    This is by far my favorite post. I am working on mine now... So far I know for sure I'm and coming down the aisle to giving myself by jHud, bridal party ceremony entrance is 1 plus 1 Beyonce... Which may now change to Alicia Keys that's how strong by love is thanks to my wedding date twin @Mrs. BG. Our fist dance is a a couple of forevers which is mighty popular on here it seems. Still working on exit song but I have a few in mind. I'm trying to find a great mother/daughter song. My Daddy is in heaven (hardest part of wedding planning) so my dance will be with my Mom.

    This is such a great thread! I have no clue about any of my songs except the father/daughter dance. We'll be dancing to Frankie Beverly & Maze's "I Just Wanna Thank You". I think I want Stevie Wonder's "As" for the parent's entrance but I'm afraid that it may be too fast

    All I have so far is I'm walking down the aisle to Anthony Hamilton's "The Point of it All" , Our Sand Ceremony song is going to be "The one he Kept me for" by Maurette Brown Clark and our first dance will be "Spend my life with you" by Eric Benette ft. Tamia.

    That's still far away to think about for me, however, I would for sure use "Just the two of us" by Grover Washington Jr.

    THIS HAS HELPED ME A LOT!!!! I was having trouble with helping my FH's Garter Removal & Toss songs, as well as our 1st dance I have the slow dance part but seems like nowadays everyone has more than a slow dance for the 1st dance now. It's like they transition into faster songs with a little dance for each.

    I need help for a father/daughter dance!!! My father is actually my step father who came into my life when I was 15. We didn't really have a great relationship in the early days, however as I have grown through my 20's and 30's we have become closure. There are so many songs about a girl and her daddy when growing up but we didn't really have any of those moments. ANYTHING anyone can offer I am open too!
