First dance song ideas
If Michael Buble or Nat King Cole aren’t on your playlists, chances are you may be looking for a first-dance song that’s a little less traditional for your wedding reception.
Couples considering a song that’s a little different and speaks to them but won’t necessarily offend the wedding purists in attendance, might want to consider the following tunes:
“All I Want is You” (U2)
“Amazing” (Aerosmith)
“Crash” (Dave Matthews Band)
“Crazy for You” (Adele)
“Faster” (Matt Nathanson)
“For You I Will” (Monica)
“Here Without You” (3 Doors Down)
“Kiss Me” (Sixpence None the Richer)
“I’ll Stand by You” (The Pretenders)
“Love Song” (The Cure)
“No One” (Alicia Keys)
“Nothing Compares to You” (Sinead O’Connor)
“Suga Suga” (Baby Bash)
“Without You” (Rent Soundtrack)
“You Want to Make a Memory” (Bon Jovi)

Our song will be either Then by Brad Paisley or only you can love me this way by keith urban 
Fiance is a huge brad paisley fan and so we are having troubles picking sides

Our song is Long Trip Alone by Dierks Bentley. When my fiance and I had only been dating for a month that song came on his ipod and he looked at me and said “One day we are going to get married. And this is going to be our song.” And now here we are 4 years later

For our wedding song its still a toss-up of which one were going to have first. Most likey our first one will be ‘ A Thousand Years ‘ by christina perri, just because its relates to my fiance and I so much, because we went to high school together and I had such a big crush on him, and then 4-5 years later we got together and now 8-9 years later we are getting married. The second one with the wedding party is going to be ‘ God gave me you ‘ By Blake Shelton, again because its such a great song, and works for us. Just love the both of them !

We have chosen Bless the Broken Road by Rascal Flatts. They are my favourite country band and it is one of my favourite songs of all time. He does not like country very much but he does like this song to and he knows how much I love the song.
Krystle
Great songs!
amanda holt
anything that speaks to whom the bride and groom are!
Lo-Anne Chang
Our song will probably be “Dream” by the Everly Brothers. When we were first friends, we had a random conversation about “old songs” from our parents’ time and we both really liked this song, and thought it was cool that someone other than ourselves knew of its existence.

We are having a movie themed wedding so we are doing a medley of classic movie songs, along with the dance for it. For example, my fiancee will start with the famous Risky Business scene where tom cruise dances in his underwear (no my fiancee will not be in his underwear) and so on. We will finish with wanna grow old with you from the wedding singer.
Janine Kraft
We’re thinking Bryan Adams- Heaven for our first dance. Haven’t quite decided on it completely but we’re leaning towards it
