Re: I need to dedicate a song to my bridesmaids....

I am using 'Count on me'-Theme from Waiting to Exhale

Or
if you want something upbeat you can use
Respect by Aretha Franklin or Believe by Cher

How about,'That's what friends are for' by Dion Warwick and company.

I'm using 'I'm every Woman' sung by Whitney Houston. It's our 'anthem'

I think 'That's What Friends Are For' is perfect !

Jenn you took the words right outta my mouth - Queen. You can also do traditional chick anthems like 'I Will Survive' (try to forget what the song is about)...wanna hear dorky? My girls and I are going to do 'Man...I Feel Like A Woman' by Shania. If that isn't pure geekdom, I don't know what is...and yet I'm so excited about it!

That's so great! When are you supposed to play these songs?

I was at a wedding where the bride played 'These are the days' by Natlaie Merchant and I thought it was great

We are going to play 'Thank You for Being a Friend' (the theme song to Golden Girls) and dedicate it to all our friends. We thought that this song is a song that never heard at a wedding but 'That's What Friends Are For' is. No offense to those that are using it.

How about.. That's What Friends Are For?

Or The theme from Friends...I'll Be There For You...by The Rembrendts.

I think they are all nice songs but when do you think it is the most appropriate time to play it?

Re: I need to dedicate a song to my bridesmaids....

I think anytime during the reception is OK (after dinner) and all the girls could go up and either dance around or whatever................

Re: I need to dedicate a song to my bridesmaids....

i am thinking of doing 'remember me this way' from casper.

One of my bridesmaids is my sorority sister and that song means a lot to us because it has a relation to the sorority.

But I think I am going to do it for all of them

Re: I need to dedicate a song to my bridesmaids....

I am using 'These are The Days'-it was our college 'anthem' song and the night before graduation we must of played that song a million times standing in a circle, singing, and crying!

Re: I need to dedicate a song to my bridesmaids....

The song 'Friends' by Michael W. Smith is really pretty, I've heard it at a wedding before- but it does have a religious theme, so may or may not be what you are looking for. A cute idea that this same bride did at her wedding was play the song for the bridal party as a whole, and to make it entertaining for the whole audience to watch, we switched partners every 20 seconds or so. She just played the song sometime during the reception.

Re: I need to dedicate a song to my bridesmaids....

Thanks Ladies!! Keep those ideas coming. Karen, I am just gonna have a dedication to them during the reception...I will leave it up to the dj when he wants to play it. I'm every woman sounds good!
