Hey Carrie,

I think your song should be something thats special to you and your partner.

2 fav songs of mine are Unchained Melody and You look wonderful Tonight.

Good Luck on your special day and have fun =)

Hi Carrie

I am also struggling to decide on the song for my first dance but Me and You by Kenny Chesney is one that keeps popping up. Have a listen and see what you think!

Hi Carrie,

How about These Arms of Mine by Ottis Redding, cool and classy tune.

I hope you enjoy your special day and have a fantastic marriage and life together.

Chris (Durham) x

Carrie,

I think you should have Eric Clapton "Wonderful Tonight". What an uber tune, I'll bet you a quid there is not a dry eye in the house!

All the best,

Matt

carrie is lovely,x x

Heya Carrie:

how about "I say a little Prayer" by Arethra Franklin. It's a bit upbeat, but 'Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart!' awesome lyrics!!!

Charles

How about Billy Joel's "Just the way you are". Wonderful slow dance. Nice words. No practice required. Good Luck and all the best to you both.

hi carrie

me and my wife had Lonestar "Amazed"
and we are still going strong now.

all the best from us all listening at TrussForm Midlands(stafford)

How about Michael Buble's Everything. It's a beautiful song. The words probably say it all!

For our wedding day (nearly 10 years ago!) we had Paul Weller's you do something to me.

Aretha Franklins I Say a Little Prayer is also a nice one,

Good luck with it all!!

hi carrie may i suggest journey s open arms heres a verse from it so now i come to you with open arms nothing to hide believe what i say all the best for ur day lisa

What about something classic like 'Ev'ry time we say goodbye' by Ella Fitzgerald or 'Someone to Watch Over Me' by Sinatra - you'll never 'outgrow' the song, and they're great for reluctant dancers - a bit of slow swaying will see you through! What ever you choose, enjoy it, as if you're like us, it'll probably the first time you've had to cuddle all day!

As a first dance, tiny dancer by elton john is a really nice song.It is quite long but that gives other guests a chance to join in with you guys on the dancefloor. I agree on a comment made by jordan (comment 25), my dad played the song I loved her first by heartland during his speech at my sisters wedding. It pretty much sums up all the things that a father could say about his daughter to his future son in law. If you were to have a father daughter dance this should be the one. Just listen to the lyrics..they are beautiful. Good luck with the wedding plans.xx

You should have a song that means something to you. When I got married, we had 'Unchained Melody' by The Righteous Brothers because our first date was to see Ghost at the cinema (Tacky song though!) We also had 'Something Changed' by Pulp because of the words and it was one of our favourite songs. On a lighter note - my friend had 'Trapped' by Colonel Abrahams. LOL

Don't laugh one of my mates actually had The Smiths 'Heaven knows I'm miserable Know' as their first dance.

Not surprisingly they split up after a year!!

Sometimes you can't make it on your own - U2. We had this at our wedding in May last year, the lyrics are lovely, and had the right sentiment for us.

Plus, it would make Dom happy, I think!

Whatever you choose, have a great day and a wonderful life together.

Saz, Nottingham

How about: -

"Heaven know's I'm miserable now!" by The Smiths!

What about: Forever In My Life or
Friend, Lover, Sister, Mother/Wife
by Prince?

Hi Carrie,

I think you should take a listen to Bryan Adams "HEAVEN". I had that for my wedding song in Dec 98, everytime I listen to the words I still get goose bumps..... there are plenty of versions on you tube.

I hope you have a lovely day, enjoy every minute because the day goes by so fast.

best wishes Diane

Me and my wife to be are having Jack Johnson 'Better Together'.

You should listen to the lyrics, they are just right for a wedding dance.

Rob

I am having the same problem with my other half. He wants "Lets get it on" but there is no way. We have narrowed it down to 2 songs either Jack Johnson "Better Together" or Etta James "At last" which will make my friends laugh but i love the song. I've been to 12 weddings the past year so we are trying to find something not cheesy and thats not been done

how about the song 'Colorful' by the 'Verve Pipe'. Beautiful song!

can't you have the 1st half of the song you want the the last half of the song Major Tom wants ???

Carrie

how about "You're the one that i want" apt
cheesy but if you cant be chessy on your wedding day when can you
congrats have you plumped for a date yet?

