What does this song mean to you? Help!

Bally, on December 17, 2011 at 8:11 PM Posted in Planning 0 8

Hi Ladies,

I am planning to use this song for my first dance:

'A Beautiful Mess' from Jason Mraz:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8Mz_kyRlWY

Now, we love the song and some of the lyrics such as 'what a beautiful mess this is' 'here we are' and also 'oh the wait was so worth it'.

However, I am not native english speaker so I dont know if the rest of the lyrics would really do justice to the fact that its supposed to be a really romantic song, etc.

Could you please tell me what is the meaning for the song to you? Do you personally like it as a 1st dance song?

Please let me know your thoughts!

Thanks! Smiley smile

    Pretty song, I'm not a huge fan of the lyrics for myself but if they fit you go for it!

    It's a really nice song but It doesn't scream wedding to me. I wouldn't want to be called needy or greedy in my wedding song. I agree with Tinkybaki, Lucky is a good song. If you wanted to go a different direction It's over used, but Bless the Broken Road by Rascal Flatts is a great song too, or Shania Twain, You're still the one!

    However It's your wedding and if it fits your situation then go for it!!!

    I love that song. I think if its a good fit use it. None of the lyrics are negative in my opinion.

    The word "mess" doesn't speak wedding to me. There are so many beautiful songs out there. Why don't you take a look at the first dance songs at www.weddingmusicentral.com. They were written especially for that moment by hit writers.
