Music Suggestions

Again we are asking for some assistance from our family and friends. Adam and I have discussed our wedding dance and discovered that we don’t have a song. We will be together nine years tomorrow, so with that long of history, how do we not have a song? I’ve seriously asked myself that, but I guess that I don’t have just one song that encompasses me as a person, let alone one song that signifies the two of us and our relationship. We both really seemed to like the classics like Al Greene – “Let’s Stay Together” and Aaron Neville & Linda Ronstadt – “Don’t Know Much”, but those are decades old so we are open to suggestions.

I had kind of pictured my Dad and I dancing to the song “Landslide” by Fleetwood Mac, but then my German co-worker recommended a song called “I Loved her First” by Heartland. Now, I am certainly no country music fan…and I even find the sound of banjos to be painful to the ear. However, this song was beautiful and touching, but I couldn’t get all the way through the 30 second iTunes preview without crying sappily…may not be the scene that I want on my wedding day…my Dad and I already tend to be the teary, sappy ones, so a sappy father daughter song may only make us embarrass ourselves! Hearing that song did make me question my original selection of “Landslide” so if you have any suggestions, send them my way!

If there is anything that you specifically want to hear at the wedding, let us know, also. For instance, if it is a must that the DJ plays the Electric Slide for you to enjoy yourself at a wedding, please let us know or just post a comment.
Thank you kindly.
Love,
Tara

  1. Hey I am not a huge country fan at all but I like “Bless the Broken Road” by Rascal Flats, it’s a cute first dance wedding song.

    Crash by Dave Matthews is amazing or
    You and Me OR Angel both by Dave Matthews…
    I’m don’t know what to tell you, just hope maybe it helped!

  2. Thanks so much, Sharon. I like the lyrics to “Bless the Broken Road” and it seems to speak volumes to our relationship…sorry for making everyone wait for the long awaited wedding. We can’t wait to see you and Greg. Adam really misses you guys!
    BTW, Adam really likes DMB so we may have to go with “Angel”…we’ll see there’s a few months before we must decide. Thanks for your help!
