Country music brides! Song help

Becca L., on May 22, 2016 at 12:13 PM Posted in Planning 0 27

I'm working on getting our song choices finalized. What songs are y'all choosing? We are doing Keeper of the Stars for our first dance. But that's all I have so far! I was thinking Little White Church for the bouquet toss. Do y'all have any ideas for the garter toss? And for when the groom takes off the garter or when the catcher puts it on the girl who catches the bouquet? I was also thinking of Humble and Kind for our mother daughter dance (not doing a father daughter one). Any other suggestions? Also need suggestions for when the groom and his guys walk down the aisle. Something fun. And for the entrance into the reception for everyone? Was thinking Friends in Low Places maybe. And for the cake cutting? And what other fun songs are y'all doing throughout the reception?

    I love country music.

    We are still deciding on our first date song, but I'm really partial to Bless the Broken Road. Our grand entrance will either be a clip from Dibs or Stuck Like Glue. For bouquet toss, I've heard Man I Feel Like a Woman, Findin’ a Good Man and This One's for the Girls. For the garter toss/removal, I Like It, I Love It. And cake cutting, Honey Bee, How Sweet It Is (to be loved by you), and Sweet Thing.

    We'll also be playing Wagon Wheel, but my sorority has a special thing they do with that song.

    Following because these are all awesome suggestions and I haven't thought about music yet.

    Also did I read that right? The guy who catches the garter has to PUT IT ON the girl who catches the bouquet? I would rethink that.

    We are doing Humble and Kind for the mother/groom dance.

    We are also doing Annie's Song for our first dance.

    My dad and I are dancing to Stealing Cinderella.

    Then we havine a few line dances. Footloose, Copperhead Road, and Whiskey Drinking. We decided not to do the garter or bouquet toss.

    I'm also madly in love with the new Noise song. That's on our list too.

    Has anyone else not seen the guy who catches the garter put it on the girl who catches the bouquet? Obviously if the two aren't cool with it, we wouldn't force them. But it has literally been done at the last five weddings I've been too and everyone always loves it. Depending on how daring they are, the guy usually only goes up to the knee. Although the last one I went to the girl had a crush on the guy and he knew it so he went all the way up to her mid thigh and used his teeth and everyone thought it was awesome, especially the girl lol

    For the guys coming up the aisle Just What I Do, maybe? Or Me and My Gang.

    Other fun songs I was thinking of, without really knowing where they would go. Love gets me Every Time, Unbroken, The Day Before You.

    This should be a neat thread, I can't wait to see what other suggestions you get!

    Thanks for all the input! Excited to see more and narrow then down. I'm hoping for some good line dances too. Was actually thinking of having the whole bridal party do one together right after the first dance, but they all live in different states so not sure how we will be able to coordinate it.

    Personally, I thought at least throwing the garter was cute, but DH nixed that. Since he wouldn't do it I wouldn't throw my bouquet, so we skipped both Smiley winking

    Having the two people who catch it dance is cute but can be really, really awkward. Maybe it's a day-of decision, but have a song ready?

    I've seen it done before, but it was awkward. Most of our guests are in relationships and it seemed inappropriate to surprise anyone with that. I will be giving my bouquet to the couple who has been married the longest. The garter will get tossed, just in our hotel room later. Smiley winking

    Becca, do they all line dance? If not, I would skip that idea.

    I love country music but i haven't even thought about the songs we are going to choose since we still have a while left before we get married.

    I have never seen the guy who catches the garter put it on the girl who catches the bouquet.

    Most likely dancing to My Girl by the Temptations for daddy/daughter song and I swear by all for one for our first dance song. Smiley smile not sure about any others though

    Man, I feel like a woman might be another option for the bouquet toss. Our first dance will be Die a Happy Man by Thomas Rhett (not my first choice but FH is dead set on it and it makes him happy so it makes me happy). Garter toss we are 10000% skipping but anything Luke Bryan comes to mind, ha!

    Love Little White Church for bouquet toss! We are doing mother daughter dance Martina Mcbride's In My Daughter's Eyes and for garter toss Brad Paisley I'm Still a Guy or Georgia Satellite's Keep Your Hands to Your Self! We are still figuring out other songs! Good luck!

    We are doing first and last dance songs. First is his song to me, which is Staind "Tangled Up in You". Not really country, but very pretty. My song to him for our last dance is Rascal Flatts "Nothing Like This". I don't really have much family left, but I want to dance with my son's to "My Wish" by RF again. But 90% of our song list for the night is country Smiley smile
