    My girls and I are walking down the aisle to Michael Buble's rendition of The Way You Look Tonight

    Recessional I am not sure about yet...

    First Dance is between I Swear John Michael Montgomery and Clint Black/Lisa Hartman Black When I Said I do.

    His dance with his mom.. I'm sure i will have to facilitate this choice as he isn't very good at picking things on his own.

    My dance with my Daddy... Stealing Cinderella Chuck Wicks

    @ Carole B- I love the songs. I grew up listening to many of those. My parents are hippies and had good taste in music :-)

    @Justine...lmao...Thanks! It is nice to read someone knows our music on WW. I read song lists on here and I feel so old because I have to google them. You are a year older than my daughter. She hates my music. However, my 16 year old loves it. : )

    My girls will walk to the instrumental of my song and when I come the lady in my choir will begin to sing. The song is "The one he kept for me" (see below).

    We are going to have the minister of music sing the lords prayer during the ceremony and our first dance will be to Brian McKnight "Never felt this way" sung by my FS uncle.

    I don't know if you will get this on time (you're getting married tomorrow). But go with something HIGH-ENERGY. You probably should have talked this over with your DJ, but in a pinch, here's a few suggestions:

    I Gotta Feeling - Black Eyed Peas (modern)

    The Wedding March - Mendelsohn (traditional)

    All You Need Is Love - The Beatles (old-fashioned and sappy)

    I found all the songs I'm using at www.weddingmusiccentral.com. My bridesmaids will walk down to "Friends Are Quiet Angels". I will walk down to a new bride's entrance song "Here She Comes". I'm really excited about that. Our father daughter dance will be "Angel in My Arms" and the mother daughter dance will be "To Be a Woman" which is a tribute to my mom and the mother son dance will be "The Man You've Become". Our last dance will be to "Thank You" - a tribute to all our friends.

    Some that we're still tossing around:

    Recessional: Hey Soul Sister by Train

    1st Dance: Two is Better Than One by Boys Like Girls ft. Taylor Swift

    If we decide to do the bouquet toss: Single Ladies by Beyonce'
