September 2015 Weddings

Let's talk music!

So...with just 58 days to go (!!!!!), we have finally decided on the music we are using for the ceremony and dances.  The bridesmaids are walking down to the theme from Ice Castles, I am walking down to "Beauty and the Beast" by Jim Brickman, and the recessional will be "All We Ever Find" by Tim McGraw starting at the first chorus.

For the dances, we are doing our first dance to "Soulmates" by Josh Turner, my dad and I are using "My Little Girl" by Tim McGraw, and FI and his mother are dancing to "My Wish" by Rascal Flatts.  What have you guys considered or what have you decided to use?  Happy Planning Everyone!!!

    Love is the ultimate superpower.

    I hear ya!  I've been agonizing over this from the beginning!  The only thing that came easily was our first dance.  There was no question about what song it would be.  But everything else was awfully tricky.
  • We are still working things out some, but I think we're going to use is "Love Your Love the Most" by Eric Church for me and my MOH's walk in (silly to use 2 songs for only 2 of us), and "Run" by George Strait for our dance.  Still deciding on what we will do for the mother's dance (my dad has passed away and so I will dance with my mom when FI dances with his mom), but I think "My Wish" is a top contender.
