Do you all have 'A' / 'Your' song? Even after almost 8 years we don't!

No idea at all on the first dance. I've been googling away but still nothing concrete...

    We have a couple of songs that our kind of "our songs". I think we will go with the classic "Stand by Me" for our first dance. I love the words. :)

    We've got a few "our songs". It was easy to pick ours though. It brings me to tears think that's the first song I'm dancing to. We're using a song from one of my favorite artists Meiko "Reasons to Love You".

    Just listen for a song that brings you to that moment of almost breaking down. When I got engaged, this was the first song I thought of due to the circumstances of how our relationship began so it meant something. Keep listening and you'll hear it :)

    Stand by Me is great, I'll have a listen to the other too :-)

    I like 'At Last' by Etta James but I'm not sure if its over done? The only song I'm quite keen on at the moment is One Republic - Something I Need but it could be perceived as a bit depressing?

    Thanks for the replies, nice to hear what others are doing!

    We have picked our first dance song, but now I am trying to pick songs for the processional, recessional, and the dance with my dad. I want to do something besides the wedding march, but am having such a hard time choosing! Right now I just have a running list of songs we might like.

    Our song, when we were living 2 hours apart, was 'Telephone line' by ELO.

    We are huge fans for Jeff Lynne and ELO. That wasn't a great first dance song but we decided on 'Need her Love' by them and I cannot wait. Such a unique and beautiful song by our favorite 70's group!

    We're using songs that mean something to us :). For instance my bridal party and I are walking down the aisle to "home" by Phillip Phillips.

    That's the best advice I can give when choosing songs. Choose with your heart. It's your day, you know what fits and what's meant to be. :)

    I actually plan on walking down the aisle to etta james "at last" but as far as the first song goes. . . :frown: we cannot decide. He wants "loves me like Jesus does" but I wanted something that was more for us then how i love him.
