Country songs for first dance?

Gen, on July 19, 2018 at 5:06 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 37
FH and I are both huge country music fans so we really want our first dance to be a country song, but we can’t seem to agree on one! So far we are thinking maybe Diamonds and Twine by Ryan Hurd or Speechless by Dan and Shay, and I love either Today or Then by Brad Paisley but FH doesnt really like Brad Paisley :/ we are being super indecisive lol and open to all suggestions!

    My FH and I are doing country songs for all our dances. We are doing God gave me You by Blake Shelton

    Are you looking for a newer country song?

    We are leaning towards When I said I Do by Clint Black

    When I Said I Do is a top contender!

    I'm also trying to convince FH to go with Easy by Jason Aldean.

    Tracy Byrd- Keeper of the Stars is going to play right before our ceremony. I think that it could also be a first dance song.

    We are also trying to choose country. We like:
    look at you girl, Chris Ledoux
    With you I Am, Cody Johnson
    Forever, Bart Crow Band
    Feet don’t touch the ground, Stoney larue
    One I Want, Flatland cavalry
    Crazy like you, josh grider
    You, Jason Cassidy

    so clearly we we haven’t narrowed it down! 😂

    I’m not sure if he is country, but Jake Etheridge has some really good love songs.

    We’re thinking about Speechless as well. Another possibility is Grow Old With Me - Florida Georgia Line.

    Hey Pretty Girl by Kip Moore is a super sweet song. I really like that one.

    Some others I particularly like:

    I Could Not Ask for More, Sara Evans

    True Believers, Darius Rucker

    Bless the Broken Road, Rascal Flatts

    In Case You Didn't Know, Brett Young

    There are a LOT more from the 90s and early 2000s that you don't hear as much (or ever) on the radio anymore. I'm still hunting through my digital music from decades-old ripped CDs and more recent downloads to assemble our playlist. (FH does not like country but he will tolerate it for me, since I doubt we're going to play Slipknot and 5FDP with his grandparents there.)

    Omg for Easy, listen to the version by Morgan Wallen. He’s actually the one who wrote that song and I think he sings it even better!

    Cross My Heart by George Strait

    Look up the lyrics. So sweet! I’m a huge country music listener and wanted that song, but my fiancé isn’t. So we agreed on something else.

    We were planning to do our first dance to “God Bless the Broken Road” by Rascal Flatts before we changed our minds. My director did her first dance to “From This Moment On” by Shania Twain. Both beautiful songs!
