Our first dance song..

I like the song, I find it very romantic =) And dont over stress so much about your first dance, just have fun with it and about the song youll know is the right song when you listen to it =)

Personally, I've always liked that song. And honestly, it doesn't really matter. I've gone to youtube and typed in "wedding first dance" and got everything from "I like big butts" to "I've had the time of my life"--complete with the whole Dirty Dancing routine and all. You make that first dance anything you want it to be. As long as the two of you like it, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.

Thanks to Rhaiza and Shannon.. i really appreciate your feedback. We are def. going to do a slow dance song.. there is no way we have enough rhythm and guts to do a dance routine, tho that would be hilarious

I really love the song ..and it makes me wanna sway and swish around hanging onto my man..and thats why i thought it'd make a good song for us to dance to. DH and I have such different and diverse tastes in music ..he'd probably prefer some crazy 80's song..and it's just not my thing. I'm trying to appease both our tastes.. its harder than I thought.. LOL

I will also email my DJ..if anyone knows some really great first dance songs, it'd be someone in the biz! We aren't doing mom/son and dad/daughter dances, so we want our dance to be short, sweet and reflect US.

Any other first dance songs that aren't country or rap are welcome!!

How about this.. what is YOUR first dance song going to be??

Were doing " You are the best Thing" by Ray Lamontogue (SP)

'everlong' by the foo fighters. the acoustic version. They are our favorite band.

Our first dance is going to be "L.O.V.E" by Nat King Cole =)

We are doing a country song (Johnny and June by Heidi Newfield)

But other non-country suggestions and more "classic songs":

John Hiatt, Have a Little Faith in Me

Etta James, At Last

The Righteous Brothers, Unchained Melody

Ben E. King, Stand by Me

Nat King Cole, L-O-V-E

My suggestion is take your time. You're still 6 months away from your wedding and music will change between now and then. You might be sitting at dinner some time between now and then and all of a sudden you might hear the perfect song.

If you still don't have a clue 1 month before your wedding, get your DJ involved. He should be able to make some great suggestions after speaking with you and your DH.

Good luck!

I heart Otis! This is a great song.. :>)

Were using "better today" by coffey anderson. hes a christian singer, whos not that big yet, but its such an amazing song... fh and i both had tears in our eyes after we heard it. not gonna lie... we had tears cuz one of our friends already claimed it. but he wasnt even engaged yet so were using it! hey theyre getting married like 2 years or more after us so who cares! its THAT good

"And I wanna hear your voice in the morning when I rise

I think I know I'm just a normal man, only made of sand except when you're by my side

Will you love me, teach me, don't leave me I pray

And when I, and I'm thinking of the times

Your hands in mine, together we will stay

You made me better today

Better than I was before

And now my heart can rest and I will search no more

You made me better today"
