First dance song
I need help trying to find a first dance song. I am getting married on December 5, 2009. We have been together for 10 years and I do not want a real mushy song. I would like to have a oldies/rock something that everyone will know. I also would like to impress the people on what song we pick, I want them to think WOW they really thought alot on their song. Any suggestions you can give me will be great.

Who is providing the music for your wedding? Any professional DJ or band that specializes in weddings should be able to help you with recommendations. I offer my wedding clients ideas for all sorts of first dance songs, last dance songs, parents dances, even cake-cutting songs, bouquet toss song, and grand entrance songs.

People who have been providing music at hundreds of weddings over the years are your best resource for ensuring that the music is great at your wedding -- and the really good professionals don't just play music, they help you PLAN the music!!

We have performed many different wedding songs. "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton is a highly requested one for us. We just had a request recently for "A Time For Us" by another couple. It's really your preference.

I am considering "your love is king" by Sade. Beautiful song and great to dance to.

We're getting married the same day too!!! We chose Gordon Lightfoot's 'Beautiful'.... It was the first song my fiance played his guitar and sang for me, also it's one of his late mother's favorite artists...So it has even more meaning for us... Another one we considered was Eric Clapton's 'Second Nature'... Good Luck and Have a Beautiful Marriage!!!

Here is a song that most love, but sometimes don't even know who the artist is... Biggest Part of Me "Ambrosia" Check it out. Aloha from Hawaii... Hope you choose this song... It has a really feel good vibe... Let me know what you think.
