While making our wedding playlist my husband and I went back and forth being finding our perfect first dance song. We didn't any "traditional" wedding songs but we wanted a song that would communicate our love for one another. For our first dance, we danced on the clouds to Case's "Happily Ever After".

The lyrics include lines such as:

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I will be your man
Your protector, your best friend
Till my humble life is ended
And time begins again, couldn't we be...

[Chorus]
Couldn't we be happily ever after?
We could be strong together for so long
My love is oh so strong
Couldn't we be happily ever after?
Couldn't we be?
Leaving you never till forever's gone

What did you decide on as your first dance song?cfb_1211981.jpg

    We're dancing to "It's Your Love" by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.

    We almost picked "At Last" by Etta James. I've always loved that song, and it also fits us. But ultimately, FH wanted It's Your Love. I'm fine with that, as it's a beautiful song. We will still play At Last at some point during the evening.

    I love the idea of having a song in your FH's first language.

    Time in a bottle by Jim Croce, my FH has been singing this song to me since we first started dating, and we danced to it at our senior prom so it is perfect for us

    Frank Sinatra's voice will really set the romantic tone for the night.
