Whats your Wedding Song?

[fhtpdw20]

I always thought "We Go On" from Illuminations would make a perfect wedding song:

With the stillness of the night
there comes a time to understand
to reach out and touch tomorrow
take the future in our hand
We can see a new horizon
built on all that we have done
and our dreams begin another
thousand circles 'round the sun

We go on
to the joy and through the tears
We go on
to discover new frontiers
Moving on
with the current of the years

We go on
moving forward, now as one
Moving on
with a spirit born to run
Ever on
with each rising sun
To a new day
We go on
We go on

Ours was "Unchained Melody" by the Righteous Brothers. When DH and I first started dating, the song was popular because of the movie Ghost.

same here!!

We didn't have a traditional wedding so no first dance, but we would have gone with "Don't Wanna Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith.

We eloped but I walked down the aisle to Something by the Beatles done by the Vitamin String Quartet.

I always thought I Want You Around by the Ramones was simple and sweet, but had I done a real wedding I probably would have danced to First Day by Bright Eyes, I swear the most romantic song ever

Green Eyes by Coldplay is another good one.

I hope you don't mind if I join in... I too was going to post this same topic as we are getting married next month and have yet to pick our first dance song...


DF told me to pick a few and we would listen to them and then make a decision...I love At last, and Unforgettable....So I will be looking forward to all the others that have been used also.....

We're getting married later this year, but we've picked "Songbird" by Eva Cassidy (Fleetwood Mac also does it, but I like Eva's version better...found it from the Love Actually soundtrack.)

We were pretty set on "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds...then I *really* listened to the song, and it's a little on the creepy side. And once I got that thought in my head...well, that was the end of that. (It's the bit about him being 50 years older than her and would he know if she rode by on her bike.)

Our was "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" by Isreal Kamakawiwo.

Whats your wedding song and how did you pick it?

We are trying to pick out our first dance song and we are having trouble..here's our contenders:

Can't Help Falling in Love~ Elvis Presley
Amazed~ Lonestar
Everything I do, I Do it for You ~ Bryan Adams (its almost 7 minutes long though! LoL)
This I swear~ Nick Lachey
Glory of Love~ Peter Cetera

Well, we were married 17yrs ago and our song was "Faithfully" by Journey. But if I were to get married now.....I would DEFINATELY choose Amazed by Lonestar. That is by far my most favorite song. Absolutely beautiful!!!!

Love Song by the Cure. Love hearing it come on the radio now and telling our kids it was our wedding song!

The Cure is one of my favorite groups, and DFi likes this song because it's upbeat. We want to make this our first dance, but there's one problem - neither of us can dance! We've tried and we look like idiots. Arthur Murray, here we come...

Love Song by the Cure. Love hearing it come on the radio now and telling our kids it was our wedding song!

We also danced to The Cure. But we chose "Halo" instead of "Love Song."

Ours was When You Say Nothing at All by Allison Krauss. DH is a man of few words, and it just really fits us.

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

Always and Forever - Heatwave

THE STYLISTICS
"Betcha By Golly, Wow"
(Thom Bell and Linda Creed)

There's a spark of magic in your eyes
Candyland appears each time you smile
Never thought that fairy tales came true
But they come true when I'm near you
You're a genie in disguise
Full of wonder and surprise

And betcha by golly, wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for forever
And ever will my love for you keep growin' strong
Keep growin' strong

If I could I'd catch a falling star
To shine on you so I'll know where you are
Order rainbows in your favorite shade
To show I love you, thinking of you
Write your name across the sky
Anything you ask I'll try, `cause

Betcha by golly, wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for forever
And ever will my love for you keep growin' strong
Keep growin' strong

Betcha by golly, wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for forever
And ever will my love for you keep growin' strong
Keep growin' strong

Betcha by golly, wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for forever
And ever will my love for you

"Bless the Broken Road" By Rascal Flatts. Neither one of us is a country fan but when I heard this song on a tv show, I knew that it would be our wedding song.

It wasn't our "wedding song" but, my brother sang it during our wedding. Love that song!

We didn't have a wedding song...no dancing.

If I were do choose one now, it would possibly be "Only You" (many versions out there) or the waltz song that's played in "Enchanted" movie. (Can't recall the title right now).

Cruisin' Gwyneth Paltrow & Huey Lewis

We picked this because we moved all over the county for the first couple years we were together.

 

[krcit]

Love this thread. Already listed mine(There's No way by Alabama) but my cousin had You're My Home by Billy Joel.....perfect for a military couple and such a great song. Wish I knew how to post a link, lol.

Love Song by the Cure. Love hearing it come on the radio now and telling our kids it was our wedding song!

DF and I are considering that song, but we would use the 311 version. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egX9ZDaIrkU)

The other ones we're considering are an acoustic version of Incubus' "Stellar" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xyu29Q-K0LU), and "Dig" by Incubus, as well (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMsZ6wkZWhA). DF and I are both huge Incubus fans, and one of our first dates was to their concert, so we're trying to settle on one of their songs if we can.
