    We are having 'I'll Follow You' by Shinedown, I went to see them at Download this year and left my album in OH's car by mistake and he listened to it and thought it was perfect.

    We're having Little Things by 1 Direction, it's the perfect song for the OH & I. From the second we heard it years ago we knew it would be our first dance. One of the MoH's (We have 3, my fiancee has 2- she is greedy :) and I have 1) is singing our first dance and we're asking her to change the lyrics slightly in the 2nd verse so it fits us more perfectly that it already does :)

    My OH actually picked our first dance song. We are having Big Mountain - Baby I love your way.

    I like it as it is not a common first dance song. I think some of his mates will expect a funny dance from him as he is known for his 'Gangnam style' dance but we will be taking a slow sway ha x

    We weren't gonna have a first dance but been listening to some of my Dad's music lately and found "Out of the Blue" by The Band. I love it. MOH and I split a couple of times in our early years so the lyrics really fit. Just have to persuade him to dance now.

    We had Photograph b0yc3 av3nu3 ... we've always liked the song but we agreed it reflected the year we've had since the car accident, loosing my granda and Simons mum having a stroke. It was lovely and a nice time to reflect on everything that's happened and what we have. Simons mum even had a dance (had to be very much supported by Simons dad as she's still paralysed down her left side) this made him cry and a lot of our guests

    We can't decide on our first dance at all, which is strange because the song for father/daughter dance was so easy.
    Our options at the minute are
    1. She's Everything by Brad Paisley
    2. Only You by Yazoo (which is a song we both love but can't quite figure out how to dance to it)
    3. Earth Angel by Marvin Berry (from Back to the Future) followed by You Never Can Tell by Chuck Berry (from Pulp Fiction)

    Each one is completely different and we still haven't a clue which one to go for!

    I'm walking down the aisle to the wedding march but my bridesmaids are going to walk down to the instrumental of 'believe' from the polar express. It is a Christmas wedding after all.

    First dance we really want Beyoncé Crazy in love but don't know how we could dance to that cos the other half isn't a dancer at all!!

    We couldn't decide between Can't Help Falling In Love - Elvis Presley or Seat Next To You - Bon Jovi. With everything going on we forgot about it until 10 minutes before we were due to dance! So we chose by flipping a coin

    We need a few songs! One to walk down the isle / signing of reg / walking back up / cake cut / first dance!

    We have 2 out of 5 atm!

    Dj sammy heaven for walking up
    James arthur say you wont let go for the first dance - its new but its so fitting with how we met!

    Just need 3 more upbeat songs for the rest!
