Songs....??

I know a lot of you ladies aren't doing a garter/bouquet toss, but we are. I think if I didn't I would be strung up!!  Plus it really doesn't bother me to do it.  I have a lot more single ladies and men than I realized when I added in my FI family & friends. LOL!

For the bouquet toss, using "Single Ladies" by Beyonce

Any ideas for the garter toss?

Re: Songs....??

  • Another one bites the dust for the garter? LOVE IT!

    I think 'single ladies' is a bit cliche (but I also just HATE the song so I'm biased...)

  • I am also using "Single Ladies" for my bouquet toss.. yes it's definitely cliche.. but it fits perfectly with the event of the single ladies getting up to catch the bouquet in hopes that their man "will like it and put a ring on it" haha..

    As for the garter toss.. it depends on your crowd.. if you have older people in the crowd who could get offended easily.. "Another one bites the dust" as pp mentioned is a great idea or "Hot Legs" by Rod Stewart. But if your crowd will cheer and cat call loudly, you could go with songs like:

    "Bootylicious" by Destinys Child
    "Thong Song" by Sisqo
    "Sexy Lady" by Shaggy
    "Diirty" by Christina Aguilera
    "Hot in Heeere" by Nelly
  • My husband chose "Oh Yeah" by Yello for the garter toss.  I also used Single Ladies for the bouquet.  It's fun, I didn't care if it was cliche or not.
  • I forgot to add "Sexyback" by Justin Timberlake for the garter toss ;0)
  • Another One Bites the Dust, Bad Boys, Bad to the Bone, The Boys Are Back in Town.

    If you want a funny one, I have been to weddings where they played "Man I feel like a woman" during the garter toss.
  • Yeah, I know Single Ladies is cliche, but I love it. 
    My FI has no clue, lol, I probably have the least planning FI on here.  Basically, as long as I keep him out of pink he's game for anything.  He is happy if we get married in the back yard in blue jeans.  I'm going to compile a list and have him pick with me. This includes our first dance song too.

    For the father-daughter dance, I'm leaning toward Tim McGraw's My Little Girl

    My crowd is a mix of young and old, but I think as long as it doesn't get too racey we'll be ok. 

    I love the idea of Man I feel like a Woman, but I know that one would get shot down by FI!
    Ones going on the list so far:

    Another One BItes the Dust ... Queen
    Dirty ... Christina Aguilera
    Sexy Back... Justin Timberlake
    Hot in Here ... Nelly


    Keep them coming!
