Your first dance Song........?

Posted on Planning 46

I was just wondering what types of songs everyone has chosen for their first dance? I'll be wearing a deep red dress and was thinking about using Lady In Red by Chris De Burgh. Or should I choose something more traditional? What do you think and what songs have you decided on?

    We had Songbird - the All Angels version. Our guests were in tears, particularly our mums!! Bless [:'(]

    Another one we liked was Shes the One by Robbie Williams, it's the final song on our wedding photo dvd slideshow and we used our first dance song for the ceremony shots on the dvd.

    we had shania twain, your still the one but thats cos it was "our" song My DH got it for me when it first came out and told me it was our song and that was about 10 years before our wedding day. So we didnt need to choose one.

    Ooh, ooh, we're having this as our last dance - I'll be blubbing I don't know about anyone else. I do love a bit of Francis Albert!!

    To OP, have you tried looking out for what was in the charts when you got together? Google could well be your friend

    Have just googled for what was Number One on the day we got together and thought it was a great suggestion until I found out.....

    ....Can We Fix It by Bob The Builder.......

    Perhaps not.......so I thought I would try the US number one as we got together whilst living in New York.

    Again perhaps not........Independant Woman by Destinys Child!!!!!

    Back to our comedy first dance then.....incidently New York New York will be our last dance!!!!!! In a big drunken circle with all our pals....

    We still can't think of one - we have a lot of choices of eras as we've been together 3 times in total, first time in the 80's as teenagers, then for a year or so in the 90's and finally ended up back together in 2002 til now!

    I want Green Eyes by Coldplay as it reminds me of when we were first together this time round and H2B has green eyes. Not sure whether it has any meaning for him though so may end up with a cheesy 80's track and be all nostalgic ?.

    We are having wave by Sylvian and Fripp.

    Pretty unknown but the lyrics are really beautiful.