'anyone else but you' by the moldy peaches. Watching 'juno' helps you see how sweet it is. Good luck with the wedding! Xx

Amazed by Lonestar

"I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I want to spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby, I'm amazed by you "

goo goo dolls IRIS!! amazing =D

We had 'Songbird' by Eva Cassidy because Love Actually is one of our favourite films.
We walked out of church to 'I'm gonna be (500 miles)' by the Proclaimers which rocks!

Hey,

Have a listen to Blowers Daughter by Damien Rice. Thought that might work?

Good luck for the wedding!

I had two wedding songs when I got married in the Carribean - They were:
Beegees - Wedding Day and
Dido - Thank you

Hi Carrie,

I was thinking you could do him a little dance to "" by Al Wilson!

John Legend - Stay with you

Hi Carrie

We had "Romeo and Juliet" by Dire Staits at our wedding which was something a bit different to everyone else at that time, who all had blummin' "Love Is all around" by Wet Wet Wet! That was 1994, and 14 years and 3 kids later, we're still together.

Mind you, Lonestars "AMAZED" keeps popping up, and it IS a great sloppy tune!

Have a fabulous day xxx

What about "Girl, you'll be a woman soon" by Urge Overkill off the Pulp Fiction Soundtrack!

My friend had 'I'm not in love' by 10CC and they have just celebrated their Silver Wedding!!

We got married recently, and our first dance was to 'Stand by Me' by Ben E King, which reduced my nan to tears! We debated between this and Van Morrison's 'Have I Told You Lately' for a long time, but chose this one because it has always been one of our favourites.

Hello Carrie,
I dont have a good idea for your first dance, but if you are going to have a father daughter dance you should give this song a listen: I Loved Her First by Heartland. Its country but its really good.

Hi Carrie,
It's got to be Shania Twain ( from this moment on ) or ( your still the one ) all depending on how long you have been together,or ( you've got a way ), listen to them in the bath and make up your own mind but i thought they were all nice. all the best for the big day, hope Chris has a shave lol love Beth xxx

"Burning Love" by Elvis

"What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong

Some advice for your first dance.....
If you are going to learn a routine don't leave it until 3 weeks before the big day!,
If your having a band make sure they can play your song at the sme tempo you have learned to dance to!

Mistakes my husband and I made when learning to foxtrot to Harry Connick Jnr "It had to be you" and which lead to our first marital dispute! But hey we look back and laugh.

I am having Lonestar's Amazed, the lyrics say everything i feel for my boyfriend.

What about "You better, You Bet" by The Who

My friends had 'Miracle' by the Foo Fighters, which was really sweet and a nice change from the traditional cringeworthy ones.

Carrie, we had Snow Patrol Chasing Cars for our song in December 2006. It was so perfect to dance to and makes all our friends and us cry every time we hear it (still). It made a really memorable moment in the day.

What ever you choose I hope you have a wonderful wedding and best wishes for the future.

Use the track that Scott and Charlene had in Neighbours, what a classic!

Hey Carrie,

We had Lonestar's 'Amazed' as our first dance in November. Really worked for us and the lyrics seemed perfect.

Good luck - I'm sure that whatever you choose will be right for you both on the day.

All the Best,
John

We had k-ci and jo-jo, tell me its real. A beautiful song.

Hi Carrie

We had Lonestar 'Amazed' the words are really beautiful. Or if you want to do something a bit different how about Barry White, 'First, Last, My Everything' you could do a bit of a dance routine with it, that would be good fun for you and your guests.

You can't beat Van Morrison for a romantic wedding 1st dance. We had 'someone like you' and my hubby whose a bit of a hard man, who didnt know which song I chose, cried on our first dance. Though whether it was tears of joy or saddness, who knows?!! Good luck Carrie xx

My husband and I got the inspiration for our first dance from our favourite film... High Fidelity. Jack Black sings 'Lets get it on' and we chose that because it was something different. Perhaps if you both have 'a film' you can be inspired by that like we were...?

On the other hand - one of the most memorable (and funniest) first dances I have seen is on You Tube (type in first dance baby got back and you'll see what I mean - if you haven't already!).

Good Luck either way

Leanne :oD x

Hi Carrie.

Its a tough decision to make because for years afterwards people will always still ask what was your first dance.

For the lyrics it has to be 'From this moment' by Shania Twain. I'm sure it was written for this occassion

"...I give my hand to you with all my heart, I can't wait to live my life with you I can't wait to start...."

Good luck x

I think one of the loveliest 1st dances at a wedding is Shania Twain - from this moment. The words are perfect - "....i give my hand to you with all my heart, i can't wait to live my life with you, i can't wait to start..."

