Would people make fun of this as a first dance song

MrsSkinner2be, 2 April, 2013 at 21:27 Posted on Planning 0 29

So me and H2B met at work years ago and were very good friends. Sadly I first met him about 3 months before I was due to get married and near to my wedding I was thinking to myself "I wish I'd met you years ago" to cut a long story short I got married and divorced 4 years later. Stayed friends with H2B throughout that time.

About 6 months after I split with my ex I told H2B how I felt about him and he said he had always felt the same and was just upset as he thought he'd never have a chance to be with me as I was married.

Sooo we've been looking at first dance songs and the song by The Honeyz called Finally Found has SUCH perfect words to tell our story but am worried people will be like "You had The Honeyz as your first dance song?!" ?

What do people think?

    I don’t know who the honeyz are tbh and if anyone mocks you for choosing it (which I highly doubt they would - it’s your friends and family) tell them to p*ss off, and at least you chose something original and personal instead of overused drivel.

    I think have whatever you both like and don't worry what anyone else thinks!!! There's always going to be someone that doesn't like ur choice somewhere - in my opinion anything goes as long as you both like it!

    I dont know the song, but its really special to you two, so as long as you both want it, and enjoy dancing to it, then thats all that counts. I would think most people would like that its origianl, and special to the two of you x

    I have never heard of them. If you and your OH like the song, that's all that matters. If I was attending a wedding of a friend or relative, I would never make fun of their choice of song, and I would hope your guests wouldn't either.

    If it's a song that's personal to you then who cares what others think? My in-laws (to be) had that dance song - no limit as their first dance x

    You'd better learn since you're seeing them later this year! ?

    I think it's fine OP - first dance songs are supposed to be personal.

    Musical taste is very personal so if the song means something to your than go for it!

    and OB please tell me you are not too young to remember the Honeyz?

    You should have the song you both want. You want something memorable and something that means a lot. If this song tells your story then I'm sure your friends and family will enjoy the song and it's meaning too.

    I have no idea who the Honeyz are. I have no idea what that song is. Neither of these things matters.

    However.

    I DO think first dances should be somewhat obvious to at least the couple themselves. I don't really get the 'searching for a song' thing. Apologies if I've misunderstood the process here.

    What do you and your Boy dance to when you're hammered and having a living room rave up?

    Hi,

    We always tell our brides and grooms to have whatever song they want, it's your wedding!

    The Honeyz have beautiful harmonies so just get lost in that moment!

    We've seen everything from Damien Rice to PJ & Duncan!

    Have a great day.

    James.

    Just a bit of background - The Honeyz were a girlband (trio) fro the UK back in the 90's and are currently on a tv show called the big reunion along with some other bands from when I was a teenager.

    Here are the lyrics to finally found - it's a ballad and OH likes it too cos of the words rather than the sexy ladies! Ha ha

    Ooh ooh ooh

    I can't believe you're here with me
    And now it seems my world's complete
    And I never want this moment to end
    I close my eyes and still I see
    My dreams become reality
    And now I know how it feels to be in love
    I prayed so many nights that you would come my way
    An angel from above to light my darkest day
    I think it's time for you to hear these lines
    'Cos there's something I want to say

    I finally found what I've been looking for
    And now you know I'm going to love you more
    Hold me tight 'cos it's always been you
    (It's always been you)
    To think that you were always there (always there)
    To be my friend and wipe away my tears
    Now it's clear that it's always been you

    Sometimes you don't expect that friends
    Can become lovers in the end
    Only God knows what the future will bring
    So hold me close and don't let go
    'Cos this is love boy, don't you know?
    And we're gonna be together for eternity
    I prayed so many nights that you would come my way
    An angel from above to light my darkest day
    A love so strong it can't be wrong
    It's with you that I belong

    I finally found what I've been looking for (finally found)
    And now you know I'm going to love you more
    Hold me tight 'cos it's always been you
    (It's always been you)
    To think that you were always there ( you were always there)
    To be my friend and wipe away my tears
    Now it's clear that it's always been you (you)

    (This time) this time
    I'm gonna make sure it turns out right
    I wanna be your everything and by your side
    For the rest of my life
    (This love)
    This love feels the way that love should be
    Look in my eyes and realise there's no disguise
    'Cos I'm in love with you

    I finally found what I've been looking for
    And now you know I'm going to love you more
    Hold me tight 'cos it's always been you
    To think that you were always there (you were always there)
    To be my friend and wipe away my tears
    (Wipe away my tears)
    Now it's clear that it's always been you
    (It's always been you)

    I finally found what I've been looking for (I finally found)
    And now you know I'm going to love you more
    Hold (oh) me tight 'cos it's always been you
    (It's always been you)
    To think that you were always there (don't you know?)
    To be my friend and wipe away my tears (oh baby)
    Now it's clear that it's always been you
    (Always been you, yeah yeah)

    I finally found what I've been looking for (I finally found it)
    And now you know I'm going to love you more
    (Yeah, I finally found it)
    Hold me tight 'cos it's always been you
    (It's always been you oh)
    To think that you were always there (what I been looking for)
    To be my friend and wipe away my tears
    (What I been looking for)
    Now it's clear that it's always been you
    (Always always)

    Go for it!

    I don't think I know the song (although I probably would when if I heard it) but it's all about you two so you want a song which means something to you.

    Such a cute story about you two as well, just goes to show that sometimes you have to wait a little while to get the best from life!! ?

    ANYONE who makes fun of someone on their wedding day for something they have chosen in earnest is a massive JERK. That is all.

    Have whatever you like, love.

    Ha ha sorry! Go an youtube it so you get it out of your head after a listen!

    Thing is me and H2B are known as the couple who don't dance and me especially I never dance - only time recently was at my sisters wedding after I'd had a few drinks. I'm incredibly self concious when it comes to dancing so I think this is a good song to shuffle to (although we will do some practicing so it's not an awful shuffle!)

    I know that song! Smiley smile I think if it's important to you then go for it - and to be honest, how many people are going to remember it besides you and your close family? I don't remember what either of my best friend's had as their first dance, even though I remember watching it happen and enjoying it at the time. It's you two that are going to have the clearest memories of the day, so make it something that makes you happy.

    I guess it depends on the person, I remember the dresses and how they looked perfectly, but I couldn't tell you what we ate or what music was played ?
