    Cancel. I wanted something that would make my husband happy and bring back happy memories. He was so damn nervous on our wedding day.

    I would be fine with this, but I'm using the same song my aunt used in her wedding (Lost in this Moment, Big and Rich). It's more sentimental and means a lot more to me.

    My sister insisted we not have Wagner played at our wedding for that reason. I’m not overly fond of him, so it’s no great sacrifice but we’ll definitely just pick another song.

    Cancel, we have special and specific songs we chose that we want for everything. Our playlists are full of songs we both enjoy and they are songs that we relate to each other.
