Is "Everlong" by the Foo Fighters an appropriate first dance song choice? My fiance and I are disagreeing on many other choices that are "more traditional". We both like this as a choice. MY other top picks are "Something" by the Beatles, "Chasing Cars' by Snow Patrol, or "Ain't Nothing 'Bout You" by Brooks and Dunn... I would like something unique.

    I think it's perfectly acceptable. It's about what you two want. It's the only "first dance" you're going to have.


    All that being said, my FI and I are using a song by The Used so I may be a little biased in support.

    I say its your day do what you want! People will prob appreciate the originality of watching you dance to a song they haven't heard 1000 times at weddings. The acoustic version is a great idea!

    I think "Everlong" is a great song choice.  I am also using an acoustic version of a rock song when I walk down the isle - Def Leppard's "Hysteria".

    That's the song we are using for our first dance, acoustic too :-)  The wedding party is also walking down the aisle to Sweet Child O' Mine, but a strings version

    I absolutely love this song! I think that its a fantastic idea. We are thinking about playing the acoustic version when we walk back down the isle together after our ceremony.

    Amazing song! My cousin had this as his wedding song.... little hard to slow dance to, but you can wing it.

    We are doing Everlong for our first dance!! My dad and I will dance to Nothing Else Matters by Metallica.. I almost went with a Changes cover by Ozzy and Kelly-  where she says she loves her daddy... but I didn't think I could make it through that without crying. ha
