What Was Your Wedding Song and Why?

[kathymc]

First dance - Beautiful in my eyes - actually the first song hubby and I ever danced to - still dance everytime we hear it (I mentioned it here a long time ago and thats how I got my tag!)

Last dance - I had the time of my life (from Dirty Dancing) I LOVE the movie and it was the time of our life! (and we had a lot of fun dancing to it too!)

"Thank You" by Led Zeppelin. We didn't have a special song when dating. This song came on the radio a few months before our wedding and we both loved the lyrics so we chose it for our first song!

"I Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore" by REO Speedwagon.

We chose it for two reasons.

1) It chronicles VERY much how our relationship came to be. We were friends first for many years, and were very much resistant of the urges we felt towards one another. After my divorce from the ex, DH made his move and BAMMO...bliss...

2) We TOTALLY wanted to pick a song so cheesy only velveeta could top it, since most wedding dance songs are cheesy (face it...they all are). We were hysterical laughing through the whole dance. DH hates dancing so much and everybody thought "oh look! He's so happy dancing, it must be because of her!" Nope, we had our own private joke going on.

DH and I couldn't think of any song we really wanted that was dance-able. He finally chose Journey's "Faithfully" Not my favorite song, but it was something he liked.

For the wedding party, we chose John Michael Montgomery's "I swear"

For my dad, I chose Josh Groban's "You raise me up"

DH's mother died several years ago, and he wanted to dance with one of her closest friends, so he had a really hard time finding something that was ok. He ended up with Jodi Messina's "Ride around the sun"
