i need help with a modern wedding first dance song

Mine isnt modern but we are doing At Last by Etta James

We are using "The One" by Kodaline. Its not a well known artist, but was actually written as a first dance song. A popular modern one is Ed Sheeran's "Perfect" - I know a few couples using this one.

Mine is "Jenny's Song" by We The Kings (not a well-known band).
"Perfect" by Ed Sheeran

"See The Light" from Tangled if you're into Disney

"Say You Won't Let Go" by Boyce Avenue (another not well-known band)

Both the last and first song are very soft acoustic alternative songs.

We were thinking of doing Flightless bird, American mouth by Iron and Wine

View Quoted Comment This was our original choice. Love love love that song ❤️

We’ve really gone out on a limb now, our first dance is to Tightrope by Michelle Williams (from The Greatest Showman)

I’m leaning towards “Lights Down Low” by MAX. It’s a lovely song and he actually used it to propose to his girlfriend, and I thought that was sweet. It’s really easy to dance to!

Just throwing these out there...
-Because You Loved Me (Celine Dion)
-The Promise (Tracy Chapman)
-Seasons of Love (from the musical RENT)
And my favorite... “Runnin’ Home to You” from the TV show The Flash, sung by Grant Gustin

We're dancing to Alison Krauss and Union Station "when you say nothing at all"... we first danced to it 11 years ago and it just stuck as our song lol...

I mean as far as modern first dance songs go, anything Ed Sheeran sings is popular with brides right now. Haha. "All of me" by John legend. "I'm yours" Jason Mraz.

We used Never Stop by Safetysuit

View Quoted Comment I used to love We The Kings Travis replied to my tweets a couple of times!

We are planning on using Your Guardian Angel by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. Another song we wanted to use is My Escape by Ravenscode!

View Quoted Comment Your Guardian Angel was my sister & BIL’s first dance song!!! So pretty!

We are doing “ I get to love you” by ruelle and omg first time I heard it I fell in love. I also loooveee “I’ll be” by Edwin/Edward McCain

Depends...are you wanting to just sway back and forth or do an actual dance (ie: waltz?)
My FH and I are doing our first dance to If I Ain't Got You by Alicia Keys because it is in waltz time and I realllllly wanted to do a waltz and it was the only one he liked the lyrics on (he didn't want just instrumental music)

Coming Home by Leon Bridges
Somebody to Love by Valerie June

My fiancee chose I do by 98 degrees. We were indecisive between that song and amazed by lonestar

We are doing All over again by Leela James.. Beautiful song

We are using Truly, Madly, Deeply by Savage Garden. Idk what is considered "modern" though...
Considered using Marry Me by Bruno Mars, All of Me by John Legend or an Ed Sheeran song that I can't remember the name of right now LOL

View Quoted Comment We are using this as well. Love it!
