Someone recently started a thread with songs for the wedding - like first dance, BP entrance, cake cutting, etc etc etc. Like in the last week or two. I can't for the life of me find it - can anyone help?
Okay girls - i get a magazine called Bridal Guide & I thought this would be helpful - so it's long - but i hope it helps SOMEONE!
