alternative or indie songs for first dance

leah, on April 21, 2013 at 2:51 PM Posted in Planning 0 6

My fiance and I really like the band spoon. We are looking for a first dance song that is kind of in the style of "don't you evah", but the lyrics dont really work for a wedding. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    How about Spoon's "Paper Tiger"-- may be hard to dance to, but the lyrics are perfect for a wedding Smiley smile

    Some bands I think you will like and might have what you are looking for:

    Passion Pit

    Phoenix

    French Kicks

    We ended up using the song "Sparks" by Coldplay. Thank you for your suggestions.
