For those of you who have Thriller on your list, any plans on doing the thriller dance? My MOH wanted to do it for her wedding but none of us knew it, so when I discovered the website www.thrilltheworld.com which teaches you the dance, I immediately sent it to her and the rest of my BMs in hopes they'll want to join us in doing it.
Any plans on staging a group thriller dance?
This is actually something my fiance and I have talked about a lot - and we are still a full 14 months out and have yet to solidly book anything but the ceremony! But I love that it is a wedding category we both care about and enjoy talking about. We haven't made specific picks yet but here's a sampling of faves...
1. Unchained Melody - Righteous Brothers
2. Can't Help Falling in Love - Elvis
3. Love is All Around - the Troggs
4. I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) - The Proclaimers (we have spent good portions of our relationship 500 or more miles apart and it has become a song that speaks to our relationship!)
5. Over the Rainbow - Israel Kamakawiwo'ole
6. Stand By Me - The Temptations
7. All You Need is Love - The Beatles
8. What is Love - Haddaway
9. Old Time Rock and Roll - Bob Seger
10. You Shook Me All Night Long - ACDC
And I am in love with Lucky by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat and I hope it gets played at our wedding - but I am not sure the fiance is convinced yet! As you can see we're into more classic music (him even moreso than me) but I am sure we'll play some newer stuff as well. I think the music will be one of the biggest things that makes the wedding very us!
