ok, please ladies i know someone has to agree with me on this on. i have been to 4 weddings this year and ALL of them had 'AT LAST' as their wedding song. ok, yes i think we can all agree that it is a very beautiful song. but isnt it becoming a littel over played! it is becoming an on going joke with me and fh. every wedding we go to now we just look at eachother to see if that is going to be the couples wedding song, and if it is we just start hysterical laughing. i think too many couples are picking the song just because they feel it is a nice, safe, typical 'wedding song' that everyone wants to hear. personally me and fh are picking a song probably no one will want to hear or even know what it is, but thats the whole point. our wedding song is extremly special to US. not all the guests coming. so i beg of you girls pick a song near and dear to your heart and not the 'it' wedding song of the year. sorry had to get that off my chest. help, anyone agree with me???

This song is a classic blues/jazz song and it will never die whom ever sings this song. I personally like the original.
I have never been to a wedding using this song. Not like the Shania song 'from this moment' but that is the bride and groom choice not the guest and if anyone decides to have the shania song again I will still be happy and will not criticize.

I think picking a wedding song is a very personal thing and At Last is a classic love song. You can never go wrong with a classic and you can never go wrong if you follow your heart and pick another song.

Congrats to all the brides to be whatever your song may be. May it bring joy to you whenever you hear it for the rest of your lives!

I chose a song most people never heard of...I wanted to be different.

If I Never Knew You
(Pococantis soundtrack)

Here are the lyrics

If I never knew you
If i never felt this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious life can be
And if I never held you
I would never have a clue
How at last I'd find in you
The missing part of me.
In this world so full of fear
Full of rage and lies
I can see the truth so clear
In your eyes
So dry your eyes
And I'm so grateful to you
I'd hve lived my whole life through
Lost forever
If I never knew you
If I never knew you
I'd be safe but half as real
Never knowing I could feel
A love so strong and true
I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever
If I never knew you
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we'd make the whole world bright
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
all they'd leave us were these wispers in the night
But still my heart is saying we were right
Oh if I never knew you
There's no moment I regret
If i never felt this love
Since the moment that we met
I would have no inkling of
If our time has gone too fast
How precious life can be...
I've lived at last...
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we'd make the whole world bright
I thought our love wuold be so beautiful
We'd turn the darkness into light
And still my heart is saying we were right
we were right
And if I never knew you
If I never knew you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky
Never knowing why
Lost forever
If I never knew you

thats why we wanted something just us....although some others do use it, its not played heavily in our circle of family and friends

plus we sing it whenever we hear it...oh sorry - its 'Come whatmay' from Moulin Rouge
