so with our wedding pretty much fast approaching we have yet to agree on a first dance song! me and h2b have completely different tastes in music he wants diana ross! im not quite fancying any of her music although i know its just a song and its over within a few minutes this is one thing i feel i should choose, this is the first disagreement weve had too lol x

I think it should be a song that means something to you. Is there not a song that you sing to each other/listen to together/reminds you of your first date etc?
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
is just to love and be loved in return
CommentAuthorMrsX2b
Spend the night in dancing to parts of songs lol and see which one you both feel comfortable with. Thats what i think il have to do as its such a hard choice, If my h2b picked it, I bet It would be something like jz or nas lol.

i had the same problem! but just as i was beginning to lose all hope we found one! Its an unknown artist to us both, as we spent many a nights listening to out playlists and couldn't come up with anything that we agreed on. In the end we found ours through a movie we watched together. The song came on and we was both like " This is a great song!"
I hope you find one, but it was definitely one of the hardest things ever.
We both love Avenged Sevenfold - Dear God, but the song goes on really really long, and we're not confident slow dancers, we both feel silly. So we wanted a song that wasn't too long or too short. In the end we went with Goo Goo Dolls - Iris. We also like Metallica - Nothing Else Matters, but again a long song, with a really long intro, so we're thinking that should be the walk in to the ceremony song as i walk down the aisle. As for the Father Daughter dance, well me and my Dad are a bit mad, and want to do Psy - Gangnam Style haha :D It's whats special and unique to you, think about timings and practice :D xx

We're having Elvis Presley - The Wonder of You - its words are lovely, we both like Elvis and its not as long as modern songs which is good as we dont 'do' slow dancing.
We also happened across a song for ceremony while watching a fav film of ours. Sometimes hear songs in adverts that are nice. Look everywhere!

I have picked a few songs which me and my fiancé like and they seem appropriate for the occasion but I just want a few other ideas and out of the ones ive picked I don't know which to have to walk down the aisle and which one to have as our fist dance? I was thinking bruno mars - just the way you are (acoustic version) to walk down the aisle and christina perri - a thousand years as our first dance. I also want modern songs, any opinions would be great, thanks in advance x
Heres what I was thinking -
leona lewis - a moment like this bruno mars - just the way you are edwin mccain - i'll be christina perri - a thousand years bruno mars - just the way you are acoustic snow patrol - chasing cars

My best friend had I'm Yours - Jason Mraz
Not too slow or too fast good to have a boogie to :)
CommentAuthorTotallyLovedUp
We aren't having a first dance. Neither of us liked the idea of it, because we aren't too . I don't want to say serious because that isn't really the right word, but we like to have fun, so we are having a first bounce (we are having a bouncy castle suitable for adults and kids because we want a family vibe....and we are big kids :p lol) We are doing it to DJ Sammy Heaven though the fast version and I will be walking down the aisle to the slow version so it kind of ties in together :)
If I let James choose guaranteed I won't like it x

We're dancing to Ronans when you say nothing at all as this is the first song we ever danced to which is quite luck as the lyrics are lovely x
CommentAuthornadia13
We pick a load of songs we liked each, shorted listed them then the last five we dance to, to see how we felt wiv them. However we did pick 'elvis' can't help falling in love ( brought tears to my eyes) but then one day we were playing the killers in the car and I just changed my mind to their song human!! Human was on the short list & we always said that b our first dance plus hubby was having second thoughts from elvis.... I felt like the first dance was the start of the disco and it felt right ( I know human isn't a lovely dovely song but we love it) then at our Vegas wedding the bloke dressed as elvis song can't help falling in love any how so it was our first dance at our second wedding lol

we havnt even discussed this yet, my friend had coldplay yellow and it was so different but the lyrics are beautiful and everyone loved it :)
CommentAuthorValentinaK
Seal-kissed by a rose... but am not 100% on it...bets compromise so far and we have shaken on it! The songs that mean something to us aren't really wedding appropriate (not rude) just a little bit not right if you think about the lyrics... and so we're not having them!
And we lived happily ever after!
CommentAuthorangel830609
