Wedding Songs

[Stormy Lancer]

I have been a wedding Dj for ten years and the best two songs I have ever heard for the first dance are as follows:

- We got Tonight by Bob Segar

- Lost Together by Blue Rodeo


Maybe it was the couples but they stuck out as very orignal and very fitting.

our wedding DJ was awesome. I gave him a list of songs that he could not play and he followed it to the letter. Here are some on the no play list:

I knew the Bride
Bird Dance
YMCA
anything by Abba
Macarena

[Dan02]

This was the one we used last year, seems to be rather unlucky seeing as the marriage only lasted 8 months.

That would be The Dan Band.

And I have told my g/f that this will be one of our songs at the wedding:

I always loved Give a little bit by Supertramp..I tried to talk my son into using it this september but his wife to be thought it was too fast

Our first dance was "Making Memories of Us" by Keith Urban. Our last dance was "Lost Together" by Blue Rodeo.

My Dad and I danced to "I Hope you Dance" by Leean Womack. It was a tear-jerker for sure.

Noooooo!! They are definitely cheesy, but so fun for everyone. I vote for keeping those on the playlist.

How about the Divinyl's I touch myself because as many men know you'll be doing a lot of that after your married.

Love stinks

Edge of a broken heart - Vixen

I'm gonna knock you out.

[troutman]

Is This Love? - Bob Marley

Let's Get It On - Marvin Gaye

Blue Danube Waltz - Strauss

Mrs. Robinson - Simon & Garfunkel (really good if the groom is named Robinson)

Big Day - XTC

[Ford Prefect]

This is my favourite first dance/wedding song:







Kudos to AvsJerk for suggesting In Spite Of Ourselves ... larf. It's probably a better anniversary song though.

This is the day-- The The

[The Goon]

Our first song last year was the acoustic version of Bruce Springsteen's "If I Should Fall Behind", the lyrics of which read like wedding vows. A bit long, but people really were taken by the lyrics.

We also had Doc Walker's "Rocket Girl" as the second song, as our first date was at a Doc Walker concert some years ago.

Thanks for all the input everyone. Most of these are all songs I wouldn't have thought of.
