Yeah, you are right. I could totes search for this because it is a pretty frequently asked question. However, whenever it IS posted, I DO listen to each and every song that you all post and I want to see if anyone NEW posts on this thread. Because I seriously have a huge guilty pleasure of first...

Yeah, you are right. I could totes search for this because it is a pretty frequently asked question. However, whenever it IS posted, I DO listen to each and every song that you all post and I want to see if anyone NEW posts on this thread. Because I seriously have a huge guilty pleasure of first dance/ walking down the aisle songs. Both are my favorite parts of the reception/ceremony, respectively. I love ugly crying to myself on a friday night while doing wedding DIYs with a bottle of wine. Who doesn't? Give me something to listen to ladies. Just do it.

….. and for some of my allllll time favorite ugly criers:

    My walking down the aisle song: string quartet cover of All You Need is Love http://youtu.be/1N2AqelSBrs

    My first dance song: Unit 4+2 Concrete & Clay http://youtu.be/ougF5Q78tyo It's more upbeat, I don't think this will be a teary moment, hopefully!

    @SB - I'm glad I'm not the only one who tears up during vows; even during the bridezillas vows when I know in my heart of hearts those people won't make it through their honeymoon.

    Walking to 'Sweet Child o' Mine' by Gn'R

    Processional to 'Never Tear us Apart' by INXS

    Haven't decided yay or nay on a first dance, I'm thinking nay.

    I'm walking down the aisle to A Thousand Years by The Piano Guys. FH loves that version and HE gets teary listening to it.

    Recessional is going to be Brighter Than the Sun by Colbie Caillat.

    First Dance Song? I have no clue and will not know until it's played at our wedding. FH is in charge of picking out the song and it'll be a surprise to me. I'm ok with this because he takes music very seriously and I know he'll pick an amazing song.

    Not positive yet, but right now, I'm walking down the aisle to the vitamin string quartet verison of "can't help falling in love", and our first dance is a toss up between "hey pretty girl" by kip moore and "More than you'll ever know" by travis tritt (FH's top choice, its a little too 90s country twang to me)

    This is a source of contention between us right now because we don't like ANY of the same music.

    @Future Mrs. D..I listened to her's and then found another version by Andrea Bocelli...OMG...Now I am not sure which one we'll use. I guess I'll have to buy them all and have FH help me pick.

    I am walking to "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri and our DJ is mixing that and "I Won't Give Up on Us" by Jason Mraz for our first dance.

    Sometimes when I am alone, I will put on "A Thousand Years" and imagine standing at the end of the aisle with my dad, looking at FH and walking down the aisle and just bawl away! My hope is that if I do that often enough, when it's time to actually do it, I will be able to at least not "ugly cry". LOL, love the pictures!

    I am thinking of walking down to an instrumental/acoustic version of Journey's "Faithfully". I'm just not sure about the rest of the song but then again it's only instrumental and the part everyone will know is "I'm forever yours, faithfully". Is that weird? Any advice or thoughts is appreciated! The version we love is on iTunes and is by "acoustic guitar guy". He also plays an amazing instrumental of "Marry Me" by Train.

    I'm about 90% sure our first dance song will be Kenny Chesney's "Me and You".

    I don't know really. I'm thinking of 'call me maybe ' because ti's fun and makes sense for us and our story, but I'd be surprised if I don't decide at the last minute Smiley winking
