    First dance - Citizen Cope "sideways"
    last dance - Led Zepplin "Stairway to Heaven"
    garter removal/toss - NFL Football theme
    bouquet toss - Single Ladies (i know this is not very original, but I think it will get the ladies attention/they will know what's going on)
    cake cutting - Ray Lamontange "You are the Best Thing"

    Edit- forgot father/daughter - mother/son dance: That's how strong my love is by Otis Redding. Took for ever to figure out that one because I wanted to combine for both of us and I really didn't want to do anything I'd heard before... a bonus, it's a short song too!
