Bees, what was your first dance song? Extra points for quirky/alternative (haha). We like “My Girl” but it’s a bit too fast.
Thank you!

Some suggestions from music I love: Hold you in my arms by Ray Lamontagne, Everlong (acoustic) Foo Fighters, Wonderful Tonight Eric Clapton, Parabol by Tool, Maybe Im amazed by Paul McCartney, Groovy Kind of love (any version), Wonderwall (Ryan Adams version) Letting the Cables Sleep by Bush, Nothing Else Matters (Metallica) Colorblind by Counting Crows
We’re using ‘Paint My Love’ by Michael Learns to Rock.
It’s been ‘our song’ for years and Fiance actually had it playing in the background when he proposed.
The words are gorgeous and it’s slow enough 🙂
We went with “I’m Yours” by Joel Plaskett. It was perfect. It was a good speed and not too long.
These are all good! more please! I need songs in general too haha
Not married yet but I really want our first dance to be to a Father John Misty Song. I’m thinking “Chateau Lobby #4” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6NuYJ0RzRg) or “When you’re Smiling and Astride Me” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eg4xkW2Zt5A)
We have a faster tempo song that isn’t a usual 1st dance song. It’s “life is better with you” by Michael Franti and spearhead. I love the lyrics, and more upbeat music suits us . I always sing this to my Fiance.
Had a hard time choosing between Lovesong -311/The Cure and what we ended up choosing, You Are The Best Thing – Ray LaMontagne (slightly upbeat as well but it was perfect.)
FI’s always wanted our first dance to be to “Blue Moon” by Frank Sinatra, so that’s what it shall be! 🙂
Waiting to hear back which songs are in our band’s repertoire, but our top picks in order are:
1) A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hTsUwmXavk
2) The Way You Look Tonight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gab2Vuz2Nk
3) Unforgettable: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fy_JRGjc1To
