus then figure a transition out to start the next song. There are many ways to transition to the new song. One thing you might do is change keys to emphasize the next song. I would stay within a step to a minor third for that and transpose up. After a verse and chorus then Maude you could reestablish the first song by playing the chorus again. You could try to mix the hook lines together but that maybe overkill. Hope this helps you get a good idea.

Hi Sayde,

First of all that is definitely a great choice of songs that you plan to use for your big day :)

The question here is do you plan to do it yourself or do you want a professional to take care of that for you. Either way it can be done and beautifully done if you hire someone, I would be more than happy to help you out with it.

What I can suggest is to bring the bpm up of Louis Armstrong song and bring them on the same key or you can still get away with playing the first instrumental section of At Last into the first verse or first chorus of what a wonderful word since you'll be walking down the aisle I wouldn't suggest using full tracks since that could be too long, entirely depends on the location of your marriage.

Wishing you a wonderful life ahead and let me know if you need help with it, I'll be more than happy to do it for you :)
