    Have you asked your FMIL for preferences? There might be a song from when your FI was a kid that meant a lot to her at the time that would work. 


    ETA: I love "Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6tV11acSRk

    In this case, the Sheryl Crow version might be appropriate.

    I don't know what my fiance will dance to, but my brother and my mom danced to Paul Simon's  Loves Me Like a Rock at his wedding.  They both had so much fun and it was a real crowd pleaser too.  :)

    No, I haven't asked her, just because he told me not to lol. He's afraid she's going to pick "American Soldier" by Toby Keith, which he would absolutely dread. But, I may hint around if she has any songs that she liked which remind her of his childhood without necessarily mentioning it's for their dance. Those song suggestions were very good though! Thanks to the both of you!

    My Fiance and MIL will probably be dancing to 'Never Alone' by Lady Antebellum. Check it out.. I think it's also really fitting for military guys!  Love love love this song!

    FI picked "You'll be in my heart" by Phil Collins.  Its actually the theme from the Tarzan movie.  She really likes Phil Collins (FI was named after him), and its a nice song.  Kinda longer than he wanted though so we are having the DJ shorten it a little.

    I like that Phil Collins song! I'll have to share that one with him. He finally came to the conclusion that he probably won't be able to surprise her & will just have to let her help pick one she likes too! lol I'll tell him about that & the never alone song!
