    Our first dance song is by Bart Crow Band and it is "All I Need"

    I am walking down the aisle to "Canon in D?!" I think that's what it is called?

    I keep changing my mind but currently:

    First Dance will probably end up being Michael Franti's "Say Hey (I love you)"

    Down the Aisle to Vitamin String Quartet covering Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody"
    ~DFWs Resident Snark~
    I'm not so good with the advice... Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

    Our first dance was "Who I Am" by Wade Bowen

    I walked down the aisle to the traditional wedding march, played on piano.

    Funny story:  The rest of my music was recorded.  At the rehearsal, I couldn't find the CD to practice with - it was lost in the truck.  When I found it the next morning, someone took it to the church, and it didn't work.  So, we re-burned it, and the songs were in the reverse order, so the parents/grandparents entrance, bridal party entrance, unity candle, and recessional were all mixed up... but it made me laugh.  At least my entrance was correct, right?!?

    First Dance - "Everything" by Michael Buble

    Walked down the aisle to - Palchelbel's "Canon in D", I wanted to use "Yellow" by VSQ but my dad convinced me to go more the traditional route. I had the wedding party go to "Yellow" instead.

    I really wanted The Luckiest for our first dance but it is too long.  Great idea walking down the aisle to it though!  And yeah, I love to see what everyone is using.

    Stephanie - There was no question that I'd be walking down the aisle to The Luckiest but it is long.  I had a friend shorten it and take out the verse about being born at different times.  Worked out great and unless you know the song, you couldn't tell when the editing happened.


    Bobbileigh - I love Ray - he is soooo full of soul.  This song is also long so we had it shortened a bit too since DH doesn't like a lot of attention.  ;)
