First Dance Songs ( :

Augustwedding13, 16 February, 2013 at 20:19 Posted on Planning 0 27

Hello Everyone,

Was just wondering what every ones first dance song is? I already know what we are having, but we are having a pianist play throughout wedding breakfast and he has asked us for a list of songs he would like us to play so just thought for ideas!

Thanks xxxx

    It was a no brainer for us. Such Great Heights by Postal Service. But we aren't sure whether to have the original (electronicy, faster and shorter) or the Iron and Wine version (acoustic, long and with his amazing voice).

    I think we are having I won't let you go by James Morrison (if I can convince OH) or something by Luther V (who I've always loved)

    Here's a list of popular First Dance songs:- http://www.jmfdisco.co.uk/blog/wedding-first-dance-songs.html - which is most probably not what your lianist is looking for - maybe get a list from him and choose the ones you like.

    We are either having a slow, piano version of Next To Me by Emeli Sande as we were slow dancing to her album when he proposed. Or Thank You by Led Zeppelin as we both love it and the lyrics mean a lot to both of us.

    Not having one! We don't really have a 'song' and the idea of shuffling around on the dancefloor like a couple of teenagers at a school disco leaves us both pretty cold...

    Problem solved! ?

    Yep, I'm not sure we're having one either for the same reason! We may end up doing something comedy instead...

    We're having 'something changed' by Pulp....can't dance to it really and we both tend to do a bit of a bum wiggle to the beat at a certain point but the words are great and it makes us giggle :-)

    We've been trying to decide this for months...I want slow n soppy and meaningful and OH wants meaningful but upbeat. So we're doing half slow...possibly to boyzone's 'everyday I love you' then changing to 'I haven't stopped dancing yet' by Gonzales for a comedy effect sort of dance. Not sure how it will go but must compromise and so we now have the best of both worlds! :-/

    It took me a while to get my OH to agree but we're having Take That - Greatest Day. Partly because I love them but also because the lyrics are very appropriate!
