Let me start out by saying that I have been an enormous goo goo dolls fan for the last 10 years. I got to check seeing them in concert off my bucket list last year with my fiance and the 14 year old inside of me was ecstatic haha
anyway... so i've been trying so hard to pick a first dance song (finding it to be one of the most challenging part of wedding planning). i've tried to stay away from the goo goo dolls because they are more 90's alternative rock/not everyone's style. although my fav song in the whole world is iris and i cry everytime I hear it.
Both fiance and I struggled with depression and have come from tough backgrounds and can relate to the message of the song (not feeling like the world understands you but having that one person who does).
Listened to iris again today and was overwhelmed with emotion.
soo....is it too sad and emotional and should i pick something more cutesy and awe inspiring or go with my gut?
