May I Have this Dance?
Oh that most important of decisions, your first dance song! Months away though it may be, selecting the appropriate tune has me up at night. See my fiance and I have quite varied taste in music and selecting the song sets such a tone for the evening. If I choose too sappy my mother may never recover, too cheesy and guests will be put off the hors d’oeuvres! So I’ve compiled a list of Vintage Classic’s and Indie Favorites to help you all brainstorm at home. Any suggestions would be much appreciated, but for me, just say no to Butterfly Kisses.
Vintage Classic Love Songs
A Kiss to Build a Dream On – Louis Armstrong
I Can’t Give You Anything But Love – Ella Fitzgerald
S’Wonderful – Diana Krall
Wink & A Smile – Harry Conick Jr.
Side by Side – Puppini Sisters (Check these gals out, they’re amazing!)
