First Song.....

Hello girls

I am new here and have a question...I am getting married at Russo's On The Bay, they have this stair thing that we will be coming down from when we first come into the room. I actually have never been to a wedding there but saw video. I thought it was cheesey but my FH wants to do it. Anyway, I do not know what song to come down the stairs to. I guess it's the same choice I would have to make for the song you would walk into the room with. I can't find anything suitable. Just to get an idea of what type of music I like, I listen to KTU alot. I need some suggestions...HELP

Oh and by the way, I found someone that got engaged on the same day as I did and she is having her wedding on the same day (FUTUREMRS). How odd right????

Hi Aga,

Thank you. I work right next door from Leonard's

My sister got married there but that was 10 years ago.

I always see the guys out there keeping up with the landscaping. I hear that they just renovated :)

My fiance lives in Brooklyn, I'm in Queens (hence QueensBride,lol). I have booked the hall, church, videographer, looking at photographers and flowers for now. I am going to wait to look for dresses for me, I just started a well needed diet. I will be looking at florists next and then favors, invites, etc.

How far have u come so far??

Re: First Song.....

My fiance lives in Mill Basin, but funny he owns alot of real estate (apt buildings) in Willaimsburg. Small world!!!

I live 5 minutes from Russo's and his sister got married there, and I always here such nice things about it. I didn't even want to go look at it because I wanted 'my own place' to get married but I fell in love. Hey it's close to me, no one has to worry about me being late, LOL.

Re: First Song.....

I like 'At Last' by Etta James as our first song to dance together to and a few others, lol. But I just cant think of a song to enter in the room to. It is so frustrating, LOL

Re: First Song.....

our entrance song is either going to be big pimpin by jay z, the austin powers theme song or we are the champions by queen!!

Re: First Song.....

im not clear on what the mood you want when you come down the stairs or the stairs come down (im very confused as to what it would look like)

What about 'Lets get it started' by Black eyed peas if you want to kick off the reception in a party way


Also I love swing music and one of my faves is Sing, sing sing by Goodman. It really gets people going.

I was thinking along the lines of 'lets get this party started' by pink.
