More - Usher

Final Countdown (beginning portion) - Europe

Bride & Groom First Dance (Before dinner, after dinner?)
We did our first dance right after we were announced

Does your bridal party join the first dance?
Nope.  We did not have any wedding party dance.  We kept all spotlight dances to a minimum because we found them to be boring to watch.

When to do father daughter dance? (Before dinner, after dinner?)
Did the father/daughter dance right after our first dance was done.

Father Daughter Dance:
My Wish - Rascal Flatts

Mother Son Dance:
With Arms Wide Open - Creed

Dinner Music Style:
Again, we didn't really discuss.  Just had nice background music.

Cake Cutting Song:
Didn't have one.  We didn't know we were going to cut the cake until about 5 minutes before it happened.  We at first didn't want to but after a few drinks thought it would be fun!

Last Dance Song:
Again, no idea.  But if I did it differently I would do Last Dance - Donna Summer

Something classical and lovely, non intrusive 

Processional Bridal Party (Song):
What a Wonderful World (instrumental)

Processional Bride (song):
Somewhere Over the Rainbow (instrumental)

Not sure yet. We'd like the Beatles but I doubt the priest will sign off on it. (Yes, I know we're bad Catholics for having secular music for the first two. Priest already okayed it though) 

Cocktail Music Style:
Something the guests can talk above, again non intrusive. Love PP's use of movie scores though. Harry Potter, Last of the Mohicans, Independence Day would all be amazing. Hmmm....

Cake Cutting Song:
No cake, no bouquet, no garter
