Introduction of Mr. & Mrs. - Oye Como Va (House Version) with Percussionist solo Intro of Bridal Party - Bring 'Em Out (Jay-Z vocals and instrumental only) First Dance - When God Made You by Newsong and Natalie Grant Father/Daughter Dance - De Niña a Mujer by Julio Iglesias (Spanish) Mother/Son Dance - Madre Mia by Grupo Mania (Spanish) Cake Cutting - Ice Cream by Sarah Mclachlan Taking off the Garter - Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye Garter Toss - Big Pimpin' by Jay-Z Bouquet Toss - Like a Virgin by Madonna 2nd Dance - NONE Last Dance - Closing Time by Semisonic
We worked HARD to come up with 'unique' songs and they were a HUGE hit, so much so that our DJ 'borrowed' the Bring 'Em Out idea and will use it in the future.
