Let's Call the Whole Thing Off by Harry Connick Jr from When Harry Met Sally.
We were looking for a song but hadn't been used to death and we are polar opposites in most regards so the song is funny and us. We took dance lessons and it was AWESOME!

Come Away with Me by Norah Jones. H and I have very different tastes in music, and Norah Jones is one artist we could compromise on. DJ, but I regret it.
Is this love. Bob Marley. It's an awesome song and we honeymooned in Jamaica. I wanted something that was timeless and you would hear on the radio every so often.
So, what was your first dance song at your wedding? Have I told you lately that I love you (caribbean style ) Why did you choose that song? We never chose a song--we did a destination wedding in St. Croix and did as little planning as possible. This is the song the band chose to play for our first dance. Bonus q: Did you have a DJ or a band? Steel drum band
The story of the song really hit home for us. After years of searching for the right one for both of us, we'd finally reached the end of that journey and that's what the song portrays.
"Forever" by Ben Harper. DH said he listened to it a lot while planning the proposal, so it was special to him. I had never heard it before, but it suited us perfectly. I still tear up when I hear it.
So, what was your first dance song at your wedding? La Vie En Rose by Louis Armstrong Why did you choose that song? It's short, we love that genre of music, and it was part of Wall-E, a movie H and I really like Bonus q: Did you have a DJ or a band? DJ
Expect a bunch of these from me over the next 6-8 months, lol.

We eloped, so no first dance, and no band. No first dance ever, as a matter of fact. I never danced with my husband. He hated dancing, and I never got him onto a dance floor. It's a regret.
This is currently my top pick but FI isn't sold. The band we're considering does a nice cover of it.
This was out first dance song as well. We picked it for a few reasons. First, Ben Folds is my favorite musician. Second, I sang this song to DH on our first date. So it has always been our song :-) to this day, it still makes me cry!

Our first dance was to "I just wanna dance with you" by George Strait. H picked it and I thought it was cute that that was something he really insisted on. We had a DJ, and wanted cheesy wedding dance songs and dancing, our wedding party did the hokey pokey. Which was fun because our ceremony was super formal and fancy.

Found My Everything by Mary J Blige
I wanted something "At Last" like. I hadn't really searched for a song yet, but if was on her current album at the time, and I loved the song, and fit the bill of what I was looking for.
