I wanted to start a light-hearted post, as I can see a lot of you are having a stressful time atm. Oh dear, what I have to look forward to! Even though I'm nowhere near wedding stage yet, himself and I have always said that our first dance would be to 'our' song - In Your Arms by The Last Goodnight....

(Btw, if you haven't heard it- it's not very well known- and you've the time, Youtube it, it's beautiful.)

What's everyone else's going to be?

    We're having "Secret Smile" by Semisonic, it's "our song" as we say, in our first few months together (over 9 years ago) we saw them live at our uni summer ball!

    Some good choices here girls! I love the Take That songs too so I'm trying to fit them in somewhere during the day.

    Think we're going to have Kissing You (Instrumental version) from Romeo and Juliet, it's always kinda been our song. I do love 'Feels like home' though so might have to get that in somewhere too. First remembering hearing it when i watched The Notebook.

    Our song is Mel C - Never be the same again. But i can't find a version i like without lefteye doing her rap bit in the middle.

    If not we like Westlife - flying without wings and Faith Hill there you'll be, but we can't decide if it's more of a funeral song. Any thoughts?

    I like 'there you'll be' too, i suppose you can think of it as a song about having grown old together and looking back on memories, rather than its link to the Pearl Habour film.

    Well i guess that's quite suitable, although we aren't that old yet ha ha, but we will have been together nearly 11 and a half years by the time we tie the knot

    You do know that Secret Smile is about a woman's private parts?

    Some fab choices here!

    having dance with my father again as the first song played in memory of my dad who passed away 4 months ago Smiley sad then to pick the mood up, our official first dance will be "grow old with you" it's the one from the wedding singer - really funny one and sums us up to a t!

    on entry to the ceremony i'm having Bruno Mars just the way you are, then on the way out the Carpenters "we've only just begun"

    I suggested "your song" sang by Ellie Goulding to my OH. I don't normally like cover songs but the way she sings it is just beautiful.

    Aecy- love your choice, that's brill and a unique choice!

    We're having incubus 'echo'.... we were both listening to this album on the bus/ train home from our first date and this song is beautiful and i love the lyrics... youtube it if you dont know it!

    I would love take that greatest day somewhere in our day as i love it, although OH is not a fan (may walk down the isle together to this one). We will probably end the night with somthing heavy (more than likely Linkin park as we were at a gig when he proposed).

    I think we're having Queen "You're my best friend".

    I wanted a bit of Buble because I love him but OH put his foot down ? I suppose that's fair as it's our first dance- not just mine

    I love "kiss me" and "greatest day" ideas from other hitchers though.....oooh decisions!

    To be honest, we're not sure if we're having a first dance at all, but if we do it'll be to The Power of Love by Huey Lewis and the News ?
