"The First Dance" songs

[AGDee]

First wedding: "Always" by Atlantic Starr (barf)
Second wedding: "All I Ask" from Phantom of the Opera, which was much more creative... I'm not sure I've heard it at another wedding as the first dance.

My Daddy/Daughter dance at both was "Color My World" by Chicago, one of my dad's favorite songs. I never considered myself "Daddy's Little Girl" and wasn't going there with that song. My relationship with my dad wasn't typical until the last 10 years or so.

FI and I thought about doing "All I Ask" from Phantom for our first dance. It was actually a really tough pick between that and the one we ended up deciding on ("Come what May" from Moulin Rouge). Our last dance at the reception will be "Thank You" by Dido.

My b/f and I have been together for 2 years, but I really doubt any engagement will happen soon.

One song of ours its "Somewhere Out There" from the movie "American Tail" by James Ingram and Linda Ronstadt. 3 months after we started dating, he was going to India for 3 months for a Hindi language program, and I was spending the summer in New Orleans doing an AmeriCorps VISTA volunteer program. One night before he left he showed me this song and was like these lyrics are what I think of when as we're going to be apart this summer. As a surprise I went and downloaded the song and put it on a CD to give to him right before he left.

There's a couple of other songs that I love, and sometimes, yes I am into the sappy love songs. Some of my favorites have already been mentioned on here. Others I like are "How Did I Fall In Love With You" by the Backstreet Boys, "I'll Be" by Edwin McCain, "This I Swear" by Nick Lachey, "I Could Fall In Love" by Selena, or "It's Your Love" by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.
