Retro song for first dance?

PhenomenalNina · March 2012

Hello Ladies,

I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what song to dance to? The mothers are walking down the aisle to "At Last" by Etta James, which was originally our song. But now I'm stuck! What are you all dancing to???

What kind of retro are you looking for? Is there an era that you would like to evoke, or do you just want an oldie? We danced to Josh Groban's "When You Say You Love Me." Not really retro, but not what anyone would call modern sounding music. My dad and I danced to Sinatra's "The Way You Look Tonight".

As Time Goes By by Jimmy Durante. The Dooley Wilson version was too slow to dance to.

We also considered It had to be You and were looking at versions by Frank Sinatra or Ella Fitzgerald or Nat King Cole and the Unforgettable duet by Natalie and Nat King Cole.

L.O.V.E. by Nat King Cole is our song.

For our wedding we didn't do dancing, but we used the songs "Settle Down" by Kimbra http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHV04eSGzAA&ob=av2e and "Something Borrowed, Something Blue" by Georgia Fields http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSrIyGELfFk

Modern artists, but have that retro feel.

Ours was not a retro song, but had that feel. We danced to "Dance Me to the End of Love" by Leonard Cohen.

Are you wanting a retro song or a vintage song? From your description it sounds like you want a vintage song, but not sure.
