    We're having the parents walk in to "Simple Gifts" and the BMs walk in to "Canon in D"

    -first dance song: Higher; John Legend

    -walk down the aisle song: Canon in D; piano

    -walk together up the aisle song: Viva La Vida; piano

    -grand entrance song: Hells Bells; AC/DC

    -and father/daughter dance song: I don't remember. My step-dad picked it. Maybe Rascal Flatts? And for my bio dad, I picked Isn't She Lovely because it's generic. I really didn't like the parent dances. It was Awkward City.

    First dance song- the way you look tonight- maroon 5 version
    down the aisle- Canon in D
    Walk together- Um, Ode to Joy I think
    Entrance- Ain't Love a Kick in the Head- Dean Martin
    Father/daughter-  I'm blanking on this right now. 

    I guess some of ours were cheesy typical ones, but I really wanted to walk to Canon in D.  Nobody could convince me otherwise.
