[QUOTE]Were using a song by our favorite band, <strong>Alkaline trio, super small band no one has ever heard of</strong> :) lol but he proposed on New Years Eve and we went to see them in Chicago. :) They dont have many love songs, so it was easy to pick what one we wanted! :)

You can add me to this list, they are pretty good!

We are dancing to "It's your love" by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill for our first dance song. It was the first song we danced to as a couple many years ago.

FI and I originally were going to dance to Brad Paisley "Then" but his first choice has always been Kenny Chesney "You and Me" and after listening to it more, I just feel it fits us best... I love it and I get teary eyed listening to it

MMMmmmm Anberlin and Alkaline Trio

I saw Anberlin only once but it was back in 2005-2006, when they were just starting to play the bigger "intimate venues" if that makes sense.  They killed it and I have a few of their cds.

Alkaline Trio...ohmyfreakinggosh do I love them in their sexy little black suits.  I've seen them 3-4 times I believe.  I love how stoic they are and they pretty much just ignore the crowd, lol.  It's refreshing after seeing so many punk rock bands that interact a little TOO much haha.

Thanks Ladies, these are all great suggestions!  I'm going to youtube them all now and listen to them

Hey, I've heard of them! If you listen to alternative you probably have. Which song??

We're using Christina Perri's "A Thousand Years." I really like it and FI does as well. We're using the instrumental version for the wedding party processional.

We were originally thinking Elvis Presley "Can't Help Falling In Love" but FI didn't love it, and I went with it because it was easy. Now we're using the instrumental version for my processional.

I say just start checking out songs on YouTube!
