Those special songs

What have all of you picked for your bigger special songs

What are you walking down the aisle to?
First Dance?
Father/Daughter?
Mother/Son?
Anniversary Song?
Last Dance?

We are still deciding on a few but are set on a few.

I will be walking down the aisle to: I have and always will by David Barnes
First Dance: Better Together by Jack Johnson
Father/Daughter: Walk with You by Edwin McCain (Just found this song today and it brought me to tears and I knew it was the one!)
Mother/Son: Totally clueless on this one
Anniversary Song: We toyed with the idea of I wanna grow old with you by Adam Sandler, but we're still unsure.
Last Dance: We had thought about Hey Jude because it was the last song played at all of our high school dances and proms so its kind of a tradtiion in a weird way, but it doesn't really send the messege we want.

Are any of you doing any other special dances?

We are getting married on my granfather's birthday and he will be 64 so we will play the classic "When I'm 64" by the Beatles and have a special birthday cake for him to about mid way through the reception.  My birthday is thier anniversary so it's kinda of cute/neat.

    I love that Micheal Buble song, and I thought about that but Fi thinks it's cheesy.  I've heard the song "then" it's a really great song!
