First Dance Help!!

After a wedding planning-free weekend in VT, I had a mini panic attack this morning when I saw my countdown said 18 days! So much to do!!

One of the biggest things is that we still don’t have a first dance song. Well I take that back. We have 3, actually. But there are little things about each of them that I’m not 100% about.

1. Everything by Michael Buble – For months we said that would be our first dance, we love it and FH played it for me when we first started dating. But it’s a little too fast and you really can’t slow dance to it, so FH is afraid we’ll just look dumb.

2. The Luckiest by Ben Folds – We love this song too but it’s the opposite problem – it almost seems too slow to dance to.

3. Then by Brad Paisley – I actually found this song when I did a search on here about first dances. We really like the lyrics but it’s a little too “country” for us.

Has anyone used or are using any of these for their first dance? Any advice? Or anyone know if any other bands do covers of these songs?

We were going to dance to Everything, but like you said it is a little fast. I was going to get dance lessons and have a choreographed dance, but FH found another song that he really loves and wants to use instead. Stay With You - John Legend. I am a little worried that song is too fast too, so we still might get dance lessons. I guess it is too late for you guys to get lessons. Sorry...I am not help!

Re: First Dance Help!!

ok everything by michael buble is kinda fast, we are using that for our photo montage instead!

im a big country music fan and love the song by brad paisley! i know its kinda country but honestly country music is the best for stuff like this!! they are very to the heart and very realatable to real life!!
me and FH are using lost in the moment my big and rich (country)
but another REALLY good first dance song is

Its your love- by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill
we would have used this but my brother got married last year and stole it first!!
this song is very good and to me its extra good because tim and faith are really married so you know the lyrics are true and when they sing it to each other its like real! here are the lyrics

Dancin' in the dark middle of the night
Takin' your heart and holdin' it tight
Emotional touch touchin' my skin
And asking you to do what you've been doin' all over again

Oh it's a beautiful thing don't think I can keep it all in
I just gotta let you know what it is that won't let me go

It's your love
It just does something to me
It sends a shock right through me
I can't get enough
And if you wonder
About the spell I'm under
Oh it's your love

Better than I was, more than I am
And all of this happened by taking your hand
And who I am now is who I wanted to be
And now that we're together,
I'm stronger than ever
I'm happy and free

Oh it's a beautiful thing,
Don't think I can keep it all in
If you asked me why I've changed,
All I gotta do is say your sweet name

It's your love
It just does something to me
It sends a shock right through me
I can't get enough
And if you wonder
About the spell I'm under
Oh, it's your love

Baby, Oh oh, oh,

Oh it's a beautiful thing,
Don't think I can keep it all in
I just gotta let you konw what it is that won't let me go

It's your love
It just does something to me
It sends a shock right through me
I can't get enough
And if you wonder
About the spell I'm under,
Oh it's your love
It's your love, it's your love, it's your love
