So, me and my fiance are getting married on the 14th!!

super excited =]

but we don't have any wedding songs picked out yet.. I know there are some older couples on here, and I was just wondering what kind of songs you had play at your wedding? Like the songs you and your lover first danced to =]

Or just some songs that YOU would get married too etc..

love to hear from ya! :D

Wow, congratulations! As a newlywed myself, I can certainly relate to your excitement. We got married last August (7 months ago), and it was wonderful. Definitely a day to remember. As for music, our slow dance song was Berlin's "Take My Breath Away." For our father/bride and mother/groom dance song, we had Celin Dion's "Because You Loved Me." We had a live band that specialized in 80s music (our favorite), but also had a broad repertoire for other types of music. The band played recorded music when they went on breaks. They brought their own, but I gave them an iPod with an eclectic music mix on it. :)

I am one of the older ones. We had Turn Around and Look At Me by the vogues. I also like I will Always Love You by Whitney Houston. Just some little friendly advice. Do all your prep work for your big day. When the big day comes, forget everything and just go with the flo, do not fret over anything that may go wrong. Just have a ball. I have been married twice. My first wedding I never enjoyed, worried about everything. My second, OMG the best time of my life and everyone had a blast. We even had people on the street dancing. So do what you can before your day to make it go smooth. Then just enjoy and have fun.
Congratulations on your BIG DAY :D

Congrats, but can I strongly advise *against* "I Will Always Love You"? That's a break-up song...

Congrats!! I'm an "older" half of a whole. I will be married 47 years in October. Our song was "I've got a crush on you Sweetie Pie"..Frank Sinatra. Daddy's little Girl for me and my Dad to dance to. I don't remember what my husband and his Mom danced to. My Daughter-in-law danced with her father to "Did you ever know you're my Hero....I think the name of it is Wind beneath my Wings...from Beaches. EVERYONE cried for that one. I hope your marriage will be as long and as happy as mine is. The only advice I can give you is ..never loose your sense of humor. We raised 5 sons, and spent 47 years laughing at their antic's and we are still laughing. No matter what happens, make your home a happy one.

I agree with your Dad. I have been married three times and my biggest regret was never having my "dream" wedding. I always wanted to be married in my own gardens and to ride in a horse drawn carriage. So my advise is, follow your dreams and make this a very special day for you.

Well, since Ariel wrote this thread on March 30th, I wonder if she was married on April 14th.

How about an update, Ariel? What was your song? Where did you honeymoon? come on...give!!

Yes she is already married and has moved to Michigan. A newbie I believe found this thread and without reading the date posted on it and gave it a big bump.
