  I REALLY like In My Life. I was thinking of that for my first dance, but I'm going with something different instead. I might still use it for the recessional. I like how it's short, less than 3 minutes!! That's something I looked for when choosing a first dance song. I don't want to be awkwardly dancing alone (or with our wedding party) for 5 or 6 minutes!

  I LOVE falling slowly, but to me it is a song about a failing relationship that is at a "do or die" fork in the road.

  I love In My Life and Wild Horses. I can say Wild Horses is one of my favorite songs but for some reason when I hear it I just never think wedding.

  I love 'In my Life', we were considering that as our first dance song, but we've actually chosen 'Bridge Over Troubled Water'. 

  
  

  Other suggestions (trying to base it off of your taste from the songs you listed):

  
  

  'You are the Best Thing', Ray LaMontagne

  'On a Night Like This', David Barnes

  @Heather - at the weddings I've been to (and what we plan to do) the DJ/Band invites everyone on to the dance floor after the first 2 min or so of the couple solo dancing. So you don't have to be dancing alone if you don't want to!
