Mrs.LuraT · September 2010

Oh, and special music...

for the last dance, I really wanted "time to say goodbye" sung by Sara Brightman and Andreas Bocceli...we danced surrounded in a circle by the remaining guests and it looks great on our wedding video.

JayElleJayCee · September 2010

I have no friggin clue yet!! hehe. Although I have to incorporate "I Say A Little Prayer For You" the FI and I sing it to each other constantly! hehe.

Ms.BriarRose · September 2010

I had these set in stone, but seeing all your suggestions, now i am thinking about whether they should stay or go! I also included other songs we considered, in case other girls need some songs to think of!

Reception entrance (Bridal party): Yeah! by Usher

Reception entrance (Bride/groom): Down by Jay Sean

First dance: Then by Brad Paisley

Father/bride dance: Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle
We also looked at:
I loved her first (Heartland)
Cinderella (Steven Curtis Chapman)
My Little Girl (Tim McGraw)
Let them be little (Billy Dean/Lonestar; I prefer the Billy Dean one)
It won't be like this for long (Darius Rucker)

Mother/groom dance: Find Your Wings by Mark Harris (also works well for Father/Daughter Dance; especially good one for relationships that might not be as deep as others)

Cake cutting: Sugar Sugar

Bouquet toss: Single ladies by Beyonce

Garter toss: Mission Impossible Theme Song (we are doing a little act with the garter, lol!)

Any other special song choices: ANYTHING by Michael Jackson or Journey, anything 80's is pretty much okay, a bunch of country songs (we love Country!), and dance songs.

I think we need to add in some slow ones...any suggestions??

Ooh I'm good with slow songs!

I haven't picked any of my music yet (still have 9 months! But I work in a music industry, so music is my jam)

My short list for good wedding slow songs at the moment:

"Make You Feel My Love" by Adele, "Can't Get Enough of Your Love" by Barry White, "You Are My Home" by Billy Joel, "Haven't Met You Yet" by Michael Buble, "Electric Twist" or "Blow Away" by A Fine Frenzy, "Bless the Broken Road" by Rascal Flatts, "Come Away With Me" by Norah Jones

Adele's "Make You Feel My Love" I think is brilliant. She's British... and fabulous. She really slowed it down, and I think it's the perfect song to play at a wedding.

Mattsbride10 · September 2010

Off the top of my head...Wonderful tonight Eric Clapton, Kiss from a rose Seal, and Falling in Love Elvis. I'm using the UB40 version.
