First Dance song suggestions.....

OG FMP, on March 12, 2015 at 12:34 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 62

Ok so I had my mind set on John Legend "All of me" for our first dance but that song has gotten so played out that I actually switch the radio station when I hear it. I do love the lyrics, I just hate the fact that its so "popular"

FH and I love R&B - We would rather have a 80s/90s song but there are so many! Can you ladies help me out. I will of course have FH listen to it and we'll decide together. I just need some ideas. I have looked at WW "songs" tab, but would like your input. What song are you dancing to?? Thanks!

    My first my last my everything by Barry White. It's not Rand B, but catchy from back in the day.

    A few years ago, my friend who was getting married really liked the song "For You" by Kenny Lattimore.

    I know "All Of Me" is popular but the words are perfect! If you really like it, then go for it. Our song is "Thinking out Loud" by Ed Sheeran which is also popular but everytime I hear it, I get shivers. It makes me think of FH right away. We always text each other as soon as we hear it.

    I am still using "All of Me." It means so much to us I don't care how popular it is. I just think of the first time we heard it together.

    Yeah reggae, I really liked that song when she was considering it, so much so that I added it to my own playlist. I don't think it's overplayed either.

    Not sure if it's your style but I think a really good one is Jason Mraz - I Won't Give Up.

    There are tons of other John Legend songs that would work! I was considering stay with you but now am thinking van morrison crazy love because I don't really want to be an emotional mess.

    FH and I will dance to an older, less popular John Legend song "Stay with You." Better lyrics too IMO

    I'm shortening mine @Charla I feel like it's gonna be super awkward with everyone watching lol. On the topic of the actual post though, we're (like a lot of you) using thinking out loud by Ed Sheeran. I think you should still use all of me, it might be overplayed but all songs have been overplayed at one point and it's a super cute song! Lol

    @Charla We will play the whole song for our first dance and shorten the ceremony songs since the aisle really isn't that long.
