    We decided to opt for a more "modern" bridal waltz and we used a Jack Johnson song called "Better Together". Here is the first few lines of the song (so sweet!)

    There's no combination of words
    I could put on the back of a postcard
    No song that I could sing
    But I can try for your heart,
    our dreams, and they are made out of real things
    like a shoebox of photographs
    with sepia-toned loving

    Really mellow, peaceful and lovely song - I cried the whole way through!!

    Other songs used on the night were:

    Entrance Song: I'm a Believer by Smashmouth
    Cake Cutting: Icecream by Sarah McLachlan
    Father/Daughter: My Girl by The Temptations
    Final/Farewell Dance: Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Greenday

    During the open dancing part of the night we had a mixture of oldies and newies so I think all bases were covered. I wouldn't worry too much about what other people will think (ie. The Oldies with the Adam Sandler song - which I really wanted!!) - in the end it will be your moment and your memory and you should represent it with a song that you both love!

    Another suggestion is "Iris" by The Goo Goo Dolls

    I walked down the aisle to an acoustic version of Everlong by Foo Fighters played by my brother.... Our bridal waltz was 2 songs... the 1st was Miracle by Foo Fighters which then broke into the original version of Everlong... which was great to watch my grandparents bopping away to!!
    We also played Forever by Ben Harper and Gold To Me by Ben Harper, and a few other songs that I will remember when I am less sleepy.
    Definitely let us all know which songs you choose.
    All the best.
