Retro and Vintage Weddings

elvis :)

okay my entire love of vintage all started with elvis. My second word as a kid was elvis no joke. My love came from my mom. So I have to play a few of his songs. I only really like his earlier music when he was soo good looking :) But I was thinking of I cant help falling in love with you for dancing with our kids too. We plan to have fi dance with our daughter 2 and me with our son 5. Do you think this song is inappriette for that or okay? Will you play anything from the king?

oh here is the lyrics

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you

Re: elvis :)

  • So sweet! I think it would be great to play that with your kids. If I were a guest at your wedding it would definitely bring a tear to my eye.

    I run two record stores and I listen to every kind of music imaginable. I've never been one to read into lyrics and say this doesn't fit because of this verse, and so on. I think music is meant to bring out an emotion and it allows you to connect with that emotion. i.e. people snarl when a couple chooses Lou Reed's "Perfect Day" as their first dance song because it was written about a drug addiction. Hello! It still is a song about love even if it's about loving drugs. Music is made for everyone. Don't think twice if you love a song! (sorry, this turned into a little bit of a rant) :D

    Oh, and I love the name Elvis! I want to name my first son Elvis, but FI is so against it. Maybe I can sneak it in as a middle name!

    I'll definitely be playing an elvis song or two because my aunt is a HUGE HUGE fan. 

    I think that song is perfect for dancing with your kids.  It would definitely be a tear jerker!
