Okay I am having a problem with the wedding song!

Question

My fiance wants to dance to Echo-by trapt..that was our fist slow dance we danced too when we were going out..but this song is not slow dance material..and its not a wedding song material..idk what are your opinions? Am I just over thinking this!?

Answer 1

Everyone usually chooses a softer, slower song for their first dance, but if this song has special meaning to you, then I say go for it. I have a special attachment to Dig by Incubus, and like Echo, it's not wedding song material. I also think there's something to be said about a louder, faster song playing while you and your husband are dancing slowly only paying attention to each other. That would be so cool. Plus, if the slower wedding songs have no emotional attachment to you, then why choose them? Don't you want something that invokes that same special feeling you had when you first danced together? Go with what you feel, not what tradition demands.

Thanks.

Answer 3

Your first dance song should be something special to you.  Who cares if it's not exactly slow dance material?  It should be something that has sentimental value and makes you feel good inside.  I'd go with the song your fiance wants! :)

Answer 4

Your first dance as a married couple should have sentimental value to you, and shouldn't necessarily follow the traditional, and to be honest, corny, wedding songs which you hear played over and over at different  weddings. If the song conjures up memories of your love and devotion, then you should go with it.

Answer 5

Vonnie, go on youtube together.  Thats what we did.  We found a song that we both agreed on because, we didn't have a "song."  You have to agree because it's for the both of you.  Echo isn't really a dance song for first dance with all eyes on you at the reception.  However if you in the end agree with him then who cares what others may think.  It has to be mutual!!
