Wedding song suggestions?

FI and I are in the process of thinking of wedding songs.  We need a first dance song, which we thought about "At Last" but not sure yet and we need all the other stuff (cake cutting, garter, etc).  For the entrance songs our bridal party loves "boogie shoes" which we want to do but want to remix it with "Let's groove tonight" or other songs like that but not sure..."Boogie Shoes" is a short song.

Any suggestions for good first dance songs?

 TIA
 

Re: Wedding song suggestions?

  • We used Sade, "By Your Side"....love that song!
  • Aww, I love that song too!!!
  • We danced to Brian Adams "Please forgive me". ?I still smile when I hear the song!
  • We danced to Let's Stay Together by Al Green.  Our cake cutting song was "pour some sugar on me".
  • Our wedding song was "If I should fall behind" by Bruce.  Cake cutting we did Adam Sandlers "grow old with you..."

  • We used Taylor Swift's "Our Song" for our cake cutting.  It obviously had nothing to do with cake but it was sweet and fun and I had to hear it.

  • Our cake cutting song was "Love and Marriage" the theme from Married w/ children. It got some laughs
  • Our cake cutting song was "when i'm 64" by the beetles. ?I'm not much of a beetles fan, so I think that was the title!
  • Our first dance song was "Thank you for loving me" by Bon Jovi.  I'm a die-hard Jersey girl and I had to incorporate Bon Jovi into my wedding somehow :-)  Our cake cutting was "The Sweetest Thing" by U2.

  • These were ours...

    FIrst Dance: At last actually. The words were perfect because we were engaged for a long time before getting married

    I cant seem to remember the other songs I used sorry

  • Entrances: Parents- Jammin' (Bob Marley), BP- Jam On It, us- It Takes Two (Rob Base).... I don't think any of which are popular choices, but they are unexpected songs that were a perfit fit for us.

    1st dance: Lovely Tonight by Joshua Radin

    F/D: She Walks with Me (Micheal W. Smith)

    Anniversary: Follow You Follow Me (Genesis)

    Cake: How Sweet It Is

    No garter or bouquet toss.

     

  • Our First Dance song was "Rose of my Heart" by Johnny Cash. We thought the lyrics were perfect and I LOVE Johnny Cash's voice.

    I also like James Taylor's Something in the Way She Moves. 

    For the cake we did the song from the Wedding Singer, too. 

    F/D: Landslide by Fleetwood Mac

    M/S: Simple Man by Lynryd Skynryd


  • First Dance: All My Roads by Collin Raye

    Entrance: Then He Kissed Me for parents/ Crazy Train by Ozzy for BP

    Cake Cutting: Sugar, Sugar by The Archies

    Bouquet Toss: Don't Stop Believin by Journey

    Garter: Can't Touch This for removal, Girls by Beastie Boys for toss, Oh Yeah (from Ferris Bueller) for putting it on the girl

     

     

    I'm pretty sure it's pronounced your mom's a moron and if you didn't have your name legally changed by the age of 22, so are you. Unless you're from another continent. -Groomz

    Entrance: AC/DC Have a Drink On Me for BP, for us Beatles, All You Need is Love
