So what will be your wedding song? Any recommendation? My wedding is less than 2 months. I will be putting down a $1,000 deposit when my fiancee lands in POE October 5.

What will be a good song for a mother/son dance? Let's share some ideas.

You should choose a song that means something to the both of you, not just a random song that someone else suggests. In my opinion.

Hey buddy! Well I think is a very tough decision but once you hear your song you'll know immediately. For my father daughter dance we are dancing to Wind Beneath My Wings by Bette Midler. It has a lot

And if you can't see that that's a joke, too bad. Because I've read some of these suggestions and I just kept rolling my eyes. Dear god, Somebody said Nsync.... Are you kidding me?!

Our wedding was almost 5 month ago :) I didnt selected a daughter/ father but my husband and I sure selected one for our 1st dance as a married couple. The song name is "kissing you" by Desree. Is the soundtrack of Romeo and Juliet with Leonardo Di Caprio and Claire Daines. Is absolutely magical and absolutely romantic.

This will be our first song. It's called I'm So Glad, by a Canadian musician named Royal Wood. We went to see him in concert the first week we spent together :)
Might get our band to learn it and speed it up just a touch. Not sure if we'll go with the band playing it or the original recording yet.

Also... I deserve a pat on the back - this is the first time I've figured out how to embed a youtube video! Yay me! :thumbs: Edited by KTandTommy

We have a couple in mind but it doesn't hurt to get some other ideas. Especially of the mother/son dance.

It took me like 2 or 3 months to find the perfect song for our first dance. Half in English, half in Spanish -- trust me, it was hard to find something that wasn't really about breaking up, fighting, hating each other, etc. -- but finally we chose something that we both like and is romantic. <3

Hire The Dan Band.

Orrr..

Beatles - all you need is love ( or black bird. Even though the lyrics aren't exactly about that, it can still sound as a sweet song)

Dave Matthews - In my life (originally by Lennon; I'll link to this video at the end of this post)

Stevie wonder - isn't she lovely

Madonna - I'll remember

Madness - Our house

Lynard skynard - simple man

Green day - time of your life

It's tough when not knowing which genre you(or your mom) would prefer or like. If your mom is really into the softer stuff, then Celine Dion; Because of you.
