Perhaps not traditionally romantic but I love it so..

My Juvenile
Bjork
Volta

That 'Hoppipolla' song is lovely - as is Simply Red's 'For Your Babies,' so that can also go on the playlist, I think.

Not perhaps 'epic' but very romantic;
Divine Idylle
Vanessa Paradis
Divine Idylle



Horribly rough translation of the lyrics by me:
In hopeless longing,
on two fragile wings,
I found you
divine idyll*
the love that began
on an ethereal breath
my madness, my desire, my obsession, my divine idyll

I stole you a quill
to write out a poem,
by the light of the moon**
my ideal companion
My ideal man
like a fatal wound
my madness, my desire, my obsession, my divine idyll

My heart rides upon the waves
and madness stalks my dreams
my heart's on fire,
sparks igniting me from your eyes
my madness, my desire, my obsession, my divine idyll

My French isn't what it used to be.

*I don't really know how to translate this word, I assume she means like 'idyllic' rather than 'ideal' so that's the way I've done it.
**The original lyric is 'au clair de la lune' which I assume is a play on the nursery rhyme

Westlife- "Flying without Wings"
This is a little obvious, but come on...I think I'll play it at my wedding. There's a bunch of WL songs you could choose, "My Love" or a slightly lesser known one "Written in the Stars"

Busted-"Crashed the Wedding"!!!!!
This song is only allowed if the bride and the groom have a sense of humor.

Diamond Rio- "That's How Your Love Makes Me Feel"
This is country, so I know people won't like it, but it's really cute and bouncy and talks about ice cream.

Looking at these, they're not so normal...less of the slow dance songs than the ones you play after that!

well the one i reli want for my dance is Shania Twain - From This Moment.
But i think a good movie one would be Faith Hill-There You'll Be, and it was used in Pearl Harbor lol

Although I have spent most of my movie going career avoiding such films (give me Takeshi Miike anyday!) may I suggest 'The One' (I think that's the title) by Elton John.

Or perhaps 'Bedshaped' (the Vittorio Grigolo version preferably!) or 'Groovey Kind Of Love' by Phil Collins.

Personally, if I was to ever get married (providing that I can actually find someone daft enough to actually take me on!) I want 'Wonderboy' by Tenacious D for my wedding march! ;-)

I prefer the Sigur Ros one, sorry - that version takes away all the epicness (if thats a word) from the song. go and stand in the middle of nowhere in iceland... you'll see which works best!

before i was cruelly heartbroken - I wanted 'gravity' by embrace played at my wedding, either that or i wanted to walk into the room to diana ross' 'im coming out' - dont think i was entirely serious about that one..

i would def (altho its unlikey that i'd get married) want something that is not 'expected'. I like the song 'everything under the sun' by a band called common rotation, but i'd be in two minds to use it as no one would know it bar about 1 person i know.

Actually, altho no one really seemed to like Melanie C's second album, I always loved the title track 'Reason' - simple piano track that was honest and beautful.

can we have a topic on funeral music too :P i've got loads for that!

I always come off as a 'serious' music fan on these.

Radiohead - 'True Love Waits'

Or mebbe 'Such Great Heights' by The Postal Service.

'Mon participation and swoony music.

I am married. I am a Scotsman who married an English lady and she walked down the aisle to "English Rose" by The Jam.

Made perfect sense to us as I used to be in the Army and she sent me this song while I was away on tour.

The lyrics were just perfect for us.

Mine and my partners first dance is going to be
Leona Lewis
A moment like this
This is our song and we had our first dance to it on our first newyear together

well i like a good melody and even tho marriage is a far thought from my mind but i would like to play Eva cassidys feilds of gold.

We had two wedding songs...At Last - Etta James and The Best is Yet to Come - Frank Sinatra.

Both were perfectly fitting for a fantastic day and would be great in a movie.

Me and my Husband had our first dance to westlife's unbreakable, the words are sooooo perfect for any couple,

My wedding song would be:

Stay with You- John Legend
God Only Knows- Beach Boys

but most probably

Such Great Heights- but by Iron and Wine not Postal Service....if you havent heard it its worth a listen.

It would definately be always by blink.
The song talks about a couple in love but it also talks about their arguements and adventures.
