To have this song for my first dance?

[fairynick]

Loving is easy - Rex Orange County.

I love it because of the simplicity, really nice lovey dovey lyrics, nothing too serious, just all round good vibes.
Love his crooner voice, and the brass etc makes it feel quite timeless and weddingy, but I also like the fact that it’s a really current song. Me and DP love it etc.

My DM thinks IABU because of the swearing. There will be no children at the wedding and both of our grandparents are all unfortunately passed away, so there won’t be anyone over the age of 60 at the funeral. I don’t see any of my guests being offended. Was just wondering if anyone else had had their first dance to a song with swear words and how it was received by the guests etc!

I meant at the wedding, not at the funeral!

Sorry op that really did make me laugh !! Yanbu with that choice

We had I Fink You Freeky by die Antwoort. It's quite sweary. The older people seemed to enjoy it, they were all pissed by then though.

Hope it isn’t like a funeral, otherwise I’ll have more to worry about than a bloody song! 😂

I’m going to tell DM to bore off I think.

@YolandiFuckinVisser that’s actually fab! Love the idea of the old people going along with that!

You could always use the "radio edit" which excludes the offending line.
eg.

@jcyclops Not even sure how I didn’t think of that, thank you so so much! I think you’ve got us the perfect compromise!

Your wedding, your choice.

If you were going to have death metal all night when the crowd are more classical fm, then maybe I could see a comprise but its 1 song.

@WhatsTheEffingPoint your username makes your comment so much better! I agree with you too, doubt anyone will even care or remember either!

It's a lovely song OP, go for it!
