  • I absolutely love Keith Urban's song "Making Memories of Us". Such a beautiful song and so appropriate for a first dance.

    Never say never hun! I've been with my OH for 16 months now he always said he would never get married yet he proposed to me 2 weeks ago :D

    So cheer up it might still happen ;)

  • I agree with Steph - if you asked either my husband or me (god that sounds weird :rotfl:) 18 months ago if we would get married we would both have said no with bells on.

    We were asked last week why we had decided to get married and neither of us could answer - must have been the large alcohol measures and the fantastic jewellers that we found in Goa last year on holiday :p.

    We had amazed by Lonestar as our first dance as it was the song playing on the radio that we both heard as we drove away in our cars after our first date 6 years ago(feel free to be sick as it's so cheesy :o)
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    We are having Shania Twain - Still the One as our first dance. And From this Moment is being sung by h2bs sister whilst we sign the register.
  • Ooh two of the best I've ever seen - first was a fairly traditional first dance to Pulp's 'Something Changed' - a really lovely, non-cheesy song. The second was actually the last dance of the night (when the bride and groom were suitably inebriated!), and they treated everyone to their own (copied to the letter) version of 'You're the one that I want' from Grease. It was totally awesome, and they performed it surrounded by all their guests up on the floor in a massive circle round them - amazing, but you gotta be brave to do that one!
