That's it really. I am (idly) wondering what I'll have, and there seem to be so many great choices - and some terrible ones

@Mrsmummy90

Walked down the aisle to Can't help falling in love (Samantha Harvey version)

First dance to Grow old with you (ortopilot version)

One of the reasons we chose it is because it's a nice short song and we didn't want to have people staring at us for too long lol

We had one that wasn't very familiar to a lot of people - Come Rain or Come Shine by Sarah Vaughan

Oh my god thanks for reminding me that the Wannadies song was what I thought I'd have at my wedding when I was a teenager. Adding it to the list... It's so lovely

An oldie by The Seekers, I'll never find another you. Short and has such lovely words.

A very close second choice was You've got a friend in me, from Toy Story 😁

Still in Love with You by Thin Lizzy

Our wedding band learned it and they were amazing ❤️

The wedding song by Angus and Julia stone,

icelollycraving · 24/02/2021 12:58

At Last. Our wedding singer (Caribbean wedding) didn’t know it and learnt it.

Mumma12345 · 24/02/2021 13:00

[quote hotcrosswhat]@Mumma12345 ohh I love that song, that was very high up on our list!![/quote]
We had so many on our list but Ed was the only we had seen live at that point so that why it was chosen, nearly did choose cold coffee by Ed Sheeran but we used that 1 as we signed the register instead

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 24/02/2021 13:01

Louis Armstrong What a wonderful world. Still feel goosebumpy to this day when I hear it...

happysunr1se · 24/02/2021 13:02

I get the sweetest feeling - Jackie Wilson

dalegirlinthedales · 24/02/2021 13:02

There Is A Light that Never Goes Out by The Smiths- couldn't stand a 'proper' first dance!

Beefstew · 24/02/2021 13:04

It had to be you Harry Connick jr

fightingirish · 24/02/2021 13:05

The voyage by Christy Moore, would be a well known song in Ireland

WhenEnoughIsEnough · 24/02/2021 13:05

We had I don't want to miss a thing by Aerosmith. We wanted something lovey that wasn't too mainstream

SomeRandomerOnBumsnet · 24/02/2021 13:06

At Last, Etta James, we married for the first time in our mid forties so it was v appropriate! Plus its a beautiful, classic love song

LulusMiniEgg · 24/02/2021 13:07

Thinking of you - sister sledge
Not too slow and romantic and people got up to dance pretty quickly!
