First dance song

Maybe research (Google, look back at photos or playlists, etc) what songs were popular at the time you first started dating or took a big step in your relationship. There might be a song that triggers happy memories for both of you. My FH is the one who suggested the song we're using. Otherwise I probably would not have been able to decide.

Aughhh we've had issues with this too!! We picked a song for our original date, but now that we postponed, I don't know how I feel about it anymore. One of the things I plan on doing is putting together a playlist of potential first dance songs, and us listening to them to figure out if we want to change our song or not. Hopefully, we'll either be able to rule them all out (and then put together another playlist), or we'll find one on the list, or we'll decide to keep our current song. I suggest looking for a list of uncommon first dance songs on Google to see what you come up with, and then listening through them all to see if you can find one you both like. Are there any concerts you went to see together? If so, do those artists have any songs that you could use as a meaningful first dance?

Do you and your FH have a “song” that everytime you hear it yall just love it! If so you can find a slow version or acoustic version plus it makes for a great memory!!

Go on a date night, have some fun, some drinks (if you drink) and just let some of the songs on your current playlist play during the car rides to wherever your going. Whatever songs you notice that both of you are feeling, write it down! Anything you guys might want to repeat before getting out the car; write it down. Don't think too much about it. I think a lot of times we feel like we're supposed to have that "ONE SPECIAL SONG" but sometimes there are 5 different songs that you guys love and then sometimes there's no songs and that's ok. It also doesn't have to be a slow love song. Something that both you guys can hear and think back and laugh about or cry about. I honestly feel like folks could suggest songs but you'd still be going to him like hey listen to this. I think it has to come naturally if you want him to feel something too.

My advice would be: what do you guys like as a couple? Traveling (look up songs about that), exercising together (research pumped up songs, maybe something you've two have worked out to that gets you excited), long car rides/road tripping together ( research songs about that...Cruisin' by Smokey Robinson is just one of our songs that we're using. We have a total of 3 songs but we're going to mix just 2; 1 fast, 1 slow and have the other song played at some point during the night) So let it come naturally, try the date night idea if you can or just hang out in the house, play some games and let the music play. Good luck!

We had this same problem, every single song I suggested he didn’t like. He ended up picking a song that I liked and we went with that one.

Does your FH *normally* connect with music? If he doesn't that may be part of your issue. If he does, maybe ask him to come up with a song (or a few songs) that speaks (speak) to him about your relationship and listen to it (them) to try to find one? We're both super into music - but H already had songs in mind for some of the big moments - so he ended up doing a lot of the music choices for our wedding.

We couldn't find any song that we LOVED so our DJ sent us a list of options and we randomly chose one. Not the best way, but we honestly didn't even pay attention to the song at ALL when we were dancing. We did "The One" by Kodaline.

Like Rebelle, my husband actually picked our first
dance song. He wasn’t too fond of anything I picked, but I really liked one he chose … and the rest is history.

I think that is the easiest part for us! Our first vacation as a couple we were on the patio of a restaurant in OCM. Frank Sinatra came on with "All the Way". My FH was so surprised I grabbed his hand and said "Let's dance". (note - there was no dance floor LOLOL) He said that's when he knew 100% for sure that I was the one for him. ~sigh~

I’m having the same issue!! Me and fiancé have such opposite Tastes in music to begin with so it’s even harder to find one we think is **the one** lol
