What are your first songs or first songs you've heard other people use?

scorpgirl1120 · February 2012

I say you should do In My Life. It's the song you really want and who cares how fast or slow it is! I'm having You Make Me Smile by Uncle Kracker. It's a little faster than a traditional but it describes our relationship.

Ours is The Luckiest by Ben Folds- We LOVE him, so there wasn't even any discussion about what our song would be

And for the record, I really like the Willie version- Elvis is nice, but Willie sounds like he means it ;p

Our was "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds. Our runner-up choice was "First Day of My Life" by Bright Eyes (loooove that one too).

Pammie76 · February 2012

Ours is "Thank you for loving me" by Bon Jovi .. I am big Bon Jovi fan and we are having our wedding at the Jersey Shore so it totally fit the bill

Our first dance/song was "Lucky" by Mraz/Caillait. We also considered "1, 2, 3, 4" by the Plain White T's and "Can't Take My Eyes off of You" by Frankie Valli. The last song is truly my favorite but we wanted something a little more modern.

Marry Me by Train.

Pixieliddle23 · February 2012

Ours is "Only you can love me this way" by Keith Urban

Queen Jane · February 2012

We used "Lay it Down Slow" by Spiritualized with Ryan Adams "Wonderwall" at a close second. If you like Elvis, check out "Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space" also by spiritualized. It has parts of "can't help falling in love with you" in it, it's very pretty, unused it for my bridal march. There are 2 versions, but here's a snippet off of YouTube, the Elvis lyrics start about a minute and a half in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JM6uaJRvdRg&feature=youtube_gdata_player

junebabymia · February 2012

Our is "Dont wanna miss a thing" aerosmith! had it picked out for 3 years now

ChristineNB · February 2012

We haven't decided for sure, but he knows that I'm in love with Allison Krauss' "When you say nothing at all," and he has said he would be fine with that as our first song. Not sure how easy it would be to dance too though.

We danced to "Thank You" by Led Zepplin.

emmily429 · February 2012

"Everything" by Michael Buble. :-)

gundy21 · February 2012

"Nice and Easy" by Frank Sinatra - great upbeat tempo for a foxtrot and the lyrics were just too perfect for us.

aloisk57 · February 2012

Let's Stay Together by Al Green! It came on the radio one day and we both looked at eachother and were like YUP! That's it!

pokey730 · February 2012

Ours is Amos Lee- Sweet Pea. Lee DeWyze- Brooklyn Bridge was a close second.

I Will Follow You Into the Dark or Stay Young, Go Dancing

Both by Death Cab For Cutie and are clickable if you want to check them out.

emily.goble · February 2012

Our first dance is to "Smile" by Uncle Kraker. Our DJ is editing the song to add sound bytes from the interviews that they're doing with each of us so that it becomes our "Love Story".

I really like the Willie Nelson version too

OliveOilsMom · February 2012

Our first song will be "I Only Have Eyes for You" by The Flamingos.

My FI and his mom are a huge Elvis fans, so they are dancing to "The Wonder of You". Other Elvis songs are "When I First Saw Your Face", "I Can't Help Falling In Love" and "Memories

My daughter and her husband used "Yellow" by Coldplay. It was beautiful.
