DP and I can't agree - he wants Enrique Iglesias - Hero and I would like Michael Buble's Everything. Neither of us will budge so are looking for a compromise !

We Had 'Crazy For You' by Madonna, still makes me go weak at the knees when I hear it 14 years on

Gerry Rafferty's 'Baker Street'. And a floor-length dress means you look great dancing even if you can't dance...

Don't want to miss a thing - Aerosmith,
with a burst of 3 Lions in the middle....

'Into my Arms' by Nick Cave.

Gorgeous. Sigh

I love this song too, it's perfect for a first dance - Grow old with me by Mary Chapin Carpenter - so beautiful. I think John Lennon wrote it.

'Love Shack' by the B52s. Not very romantic!

Simply the Best - Tina Turner

We had 'More than Words' by Extreme

apparently it showed my age !! Cheek, I was pretty young when it was in the charts tho! Our band learnt it for us and played it beautifully.

Unfortuntely, dh too well ''watered'' to dance with me, so had to dance it with my Dad until dh had dried out enough to dance it with me again later!

We had Primal scream Everybody needs somebody and India Arie Walk with me The lyrics are fab and it's a bit more up-beat.

Seems like only yesterday

SOLOisMeredithGrey · 25/07/2009 12:01

Sailing by Rod Stuart first time, but we didn't choose it, the DJ did as we'd completely forgotten the first dance record! Yes! record it was 1984!

Second wedding it was Unchained Melody by The Richeous Brothers.

Amazed by Lonestar. Beautiful song

pointydog · 25/07/2009 20:32

I cannot imagine all these women in long bride dresses shimmying around to these sorts of songs. Doesn't it look a bit silly and undignified?

sayithowitis · 31/07/2009 23:55

Can't help falling in love by Elvis.

OmegaMummy · 01/08/2009 00:09
