Is this song appropriate

I am a 'REALITY' type person, and I really like this Don Henley song for our first dance. I am little worried that people may think it odd, since it is not a fluffy song, but still a beautiful song, tell me what you think, here's the lyrics.

TIA

My Wedding
(Larry John McNally)

For my wedding, I will dress in black
And never again will I look back
Ah, my dark angels we must part
For I've made a sanctuary of my heart

To want what I have
To take what I'm given with grace
For this I pray
On my wedding day

For my wedding, I don't want violins
Or sentimental songs about thick and thin
I want a moment of silence and a moment of prayer
For the love we'll need to make it in the world out there

To want what I have
To take what I'm given with grace
For this I pray
On my wedding day
On my wedding day

I dream, and my dreams are all glory and light
That's what I've wanted for my life
And if it hasn't always been that way
Well, I can dream and I can pray
On my wedding day

So what makes us any different from all the others
Who have tried and failed before us
Maybe nothing, maybe nothing at all
But I pray we're the lucky ones; I pray we never fall

To want what we have
To take what we're given with grace
For these things I pray
On my wedding day
On my wedding day

Its absolutely appropriate! You should go with whatever you and FH feel in your hearts.

I am not into 'fluffy' songs. as you put it. We are probably using 'Into the Mystic' Van Morrison, and that really has nothing to do with love.

Do what ever you want, people will be looking at you guys, more then paying attention to the words.

I have never heard that song, I will have to down load it.

Okay, I downloaded it, Very Pretty!!!!!!! I like it!

This is a favorite of mine.

It is a realistic look at marriage, not all hearts and flowers. I think it is fine for you to use.
