Always, Bon Jovi. We were young, but still love it! ❤️
Married 20 years though x

By the river by groove armada

Over and over again by nathan sykes.
I didnt choose it my dh did and it was perfect

Fucksgiven · 26/10/2018 23:48

What a wonderful World. Louis Armstrong.

Armchairanarchist · 26/10/2018 23:50

Absolute Beginners by Bowie. We've been married twenty three years.

I'm not married or engaged, but if I ever do get married (unlikely) the first dance song will be Lovecats by the Cure, to which I will choreograph a special cat-like dance.

louderthan · 26/10/2018 23:56

Or possibly something like Anarchy in the UK by the Sex Pistols

Weenurse · 26/10/2018 23:57

What a wonderful world, Louie Armstrong

Bryan Adams, Heaven. Still gives me goosebumps 24 years later 💕

You do something to me - Paul weller
We only got married last year and are in our 20s but nothing modern seemed quite right.
We danced to this in our first, tiny, crappy first flat after a few glasses of wine so it seemed just right

MrsCatE · 27/10/2018 00:15

@louderthan. I had the Ramones! I hope you do get married soon and share film of your first dance here; I applaud your choice - much better than 'Close to me'!

SmokeAndBone · 27/10/2018 00:15

'She wears my ring'
The DJ don't ask us, he just played it.
FFS.
Makes me angry even 30 years later

Always is about someone having an affair.

I played with awedfing band years ago and it baffles us how many couples asked for it without listening.

We had put your arms around me by Texas.

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 27/10/2018 00:22

Eternal Flame by The Bangles. We had an argument with the DJ who wanted to play the Atomic Kitten version instead because he thought it was "fresher". Twat.

CumbrianExile · 27/10/2018 00:25

Nothing else matters by Metallica.

meow1989 · 27/10/2018 00:39

We had "It's only time" by the Magnetic Fields, sung/played by a band. We picked it out when we were loved struck teenagers 8 years before 😊

MaMaMaMySharona · 27/10/2018 12:00

I’m getting married next year and currently trying to pick between It Must Be Love by Madness and You Make My Dreams by Hall & Oates

Looking for other suggestions too, watching this thread closely Grin

Mummyme87 · 27/10/2018 15:21

Getting married in 2020 and considering options. Possibly ‘shut up and dance’

jasmine1880 · 27/10/2018 20:40

Not married but out of my options my favourite ones is
I'll be by Edwin McCain

HabbyHadno · 27/10/2018 20:47

I Wanna Dance With Somebody - Whitney. More of an accident as my bridesmaids chose it. We didn't want a first dance but they pulled us in and then ran off.

WhenEnoughIsEnough · 27/10/2018 20:49

I don't wanna miss a thing-aerosmith

amysaurus87 · 27/10/2018 20:50

Dreams by Gabrielle.

I also had a father/daughter dance to China in Your Hands by T'Pau which was number 1 the day I was born

Cleanermaidcook · 27/10/2018 20:51

You raise me up by Josh Groben. It was between that and the reason by Hoobastank.

Ginger1982 · 27/10/2018 20:52

A Thousand Years, Cristina Perri 💖
