Can't pick first dance song

Kristin, on October 2, 2018 at 5:22 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 14

I've always known I wanted to have this one particular song as my first dance song, even before I met FH. But there's a different song that is "our song" that I would also love to use for our first dance. We don't know what to do now. Has anyone had this problem? Any suggestions?

    You can always pick one for the first dance and play the other one at another time, like the cake cutting , for example. Personally, I think it would be more meaningful for you two to dance to “your song”. Just my opinion.

    You could play one for the first dance and one for the last song of the night. That's what we did Smiley smile

    Hi Kristin! The others give some great ideas here Smiley smile Incorporating both of your songs is definitely doable! Out of curiosity, what songs are they?

    We did a 'last slow song' and it was really only us and our bridal party left, so us and the 6 people we are closest to in the world. It was very special. You could use one song for that.

    The one I’ve always wanted is “I Do” by A Rocket To the Moon. Our song is “You and Me” by Penny and the Quarters.

    Can you have your DJ play a portion of the two as a mix?

    Oooooh Kristin, these are great!

    And since they both mean a lot to you, you can definitely get creative & include both in different parts of your reception!

    I love the others' idea of having one as the first dance & the other as the last song Smiley smile

    Use that one song you want as your first dance and use the song that is your "couple song" as the last dance

    Omg I love this song....i walked down the aisle to this song.....there are other times you can use this song if you don't want it to be your first dance....like processional, cake cutting, cocktail hour, seating of the parents....etc....our first song was fast cuz that's our personality.

    I'm so glad!!! We're doing two songs for the ceremony. One while the attendants walk then one for me walking
    The one I'm walking to is, "I Choose You" by Ryann Darling. The attendants are waking to, "Everytime I Close My Eyes" by Babyface.
    Basically it's my FH singing to me then me singing to him, only through these songs.
