    I'm curious to hear what song you and your FI/husband chose for your first dance...

    Will/Did you go with something cute and fun, slow and tear-inducing, outrageous and untraditional?

    I have no idea what I will be doing and would love to hear from you ladies! 

    Here are a few of my choices (very subject to change):

    1. Sea of Love--Cat Power 

    2. The Girl--City and Colour (acoustic version)

    3. You Really Got a Hold on Me--She and Him 

    My man isn't much of a dancer so the song will have to be sway-able! haha.

    We're dancing to 'I Can't Help Falling in Love With You' by Elvis. Whenever we got engaged, we were at dinner and they asked us to dance and that was what they played.  So while we were dancing we were talking about dancing to that song at our wedding!

    Out of your song choices I like song choice number 3!

    Lots of good and unique music choices in here!

    @Prewitt I had a relative who chose "Iris" too. It's a beautiful song! Tear jerker for sure. 

    @curlygirl Love Ingrid. I'm a big fan of "You and I" and actually toyed with the idea of using it for our first dance. I think it would be better suited for music during dinner though.

    We're doing 'Dance me to the end of love' by Madeleine Peyroux. It's sort of spunky enough that we can throw in a few spins or something but not so fast that we also can't do a quick sway :).

    You really can't go wrong with Ingrid Michaelson :).

    We are dancing to James Morrison's "You Make It Real". We have listened to so many songs, but this one is really perfect and not overly done. We both love it. Now FI will stop whatever he is doing, and listen to it if he hears it! (We were watching "He's Just Not That Into You" the other day and I was surprised they used it in the movie.) Great song, and I am going to cry like a big baby when we dance to it!
