I don't want it to be cheesy as our 1st dance, althought it does have lots of meaning behind it.

I love this song so much...it can literally bring me to tears almost every time. I know that's silly but it does.....our wedding date is my late grandfather's birthday (who I was very close to) and Somewhere Over the Rainbow is a song he used to sing to me when I was little, so that's what I want to walk down the aisle to. It's kind of my little tribute to him since he's no longer with us and can't be there

If it means something special to you, I don't think it would be cheesy at all.

My FI and I are huge fans of Journey. Our first dance is going to be When You Love a Women. When he was picking out my engagement ring this song was playing in the store. Too perfect, meant to be I guess

I'm pretty sure we will be dancing to "You're Still the One" by Shania Twain - although we are totally not country fans, it's always been our song. And we've been together 12 years already so it's kind of fitting!

I was thinking about doing something different and fun like this couple: YouTube - Wedding Dance First As A Couple FUNNY Baby Got Back

 

baby got back!

ours is "My favorite Book" by Stars. we are going to get dancing lessons for it though cause the tempo changes and i have no idea how we would dance to it.

 

we've been together for almost 11 years now and it is just so fitting for us. plus i happen to [LOVE] Stars too!!
