I like Happy Together by the Turtles, Something Changed by Pulp, Don't Stop Me Now by Queen and ideally we'd like some Metallica or Iron Maiden but can't find anything suitable (already using a few elsewhere) We do have a few months to change our minds though...
The day before we marry and I think we have finally agreed on 'I just want to dance with you' by The Beatles. Its short, quite lively and my OH has always loved the Beatles so Im happy to oblige.
We cant make our minds up. At 1st it was unforgettable by nat king cole now we are thinking of "love on top" by Beyonce as I love it or Marry You by the Glee version. We do no that before the end of the 1st dance we want the Fast food song" (you know the one "a pizza hut, a pizza hut etc') mixing in as its a running joke we live off fast food cause i dont really cook lol. Plus we are planning and getting all the little BM to join us to do the dance.
We're being greedy and having 2 - we met dancing, so we're having the Michael Buble version of Sway for a 'proper' dance, and then a choice of 2 for our 'slow' dance; we've got a live Jazz band, so if they can do Etta James' 'At Last' then we're having that, but if they can't, we're having Eric Clapton's 'Wonderful Tonight' which is 'our' song. A 3rd option for our slow song is Eva Cassidy's 'Songbird' as we were dancing to that when I realised I had fallen in love with OH ❤️
Groove Armada At the River, its our song since V festival Stafford years ago, my 1st festival they were amazing and we slow danced to this felt like it was just us and them playing.
We're having a fairly obscure one. It's been our song since the beginning & it's very wedding-y

Bryan Adams - I'll always be right there
We're having Nothing Else Matters by Metallica- although our band are doing their take on it and shortening it a little as its a bit long for a first dance. We've always known it will be this, its been "our song" since about 3 months into our relationship.
We're having Take That - Rule the World. We were orginally having our song - Snow Patrol Chasing Cars but OH suggested we rethink as the lyrics weren't too upbeat lol think Take That now meets that criteria lol.
Thought I would stick ours on as well! We are having 'Tell me when it's time (to say I love you)' by Greenday. Its from the musical version but we love it, being fans together.
The musical is touring the UK this year but none of the dates match anytime we could go, and none of them had two seats together!!
Again its a bit different from the normal and may change when we realise its not simple to dance to lol. We have learnt to waltz and as my Oh doesnt dance at all I wanted to show off that he could and do a waltz, so currently our dance plans stand at: First dance, followed by a waltz which my dad and his mum gatecrash and finish off with us, followed by a jive which my dad wants to do with me, but that might have to wait until later!
We are having either:- I wont let you go by James Morrison, I'm yours by Jason M'raz (love this one but think it may be a bit boppy) or something from Luther Vandross (my absolute favourite singer of all time)