Hi Carrie,
To continue the Major Tom theme but on a more romantic note, how about David Bowie's "Absolute Beginner"? I think it's one of the sweetest songs ever and I've secretly decided to have it at my wedding!

Good luck with the wedding :)

Carrie, how about 'It Had To Be You' by Harry Connick Jnr? Cool, classic and easy to dance to!

Good luck!

I am having the same dilemma..we are getting married and can't decide on the right type of song, but I would love Have a told you lately by Van Morrison

Hi
I found it really hard to pick and song for our wedding we eventually decided on lonestar .... amazed and for for a second song we had bryan adams everything i do i do it for you ..... hope its helpful xxx

Hi Carrie

We had to decide between, Already There and Amazed by Lonestar for our first dance.

We choose Amazed in the end as Already There just reminded us of when Paul was in Iraq and made us emotional for other reasons and not for happy reasons.

Whatever you both decide it will be wonderful.

Just to be nosy just wandered if your having the full military bit, Paul got married in his mess kit looked great.

Good Luck both of you

Sue

When I got married in the summer we had 'Come Away With Me' by Norah Jones and danced a waltz.

We had Elvis and 'Can't help falling in love with you'. Also toyed with the idea of Thank you by Dido. Depending on your guests, we thought about going for something really off the wall like 'the Timewarp' or 'macarana' to try and get everybody up dancing, or Blurs Song2 to but didn't think it would go down so well with the older family members!

You could go for 'In the army now' - but I guess everybody has said that!

How about Highway to the Danger Zone from the Top Gun Soundtrack?

it absolutly has to be SPACE PIRATES!!!

Hiya,

How about Green Eyes by Coldplay?

Great song!

Good luck for the big day!

xx

Hey Carrie,

I totally understand what its like trying to choose a song that you both want, it took my husband and I absolutley ages to decide but in the end we went for Rod Stewart "your in my heart". It turned out to be a cracking choice we danced on our own for the first verse then everyone joined in! just perfect!

Hi Carrie,

Go to YouTube, and look up 'Wedding Baby Got Back' - You and Captain Underpants should start rehearsing this!!!

Hi carrie,

We had Universe and You by KT Tunstall - its an album track and summed up everything perfectly.

Good Luck for you big day.
x

for my wedding in September, we had Sade, "By your side" as our first dance song.....it was either have that or Berlin, "take my breath away"! We made the right choice though, touching without being too cheesy. xx

Hi Carrie, could I suggest "Let there be love" by the mighty Oasis, different but great. It was my first dance at my Wedding to my beautiful wife Sian and everybody loved it :-) Loving the show listen everyday and have done since day 1

Hi Carrie,

For my wedding, it was "Everyday I Love You" by Boyzone, but I also used these songs throughout the dinner - "I Knew I Loved You" by Savage Garden, "Kiss Me" by Sixpence None The Richer, "Until The Time Is Through" by Five.

Hi Carrie

How about send your daughter to the slaughter / iron maiden! thats what my hubby wanted me to walk into church to but we settled for tradition and good old Bet Midler Wind Beneath My Wings !!
xx

We wanted "Power of Love" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood (not Huey Lewis and the news!) - stoopid DJ didn't have it so we ended up with "Love is all around" by Wet Wet bloomin Wet. Very memorable!!

Hi Carrie,

Two options - the sloppy version is Savage Garden 'Truly, Madly, Deeply' which I love due to the film of the same title but it is unfortunately unrelated to the said film. Or alternatively David Bowie 'Space Oddity' - always a favourite with the Major Tom's lol!!

Have a great wedding though x!

What about Jhon Legend - Orinary people

xx

Hi Carrie,

We had 'Lets get it on' by Marvin Gaye for our first dance last summer.

What a classic!

Justin & Fran

The thong song?

:P

Jokes.

The thong song?

:P

Jokes.

How about Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol from Eyes Open.

Here's a verse from it:

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

JUGGLING BABIES BY BARRY LOUIS POLISAR (LYRICS), lets face it you will be...

or

well that is if Maj Tom can fire loaded shells while on exercise hahaha...

just kiddin, good luck

Hi Carrie,
what about "your my first, my last, my everything", by the king of lurrrrrve Barry White

Hi carrie!

may i suggest Extreme, More than Words for your first dance. i love that song so much and its so perfect for your wedding

All the best

Alex

Hi Carrie,

how about Shut uppa ya face, by Joe Dolce?
