First dance song - opinions needed

Hi! I'm looking for our first dance song. I wanted something a little different but still great. I LOVE "The Way You Are" by Bruno Mars. I wanted our introduction to lead into our first dance and I thought this song would fit so nicely, especially how it starts. It's a fun song, and we'd need to take some dance classes just to make sure we know how to move :) But what do you guys think of the song choice? It's sung from the man's perspective, so I was wondering if that makes it not "fit".

Would love your opinions! Thanks!

    I think its a very sweet song!  I wouldn't worry about it being sung from the male perspective since most songs are written that way (from either the guy or girl's POV).  The song we used for our first dance is from the guy's POV and it didn't seem weird at all.

    If you and your fiance like it I say go for it!

    Well, it would be from your fiance's perspective, then, no?

    LOL true. I guess I thought that because I was the one picking the song. But he likes it, too and should be fun to choreograph a nice dance to it. Thanks :)

    Yeah that's a great song. My FI and I have chosen a song that has a guy and girl sing in it. It's called "when God made you" by newsong.  But not a lot of songs are like that!

    We are thinking about using "These arms of mine" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqVrNK4uiB4)or "I've Been Loving you"  (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqaOp7sIy0w&feature=related) by Otis Redding. Both of these songs were on the disk that was playing in the car right after he proposed.
