Re: 1st dance song

We went the non-traditional route with the song Fever by Peggy Lee. Everyone loved it!

Re: 1st dance song

I am really into a Keith Urban song, called Making Memories of Us...I think someone on American Idol sang it two weeks ago, and since then I've heard it on the radio once or twice. It's such a beautiful song....
FH and I really love 'How sweet it is (to be loved by you) by James Taylor, it's totally our song, however, it is a little on the fast side and so I think we will use that when we cut the cake!

Re: 1st dance song

our song is 'forever and for always' by shania twain, the lyrics are perfect for a wedding song and totally for how FH and i feel for each other!

i did really like the idea of doing something unique also but to us the song i mentioned above is just so much more meaningful (more than any other song out there for us personally)-- if we didn't have that one though it would definitely be 'can't get enough of your love babe' by barry white and we would 'fast dance' are butts off the whole time!!!

...that will be our second song played to get everyone going

Re: 1st dance song

My Fh was thinking about 'wonderful tonight' (But I don't think it's about 2 people (it's about what the man thinks of the woman (so, I don't think we're picking that one...maybe have it played and dedicated to the bride)

I personally like the Carrie Underwood song (can't think of the title...but it was her single)

But we also haven't decided on that either!

Re: 1st dance song

We are dancing to two songs because our first choice is only 2 1/2 minutes and not long enough to invite people to join us.

1. Somebody by Depeche Mode
2. Just Like Heaven by The Cure (acoustic version)

Re: 1st dance song

we are using 'I Don't Know Much (But I Know I Love You)' by Aaron Neville/Linda Ronstadt....it has a cute story behind it for us.

Open Arms? I actually cut it on my computer to decide on what I thought...(listening)....it's kind of a sad song, but I could see it being beautiful as a first dance song. I say go for it if you like it.
