Mine was wearing white by Melinda Schneider and Michael Carr.
It is a country song!
Ours was Arithmetic by Brooke Fraser.
"Arithmetic"
I've been staring at the sky tonight
Marvelling and passing time
Wondering what to do with daylight
Until I can make you mine
You are the one I want, you are the one I want
I've been thinking of changing my mind
It never stays the same for long
But of all the things I know for sure
You're the only certain one
You are the one I want, you are the one I want
I've been counting up all my wrongs
One sorry for each star
See I'd apologise my way to you
If the heavens stretched that far
You are the one I want, you are the one I want
[Chorus]
I won't find what I am looking for
If I only "see" by keeping score
'Cos I know now you are so much more than arithmetic
'Cos if I add, if I subtract
If I give it all, try to take some back
I've forgotten the freedom that comes from the fact
That you are the sum
So you are the one
I want
When the years are showing on my face
And my strongest days are gone
When my heart and flesh depart this place
From a life that sung your song
You'll still be the one I want
You'll still be the one I want
You'll still be the one I want
You'll still be the one I want

Ours was 'Best years of our lives' by the 'Baha Men'! We loved it, it's on the 'Shrek' soundtrack and we went to dancing lessons to learn a dance especially for it!
We kept it as a surprise from everyone, the MC announced we were doing our "first dance as husband and wife" and when the music started and we started dancing everyone stood up and cheered!! It was so fun!:smiliedance:
I loved the music we had during the ceremony and the reception so much we gave everyone wedding soundtrack cds instead of sugared almonds or chocolates.:yes:
When they were waiting for me to arrive at the ceremony they played 'This old love - Lior', I walked 'down the isle'(or through the park!) to 'Jupiter - Jewel'. We had 'At Last - Etta James' during the ceremony and 'Dela (why the dog howls)' - I've forgotten who sings it... But I first heard it in George of the Jungle.. When they introduced us as husband and wife after the ceremony ended.
We entered the reception to 'Captain Crash and the Beauty Queen from Mars - Bon Jovi' and cut the cake to 'Next 100 years - also Bon Jovi' (Dh is a fan!). When it was all over we played 'closing time'.
I still put the cd on and dance around, I love the music and some of it was picked years before I'd even MET dh!!
Congratulations and best of luck for your wedding JesLiz! I hope it's as fun as mine was!

I'm not married, nor am I planning my wedding...
But I know it will be something old. I would happily dance to classical music/opera because I love it, but I don't think DP would be too thrilled with that... so I'd probably choose something like At Last by Etta James, or Moon River by Frank Sinatra or something.
Lior - This Old Love. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZxeZGHAS7U&feature=related) Fantastic song and he is an incredible Australian artist. :D :D I LOVE that song.

Ours was Aerosmith "Don't Wanna Miss a Thing."
And the 2nd song was my absolute fav- Peter Catera "Glory of Love"
We had "Someone Like You" by Van Morrison. Every song I liked hubby didn't & vice versa, then watched Bridget Jones's Diary, heard the song at the end & decided it was ours!!!:valentine:

our first dance was savage garden truly madly deeply
i also walked down aisle to faith hill and tim mc graw singing its your love ... i love that song
I chose 'The wonder of you' by Elvis.
This is exactly what my DH and I feel for each other. It's a bit old fashioned but it was just so right!

When no-one else can understand me
When everything I do is wrong
You give me hope and consolation
You give me strength to carry on
And youre always there to lend a hand
In everything I do
Thats the wonder
The wonder of you
And when you smile the world is brighter
You touch my hand and Im a king
Your kiss to me is worth a fortune
Your love for me is everything
Ill guess Ill never know the reason why
You love me like you do
Thats the wonder
Our was "it's your love" by tim mcgraw and faith hill, was because that was the song that he had playing when he proposed to me, I walked down the hill to the hidden track (just music) on the lee keraghan hat town album.

we are planning to have "unchained Melody" by Righteous Brothers for our first dance song as it has both a significant meaning in both of our lives so we think it will be perfect :D
ours was "days like this" van morrison, followed by Under my skin, the Bono and frank sinatra version.
Hubby wanted "still havent found what i'm looking for"by U2!!:laughing:
Ours was 'This I swear' by Nick Lachey (theme song from the newlyweds show)....hopefully ours won't end like his marriage to Jessica! lol
Ours was Amazed, by Lonestar :valentine:
